A fan of volcanoes, I came to Naples mainly for Vesuvius and the Phlegrean Fields! The pick-up from the agency and the shuttle service were excellent! I would have liked to have stayed longer and had a guide, too bad!

It was a fascinating experience. I loved seeing the ruins, finding out how the people lived back then, and just learning about the history. It was very surreal seeing the casts, but interesting too. I also loved that there were cats dotted around the place, and the wildflowers growing all through the ruins.

I bought the tickets to avoid waiting in line and I had to wait in line anyway, both for the tickets and for the audio guides.

the information on how to exchange your ticket and obtain the audioguides is not at all clear, and we had to go to 3 different places to finally get into the site. Too bad...

We thought that the price of the ticket included also the Diomede villa and the Necropolis...surprise was when we were told that the price paid was not for that but for the commission of your web site.

Your experience

Deeply ingrained in myth and history, Pompeii dates back to nearly 2,000 years ago. An ancient site, the town was unearthed in 1748 AD after the infamous eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Over here you can revel in the ancient glory of the Campania region forever immortalized by the volcanic debris, standing as a true testament of nature’s infinite existence.

Upon arrival in Pompeii make your way into the attraction where your adventure truly begins. With ancient ruins and age-old artifacts all around, and a skyline dominated by Mount Vesuvius, the visuals through this discovery are breathtaking. Ideally, you want to spend around 4 hours here, there’s plenty for you to see. Walk around the Forum, visit the Basilica or relax under the shade of a tree near the amphitheater, it’s your call. There are numerous frescos and statues spread over the town along with 25 street fountains, 4 public baths and many business buildings which paints an almost real picture of the town in its hay day. As you stroll through the cobbled streets you’ll find yourself looking at everything with a sense of wonder and amazement. After all, you’re in a place that is frozen in the fabric of time.

Your understanding of the ancient world is sure to change after you see how much we have in common with people who lived in the first century. From everyday objects to wine barrels, there’s a lot for you to see and discover on this tour.

If you are one of those people who would rather live an experience than hear about it, check out MAP tickets. With the help of 3D reconstruction and virtual reality, you'll walk the streets of Pompeii in its glory days. See how mundane lives in ancient Rome looked like right before Mount Vesuvius turned the blossoming empire into ashes and lava!
