Some places you visit; others you walk through holding your breath. Pompeii is one of them.
You walk the same paved streets where, nearly two thousand years ago, people traded, prayed and went to the theatre, until the day in 79 AD when Vesuvius stopped time.
With your private guide, discover the Forum, the temples, the baths and the frescoed houses, and pause before the casts of the victims, silent witnesses of that day. Every stone tells a story, and your guide brings it to life for you, choosing the best route through the wonders of the site.
The most intense and personal way to experience Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
