Why take this tour?
Journey back in time on a memorable day trip from Rome and witness the unparalleled archaeological ruins of Pompeii, a city immortalised by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. A departure from the typical highlights tour, this is an in-depth experience, blending the convenience of high-speed rail with a meticulously crafted, four-hour odyssey through one of the most incredible archaeological treasures in the world.
Your adventure begins with a panoramic high-speed train ride from Rome to Naples, a prelude to the wonders that await. Upon arrival, a comfortable private coach whisk you off to the UNESCO World Heritage site of Pompeii, where the past will unfold before your eyes.
Unlike conventional excursions, this exclusive experience grants you an extended, four-hour immersion into the heart of Pompeii. Visit the highlights and then delve beyond the beaten paths, uncovering the city's hidden courtyards and lesser-known sanctuaries such as: House of Vettii, House of Mysteries, Thermal Baths, the Plaster Casts and much more!
Our expert archeologist will be your guide, illuminating the remarkably preserved streets, villas, and public spaces, while breathing life into the poignant narratives of a civilization frozen in time by the tragic eruption of 79 AD.
Halfway through your visit, you will have a chance to take a one-hour break in a resting area inside the archeological park where you can enjoy food and drinks, cool off, and recharge before continuing the second half of the tour.
After the break, you’ll continue exploring with our guide by your side, focusing on the intimate details of daily life in this ancient Roman city and hearing the stories etched into its very stones.
As the sun sets, you'll return to Rome via high-speed rail, carrying with you the indelible memories of a day spent immersed in the extraordinary legacy of Pompeii. This is more than a trip but a pilgrimage into the heart of history.
