Overview

Discover ancient Pompeii with a 2.5-hour guided tour led by a professional archaeologist. This experience is ideal for cruise passengers as well as for those meeting directly in Pompeii.

Starting from Porta Marina Inferiore, you will explore the city’s most iconic sites. Visit the Forum, once the center of public life, and the Basilica, where justice was administered. Discover the Temple of Apollo, the lively market area, and a remarkably preserved thermopolium — an ancient Roman tavern.

Enter the public baths, admire the mosaics in the House of the Faun, and explore Roman intimacy at the Lupanar. The tour concludes with the plaster casts of the victims, frozen in time at the moment of the eruption.
What makes this tour special is the presence of our local guides and expert archaeologists. Deeply connected to the region’s history and culture, they speak multiple languages and bring Pompeii back to life through engaging storytelling, offering an authentic experience for every visitor.
