• Pompeii Archaeological Park - We will visit the most important public buildings (theatres, temples, thermal baths and more) and bring your attention on some of the most traditional Roman shops like the thermopolia - ancestor of the modern fast food restaurants - and the pistrinum - the Roman equivalent of a bakery. The city of Pompeii is also quite known for the magnificence of its residences, the names of which are renowned in the entire world: the House of Menander, the House of the Faun, the House of the Vettii, the House of Caecilius Iucundus and many more. We will be in some of those fantastic dwellings and also walk down “Via dell’Abbondanza” (the main street), the Forum (the main town square) and the famous “red-light district” and its suggestive wall paintings. Lastly, a special focus will be put onto the poor victims of the eruption, appearing as petrified bodies.

Without a doubt, Pompeii stands as the most significant archaeological site globally. Perfectly maintained as it was in the year 79 A.D., this city became frozen in time due to a massive eruption from the neighboring Mt. Vesuvius volcano, which smothered it under layers of ash and volcanic stones.

Pompeii’s distinctiveness is unmatched amongst other archaeological sites globally. While there are aged relics in Rome, Greece, Egypt, Central America, and other extraordinary locations worldwide, none can emulate Pompeii’s living history. Here, you can tread along the authentic ancient pathways and experience their vibrancy as if transported back in time. Pompeii provides an opportunity to wander through the same homes, temples, workplaces, and recreational sites ancient inhabitants once thrived in. You can still observe the remnants of their chariots imprinted on the road surface, the conduits their potable water flowed through, apart from the chillingly ‘fossilized’ bodies of those who fell victim to the eruption.
