Pompeii 2-Hour Walking Tour with an Archaeologist, Admission Included
The city that Vesuvius covered in ash in 79 AD is walked on foot here, with an archaeologist explaining how its people lived. The guide shows the most important public buildings and private homes, so the forum and the houses read as one town rather than a list of ruins.
The tour lasts two hours and the admission fee is part of the booking. Groups run to 20 people per guide, and tours are offered in six languages.
What's included
- Small group (maximum 20 people per guide)
- Headsets (for groups of 16 or more)
- Dedicated guidance and assistance
- Expert archaeologist as your guide
