About This Tour
Pompeii is one of the most magnificent and unique city in the world because it is an open-air museum in which you can touch and breathe the history of the ancient Romans. It was destroyed by the Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in 79 AD. Pompeii was covered and after buried by tons of ash and pumice stones. Our best local and top rated guide will take you back to the Roman Empire when Pompeii and the Volcano Vesuvius area were the most beautiful resort in Italy. Let your guide lead you into this amazing journey through the highlights of the Pompeii ruins: see the gladiators gymnasium and the temple of Isis; enter the theatres and check the acoustics quality 2000 years later; be enchanted by the decorations of the Baths and the House of Menander. Furthermore, this private tour will be a completely relaxing experience for you: you will skip the line at the entrance and our guide will be at your disposal to give you all the information you need.
