Paestum Private Tour of the Doric Temples and Archaeological Museum, Entry Included
Admission fees and a certified archaeological guide are both covered on this private tour of Paestum. The guide leads a two-hour walk through the ruins, then the group goes on to the National Archaeological Museum.
In the ruins the walk takes in the three Doric temples, the amphitheater, the forum and the markets. The museum holds some of the finest artworks of Magna Graecia, including the frescoes of the Tomb of the Diver.
Paestum lies in the northern part of the Cilento region on the Tyrrhenian coast, not far from the river Sele. Greek colonists founded it as Poseidonia, and it grew into one of the most popular cities of Magna Graecia. Comfortable shoes are recommended.
