Discover our Private Virtual Tour inside the Ruins of Pompeii. Thanks to high-tech Virtual Reality headsets, you will be able to look beyond imagination and witness the vibrant city life just before the eruption of 79 A.C. Our storyteller (licensed tour guide), will lead you into a faithful reconstruction of 12 famous locations. You will admire the ancient splendour of the Forum (the heart of the city), the imposing Basilica, as well as the bustling old Bakery’s life (The Bakery and Shops and Millstones). Give yourself the opportunity to enjoy the gladiators training in the Quadriportico, experience the mysterious nightlife around the Lupanar (inside and outside) and live a theatrical performance in the Large Theatre. Later on, relax yourself into the majestic Thermal Baths (Apodyterium and Tepidarium), and last but not least have a look at the doumus where the old citizens of Pompeii used to live: The House of the Faun and the House of Menander. ARE YOU READY TO JUMP BACK IN TIME?

About Pompeii
Pompeii is a Roman town near Naples frozen in ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, with streets, villas and frescoes preserved beneath the volcano.
Pompeii was a thriving Roman town when Vesuvius buried it under ash and pumice in AD 79. Excavation, begun in the eighteenth century, has uncovered paved streets with stepping stones, shops, bakeries, bathhouses and the forum. The amphitheatre, among the oldest Roman ones to survive, and the grand House of the Faun show the range of life, and plaster casts of the dead record the final moments of some residents.
Top-ranked sights in Pompeii: Pompeii Archaeological Site, Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane), Via dell’Abbondanza.
