About this activity
Skip the queues and explore Pompeii's haunting Roman streets with an expert archaeological guide on this half-day tour from Naples. Uncover the stories behind preserved homes, temples, and public spaces frozen by the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
Enjoy a half-day shared walking tour of the ruins of Pompeii, skipping the line at the ticket office.
Meet your driver in Naples and drive to Pompeii where you'll meet your archaeological guide.
Once inside, your guide will provide you with the most interesting facts about Pompeii. They will show you the most important places in the ruins such as the thermal baths, the frescoes of the Lupanare brothel, the Macellum with its “tabernae”, famous workshops, the Basilica, and the House of Faun.
You will have the chance to take several photos during brief stops. In case of ongoing maintenance work of some villas or buildings for restoration, the guide will replace the visit with an alternative building. The tour inside the ruins lasts around 1.5 hours, and your exact route will depend on the crowds and weather conditions. At the end of your time in Pompeii, travel back to Naples where your tour will come to an end.
