Full description

Explore the ruins of Pompeii with skip-the-line entrance tickets and learn about life there before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. See what remains of the markets, Forum, thermal baths, and more.

Choose from a list of designated pickup points of departure and travel by a comfortable vehicle to Pompeii on this half-day tour. Explore the ancient ruins of this famous Roman town.

Once at the archaeological site, skip the lines and follow your tour guide to the most interesting places, such as the Forum, the thermal baths, the luxurious House of the Vettii and the Lupanar, or a famous brothel.

Learn about the settlement of the ancient Greeks in the area in the 8th century B.C. and how Pompeii became a flourishing resort for Rome’s most distinguished citizens, with elegant houses and elaborate villas lining the paved streets. See the ruins of the factories and artisan shops, taverns, cafés, and bathhouses where tourists and townspeople once bustled in and out of, along with the 20,000-seat arena and open-air marketplaces. Enjoy some leisure time to explore the Archaeological Park of Pompeii on your own before your return trip to Sorrento or Naples.

I had asked that I have the front seat in the bus because I get car sick, and when we got on, there was someone sitting there so I had to ask them to move (even after I spoke with the tour guide on the bus about it - she didn’t ask the person). We had to wait approximately an hour after our tour of the Pompeii site was completed, for our bus. It was pouring rain that day, and everyone got soaked. Why did we have to wait so long? The tour itself was amazing, but extremely crowded! We had to wait at most of the stops along the tour, and (perhaps?) missed time at others. Then our bus pickup took an hour?? I would probably recommend going to Herculaneum for a smaller experience of the history of Vesuvius and the eruption instead. And it was quite expensive.

The tour guide was so very good sharing his passion and knowledge of Pompeii, we were very impressed. He just wanted the tour to go on so he could show us everything there was to see. The only hitch was the delay at the meeting point and a bit of confusion as to what was happening but after that it was a great tour.

It was a great tour with clear information and good transportation. Our guide was very good and loved Pompeii. My only complaint was that he talked too much while stopping over and over to educate us. This made our tour go long, we stood in the sun without moving and in the end he must have said that his bosses would cut off his head for being late again. After a while I felt he was busy trying to get tips by telling us we had received better or special guiding. He was amazingly educated - it just became all about him and how much we should appreciate the “extras”. We were both physically and emotionally exhausted when done.
