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.

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.

This tour was piecemealed together. Van we rode in was old and needed new shocks. Driver had music blasting. We waited for second pickup for twenty minutes. Met up with separate tour guide at Pompei who was just okay.

Pompeii was fascinating and Teresa was so informative and enthusiastic. We really enjoyed the tour. The guy escorting us in the van was not enthusiastic and even a little dismissive once we reached the site. We would definitely recommend the tour to friends, especially those who don’t want to spend the entire day on an excursion.

I travelled with my 10 year old grandson and this 2 hour tour gave us a perfect idea of the awinspiring roman civilisation, just long enough to keep him interested in the disaster that happened in Pompeii, the time capsule it left behind for generations to uncover. Our tour guide Antonio was very knowledgeable, very patient answering our questions.

The city of Pompeii is very crowded but our guide had headphones for us to wear to hear her clearly. It was a lot of walking in the big site and the stones were uneven at times so I was happy to be wearing good shoes! But it was a fascinating place to visit!
