Overview

Travel back in time and discover the hidden mysteries of Pompeii with an expert historian leading the way.

Once a prosperous and cultured Roman city, Pompeii was buried under ashes after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. After centuries of excavations, the Archaeological Park has been brought back to life along with beautifully preserved buildings, objects and works of art. Among the most visited archaeological sites in Italy, Pompeii offers unique insight into daily life in ancient Rome during the 1st century and features some of the best examples of sumptuous Roman villas.

By participating in our private walking tour, you will have unique access to the rich past of Pompeii: you will discover the private homes of the Pompeians such as the renowned Casa dei Vettii or the most characteristic public places of the Roman city, including two theatres, the Lupanare, the baths and a thermopoly. We will visit the Roman amphitheater and admire the beautifully preserved frescoes, marble decorations and fantastic mosaics.
