Full description
Travel back in time to the days of the Roman Empire on a guided tour of the ruins of Pompeii. Buried by the molten lava and ash of Vesuvius after it erupted in 79 AD, Pompeii was frozen in time until its rediscovery in the late 16th century.
Join an archaeologist guide and walk along the streets of Pompeii, learning more about the history and mysteries of the Romans that lived there almost 2,000 years ago. Visit preserved buildings, such as temples, villas, shops, and brothels.
Marvel at frescoes left intact, and the ruins of thermal baths rich in marble and mosaics. Go to the Forum to learn about the heart of political life in the city. See the remains of the Macellum Market and Red Light District, and gaze in wonder at the human casts of Pompeii inhabitants caught in the exact pose in which they died when Vesuvius erupted.
