Is this tour right for you?

Choose this if you want an archaeologist and park entry in the same booking. You get 2 hours inside Pompeii in English. The shared group can reach 25 people.

The walk covers public buildings and private homes through the daily lives of their occupants. Lunch costs extra. Check the included ticket's coverage before planning a visit to the Villa of the Mysteries.

Meet by Piazza Esedra. Get precise directions to the assistant before you travel, including the agency logo to look for. The route accepts wheelchairs and strollers, but the cardiovascular health restriction still applies.

What I'd do: choose this for entry and an archaeologist together if you're comfortable sharing with up to 25 people.

Chiara Vitale Writes pompeii.day

I grew up in Castellammare di Stabia, under the volcano, and spent six seasons on hotel front desks in Sorrento. Which ticket, which train, which gate, how many hours: I've answered these more times than I can count.

Now I live in Pompei, ten minutes on foot from the Amphitheatre gate, and I go into the site most weeks on a MyPompeii card. For this page I compared the options and booking terms with the park's rules. Report a correction.
