Is this tour right for you?

Choose this when everyone wants a tour in Italian, French, or Spanish. You have an archaeologist for your own party. The available rate covers up to 8 travelers.

The visit lasts 1 hour 50 minutes to 2 hours and follows your interests. A map is included, while park entry costs extra. Agree the buildings you most want to see before booking.

Meet at the Pompeii entrance on the Hotel Vittoria side. Arrange your start time before traveling. This won't suit a group that needs an English tour.

What I'd do: choose this for a group that wants French and agree the route beforehand.

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.
