Dedicate a day to discovering one of the most famous and fascinating archaeological sites in the world - Pompeii.

Depart from Rome early to make the most of your day in Pompeii! Upon arrival, your professional, history-loving guide will be waiting for you. Then, take a step back in time as you begin your exploration of the ancient buried city of Pompeii, on the slopes of Vesuvius. Your guide will lead you on a captivating tour through various ancient ruins - including some which are not usually included in traditional walking tours - Villa dei Misteri with its frescoes, the Roman Amphitheater, the Casa del Fauno, and the Fuggiaschi Gardens. In a place where buildings, items, and people have remained intact, covered by ash from 79 AD, your guide will dive into the history, bringing this surreal place to life. After your guided tour, you will have free time to enjoy lunch in one of the many typical restaurants of the area. There is no better place to sample some authentic Neapolitan pizza! Then, you will return to Rome in the mid-afternoon, just in time to find a spot to watch the sunset over Rome’s sparkling skyline.
