Pompeii is one of the most significant archaeological sites in the world. Visiting can be an exciting experience. Accompanied by an archaeological guide, you'll stroll through cobbled streets built over two thousand years ago to see the shops, temples, theaters, and once-luxurious villas of the patricians and rich merchants. In this once-prosperous city they made their fortune, leaving incredible testimonies of civilization, architecture, and art.

During the low season from November to to March, the live guide inside Pompeii will be replaced by an official interactive audioguide for groups of less than six.
The itinerary may vary from day to day depending on the opening of certain offices, depending on attendance. One building per category is guaranteed to be visited-1 Temple, 1 Market, 1 Shop, 1 Villa, 1 Thermal Plant, 1 Theater, and the Forum. The choice of buildings visited is determined from time to time by the guide based on attendance, waiting times in case of long lines, or opening hours of the buildings. - The tour includes a visit to a Cameo factory, the Cameo is a typical Roman-era jewel found during excavations at Herculaneum and Pompeii in 1748. In the factory you will be able to see a craftsman at work, the cameo is a piece of jewelry made from congeals and precious stones and is hand engraved by the craftsman. A visit to the factory will allow you to use the toilets free of charge before entering the excavations, so the stop at the Cameo Factory in addition to being informative is essential in terms of managing your visit to the Pompeii excavations.
The tour is confirmed in the chosen language if the group reaches 6 participants; if the group does not reach 6 participants, the guide will be replaced by an audioguide in the chosen language or your choice in an English-language guide.

Good experience, I recommend it. The work team is excellent. Federica and Genaro worked hard to be on time for our boarding to the cruise.

They changed the pickup spot. The former was 5 minutes from our hotel, which is why I chose it. The one they determined was 40 walking minutes from our hotel. Anna, our guide at Pompeii, was very nice but her microphone was faulty so we heard about 1/3 of the tour. Bring a backup microphone next time.

Pompeii is incredible. Imagining people living and working in these ruins is just amazing. Our tour guide, Anna, wasn’t great. She seemed like she’d rather be anywhere else.
