Description

Take the stress out of deciphering and navigating the Pompeii archaeological site on a tour of the excavations with an archaeologist as your guide. Enjoy included skip-the-line entry tickets.
Exploring Pompeii on your own can be difficult and at times baffling. The vast site is one of the best-preserved reminders of what life was like during the Roman Empire. This specially designed tour unveils the Buried City to bring you closer to its amazing history and tragic end.

Led by an official Pompeii tour guide and trained archaeologist, you’ll wander the fully preserved streets of Pompeii. Visit the most interesting and emotional sights from a city that was buried under the massive eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Go beyond the best-known locations to get an in-depth look at life in Pompeii.

Skip the long lines to enter the ruins and stroll past the remains of shops, temples, public baths, and houses that comprised the once-thriving city. Hear fascinating stories about life in the Roman Republic and see how ordinary people lived nearly 2,000 years ago.

See the remains of a Roman bakery where the food is still almost intact, the Temple of Apollo and the Roman Forum, and even an ancient supermarket and an old cemetery. Marvel at the eerie and heart-wrenching plaster casts of those caught in the eruption at the exact moment of their death.

An undisputable highlight of your Pompeii tour will be the House of the Vettii, a fascinating private home that was recently reopened to the public following restoration works. Wander through its spacious atrium and courtyard and be transported 2,000 years back in time as you gaze upon the stunningly preserved decor.

You’ll also go to one of the old brothels (if appropriate for your group) and stroll along the old city walls for panoramic views of Naples.

Touring in a small group, you will never struggle to hear your guide and will have plenty of time to ask any questions you might have. These expert archaeologists have dedicated their lives to the study of this city, and no one else is better qualified to introduce you to this jewel of world heritage.
