Full description

Skip the long ticket lines on this 2-hour guided tour and discover the remains of the Roman city. See ancient ruins, destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, leaving the city buried under mountains of volcanic ash. Your guide will take you to see houses and everyday items that were still almost intact when the city was unearthed. Experience this everyday Roman town, almost like it was under the Roman Empire. Highlights include the Roman Amphitheater, small theater, and public gymnasium. See places where the Romans had their fun and held banquets, and discover frescoes frozen in time, and poignant casts of citizens and their pets.

  • Skip-the-line ticket to Archaeological Park of Pompeii
  • Archaeologist guide

Eraldo (don't think I've spelt that right, sorry) was an excellent guide. He made the whole visit informative and interesting. We joined an earlier group, as arrived ahead of schedule, which suited us. With a 14 year old in tow, we'd opted for the two hour slot, as felt that would be plenty long enough for the whole family. Eraldo sensibly directed us to shaded areas, where possible, in the extreme heat. The audio equipment worked really well and you could easily hear everything he said. Our group numbered 20+ people, but didn't feel overly crowded. Pompeii is a vast site and we were given the option to explore on our own at the end of the tour. We were happy to leave by then and get some lunch and drinks at one of the places near the station. I've wanted to visit for many years and it truly was a memorable experience. Thank you.

It was a memory of a lifetime! Marco was a lot of fun, shared very interesting information and was very patient with us practicing our Italiano! The highlight was unexpected stop at shepard's house, meeting Anthony, having a tasty snack and homemade wine!!! WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Was totally blown away by the history of Pompeii, well worth doing a tour of the site, as you’d get a bit lost on your own. Our guide was good, told us lots of facts, however would have like more history and how the eruption happened, instead of so much about their personal habits, funny as they were, but the guide tended to dwell on them.
