Pompeii 2-Hour Private Tour with an Archaeologist: Personalised Route at Your Pace

The group sets the pace and the focus on this private two-hour visit, with a professional archaeologist as guide. Because the route is personalised, time can go to whatever interests the group most, and there is room for questions and longer explanations.

The city was destroyed overnight by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and lay under layers of ash until modern excavations. The guide leads through its streets and buildings to the Forum, the best-known houses and the plaster casts of Pompeii's ancient inhabitants.

For anyone in the Naples area with a few hours to spare before leaving, it is a way to see Pompeii in depth without the crowds of a larger group. Guiding is available in German, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, English, Italian, French and Spanish.
