Description:
This private tour of Pompeii will begin near the entrance of the archaeological area where you will meet your private guide, officially licensed and with degree in archaeology or art history.
Please note that Pompeii is about one hour distance from Naples (and about three hours from Rome). This private tour does not include transportation, so you will reach Pompeii on your own. If you wish to include a private transportation service from Naples click here or from Rome click here.
Because of the complexity of the this vast archaeological site, a knowledgeable guide is really a must. Your guide will take you through the ruins of Pompeii for about three hours, visiting the most interesting sites and making the history come alive of this Roman city that was covered in the ashes by the vulcanic eruption of mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and that remained buried until the excavations started in the 18th century.
You will walk on the paved roads where two thousand years ago the inhabitants of this city used to walk, you will see the shops where they made their trade, go inside the small homes of the average people and the luxurious villas of the wealthy and you will admire frescoes that arrived to us still rich in colors.
