Overview
Step into history with this 2-hour guided tour of Pompeii, starting from the Amphitheater Gate (Porta Anfiteatro). From the moment you pass through this ancient gateway, you’ll be transported into the bustling life of a Roman city frozen in time. Led by a professional archaeologist, the tour takes you first to the Amphitheater, one of the oldest and most well-preserved Roman arenas, before continuing to the elegant Praedia of Julia Felix, a symbol of Pompeii’s wealth and sophistication. As you walk through the ruins, you’ll explore the enchanting House of Octavius Quartio, known for its lush gardens, and stop by the Thermopolium of Vetutius Placidus, a remarkably intact Roman snack bar. Conclude your journey at the Forum, where political, religious, and commercial life once thrived.
