Overview

Do you want to explore the ruins of Pompeii and the world-famous archaeological collections of Naples? Experience both with a Vesuvian archaeologist and licensed guide.

Skip the lines with priority access and enter Pompeii from its main gate, Porta Marina Superiore. During a 2-hour guided tour, walk through streets, houses and public buildings while uncovering the daily life of an ancient Roman city frozen in time.

After a lunch break, we continue to the National Archaeological Museum of Naples for an insider’s visit to one of the most important museums in the world. Here you’ll admire frescoes, mosaics, statues, medical instruments and everyday objects recovered from Pompeii, Herculaneum and other Vesuvian sites. Discover the famous Vesuvian Collection and the extraordinary Farnese Collection through stories, insights and curiosities that bring the ancient world vividly to life.
