Pompeii is the most important archaeological site in the world. An entire city completely preserved as it was in AD 79 when a tremendous eruption of the volcano Mt. Vesuvius buried it under a 25 feet deep layer of ash and lapilli. Pompeii is different from all the other archaeological sites you can visit. In Rome, in Greece, in Egypt, in Central America and in other amazing places all around the world you can find evidence of ancient civilizations, however, nowhere but Pompeii you can walk so ancient streets full of traces of life. You can enter the houses where people lived, the temples where they prayed, the places where they went for entertainment. You can see the tracks of their carts on the surface of streets, the piping of the public running water supply, the "petrified" bodies of the victims of the eruption. There is no dead city in the world pulsating so much life. After your tour in Pompeii, all the archaeological tours you'll do all around the world will not be the same.
The dimension of the site is impressive and we focus on the highlights to let you have an idea about the life in a Roman city in the 1st century AD. We go to see public buildings (theatres, temples, baths, etc. ), private houses and shops and the city centre. I'll explain what exactly happened in AD 79, how the city was rediscovered and above all how was the life of the citizens of Pompeii 2000 years ago. At the end of the tour if you want to spend some more time on your own in the archaeological area I'll give you suggestions and indications about what else interesting you can go to see.
