Explore Pompeii: 2-Hour Guided Walking Tour with Included Ticket
Overview
On a fateful summer's day in 79AD, Mt Vesuvius erupted, spewing volcanic ash over the village of Pompeii. Unaware of the imminent danger, most people continued on with their daily lives and as a result the entire town and around 20000 of its inhabitants were buried under tons of ash and pumice.
Almost 2000 years later, you have the opportunity to explore the preserved ruins of this famous disaster. You have the opportunity to discover the everyday life of the Imperial Age and imagine the panic of the people before the city was so disastrously buried. In two hours walking tour, your guide will show you fascinating places such as The Forum, Thermal Baths, Lupanare and Vetti's House with it's beautiful frescos.
