Pompeii Highlights Private Tour with Native Guide: Skip the Line, 2 Hours
A native guide takes one private group through the main sights of Pompeii, with the entrance queue skipped from the start. The pitch is the site as an open-air museum, where the streets, theatres and baths of the Romans can be walked rather than read about.
The guide begins with the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, which covered the city in ash and pumice, then moves to what survived. The route includes the gladiators' gymnasium and the Temple of Isis, the theatres (where the acoustics still work after 2,000 years) and the decorated rooms of the Baths and the House of Menander.
The group is private, so questions can be asked at any point and the guide adapts the commentary to what the group wants to know.
