There are few things more dramatic than walking through the petrified remains of what was once a noble Roman city.

Nothing can prepare you for the extraordinary experience of visiting the ancient city of Pompeii, and seeing it frozen to eternity by the volcanic eruption of 79 A.D.

Discover the amazing details of this once prosperous place, and visit the petrified relics of Pompeii's ancient shops, villas, taverns, gyms and brothels. Find out how the people of Pompeii once lived, worked and played, see everyday objects perfectly preserved for centuries by the smothering ash, and view haunting plaster casts of its fleeing inhabitants.

This great value tour offers you maximum flexibility. Book your seat in a comfortable, air-conditioned 8-seater minivan, and decide on the day of the journey whether you'd like to join the guided tour at an extra cost, or explore the petrified city on your own.
