Pompeii: 2-Hour Shared Guided Tour with Skip-the-Line Ticket

Enjoy a wonderful guided tour in Pompeii! With a Professional and licensed tour guide learn about the history of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the 79 A.D. Admire how everything here has remained intact as it did during Roman times. The findings following the excavations, begun at the behest of Charles III of Bourbon, are one of the best testimonies of Roman life, as well as the best preserved city of that time. Precisely the considerable amount of finds was useful to make people understand the uses, customs, eating habits and the art of life of over two millennia ago. The site of Pompeii, in 2016, exceeded three million visitors, making it the third most visited state museum site in Italy after the Pantheon and the archaeological circuit of the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill. In 1997, to preserve their integrity, the ruins, managed by the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, together with those of Herculaneum and Oplonti, became part of the UNESCO World Heritage List.
