About this tour
Two hours among the ruins of Pompeii, the town buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, with an archaeologist explaining what you are looking at. A Pompeii guided tour with an archaeologist and a local guide keeps the group to a maximum of 20 and uses skip-the-line access to get you inside quickly.
The walk takes in the big public spaces and the small details:
- the Porta Marina, the Basilica and the Forum
- the ancient baths and the Lupanar
- the House of the Faun and the Termopolium
- the main streets, the Theatres and the plaster casts of the victims
At the end the guides share ideas for where to continue, either deeper in the ruins or in the modern town. It suits anyone who wants a full overview of this site before wandering off alone.
The entrance ticket and the archaeologist guide are included, along with headsets for groups of ten or more. Food, drinks, transport and hotel transfers are not. The tour runs whatever the weather, so bring a raincoat if rain is forecast. The route is not suitable for wheelchair users or people with reduced mobility.
