Description
Embark on an unforgettable day trip in Pompeii, where history comes to life amid the ruins of this ancient city. Travel comfortably by bus or train through the picturesque Italian countryside if you choose the option leaving from Rome, arriving at the site where Mount Vesuvius' catastrophic eruption in 79 AD froze daily life in time. Otherwise, make your way directly to Pompeii yourself.
Choose to have a knowledgeable guide lead you through Pompeii's remarkably preserved streets, villas, and public spaces, providing fascinating insights into the lives of its inhabitants and the events leading up to the city's tragic end. Alternatively, choose the audio guide option to discover the site at your own pace.
Marvel at the forum, the heart of political and social life. Explore the grand amphitheatre where gladiators once fought.
Discover the intricate frescoes and mosaics in the homes of Pompeii's wealthiest citizens and visit the ancient baths, bakeries, and shops that paint a vivid picture of daily Roman life. The tour also includes stops at key landmarks such as the House of the Vettii, the Villa of the Mysteries, and the poignant plaster casts of the victims.
Throughout the day, your guide will share stories and historical context, enriching your understanding of this UNESCO World Heritage site. The tour ensures a comprehensive experience, combining structured exploration with opportunities for personal discovery. After a day immersed in ancient history, you'll return to Rome with a deeper appreciation for the enduring legacy of Pompeii.
