About this tour

Your private vehicle picks you up from your hotel, port, airport or train station and drops you at your destination. An English, Italian or Spanish-speaking guide leads you through the preserved streets and structures buried by Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago.

What to expect
You'll be collected from your starting point and driven to Pompeii, where your guide meets you at the entrance. Expect to walk through ancient alleyways, past preserved buildings, forum ruins and domestic spaces frozen in time. Your guide contextualises what you're seeing—how people lived, worked and died when the volcano erupted. The walking involves uneven ground and some elevation changes. After two hours, you return to your vehicle for the journey to your final destination. Bring water and wear proper footwear.
