Program details

Seeing Pompeii on your own can be difficult and baffling, so we have designed our Best of Pompeii Tour: Unveiling The Buried City to bring you closer to the amazing history and tragic end of Pompeii than you could ever get on your own (unless you have a degree in archaeology). Led by an official Pompeii tour guide – most of whom are trained archaeologists – you will wander the fully-preserved streets of Pompeii and visit the most interesting and heart-wrenching sights from the city that were lost under the massive eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.

Highlights
- Be shown around town by Pompeii experts
- Feel free to ask as many questions as you can muster up
- Queue hop and save time by doing so

Your day starts with a visit of Pompeii. When we arrive in Pompeii, you’ll skip the lines and be met by one of our expert, English-speaking guides. As they walk you through the shops, temples, public baths and houses that make up the thriving city, they’ll tell you all about the fascinating stories of ancient life and how it was ripped apart by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. See how people lived nearly 2,000 years ago with stops at a Roman bakery, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Forum, an ancient supermarket and to top it off: an old cemetery. The tour will also showcase the touching and eerie plaster death casts of unfortunate people caught in the eruption and based on whether it is suitable or not, the group might roam around ancient brothel. The walk is capped off with a stroll along the city walls offering top notch views of both Naples and Capri.



With a group of 15 people or less, you won’t ever struggle to hear your guide and you will have plenty of time to ask all the questions you’re going to have about ancient life in this fantastic city that has managed to keep it's beauty and history in tact . Our expert Pompeii guides have dedicated their lives to the study of this city and there are no better people to introduce you to this gem!
