    This tour was excellent! It was a 2 hour tour with an archeologist guide. The guide was excellent and showed all the Pompeii ruins, explaining all the history. It was so interesting and I learnt so many new things on this place! Pompeii site is large, remember to have water and a sun hat with you ;) I would definitely recommend this tour!!!

    We bought 2 tours with an archaeologist, one in Herculaneum and the other in Pompeii... in this case the one in Pompeii was the second... a very poor experience, very bad, it contrasted negatively with that of Herculaneum. But the worst thing is that the guide was not an archaeologist, and she also did not know how to answer several of the questions that the group asked her, and when she did answer, it was in monosyllables. A very poor, very sad experience. We don't recommend it at all, we thought about asking for the money back, but it was a lot of trouble. Regrettable…

    Nuestro guía fue genial. Nos explicó con detalle cada parada del recorrido además de muchas curiosidades de otros puntos de la ciudad que no estaban dentro de nuestro circuito. Nos dio multitud de recomendaciones para explorar Pompea por nuestra cuenta al finalizar la visita lo que nos ayudó a descubrir otras zonas y aprovechar al máximo la jornada.

    Our guide was so knowledgeable! She walked us through Pompeii telling us all about the buildings and what they were and about the people who lived thaids. Definitely wear tennis shoes for this Tour! The only criticism I have is that they give you only 1 earbud and for me, being hearing impaired, it was difficult for me to hear the guide at times and the earbud did not fit well with my hearing aid. Would for sure recommend this tour!

    Pompeii is massive, way bigger than I thought! Honestly having a guide made such a difference! Our group was small, which was great because it didn’t feel crowded or overwhelming. It was super hot the day we went, so skipping the line was a lifesaver. The guide had a nice way of explaining things, clear, interesting, and not boring at all, even if you’re not super into Roman history.I’d totally recommend this if it’s your first time visiting… you get way more out of it than just walking around on your own!

    Pompeii

    Pompeii

    The excavations of Pompeii and the remarkable state of preservation of the buildings give the imagine of a Roman city as a whole. That is the result of the peculiar burial (under a cover of ashes and lapilli 6 metres high) caused by the earthquake in 79 AD. Initially, excavations have revealed the area of Pompeii, a part of Ercolano Door, the Temple of Iside and a part of the theatres area. Walking the ancient streets, visitors can admire houses, workshops, the Foro, publics buildings, sacred sites, the baths, the theatres area and the amphitheatre. Out of the Doors of the city, there are four necropolises with the monumental tombs. Outside of the excavations area, there are the suburban residences, including the Villa dei Misteri. The evidences from Pompeii (furnishings, mosaics, paintings, statues) are preserved in the Antiquarium of Boscoreale and in the Archeological Museum of Naples. For its antiquity and its archeological importance, Pompeii is a Unesco World Heritage Site.
