The Pompeii Private Walking Tour takes you in the worldwide known archeological site located on the outer area of the provice of Naples. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy the culture and the history of this amazing place thanks to our knowledgeable tour guide that will take you for a stroll in the streets of this ancient city just like the Romans did more than 2000 years ago.
During this two hours tour you will understand the way of life of Pompeii but most importantly you will see the effects that the eruption of 79 A.D. of mount Vesuvius had on the city. The city remained “dormant” for centuries, preserved under the crystallized ash remained by the Vesuvius until its rediscovery in 1599 and subsequent excavations that started in 1748 and ever since the site has become one of the most important attractions of the area of Naples.
The tour starts in Porta Marina Superiore and from there here you will have easy access to the numerous points of interest of the city, such as the suburban baths, the temple of Apollo, the forum, the temple of Jupiter the granary with the casts of the victims of the eruptions, the house of the tragic poet, the thermopolium, the house of the Faun, the bakery of Popidio Prisco, house of the wounded bear, the Stabian baths, the Lupanare, the ancient brothel, the building of Eumachia, the temple of Vespasiano, the Macellum, the basilic, the temple of Venus and much more!
Unfortunately, in 79 AD, Pompeii’s vibrant life came to a catastrophic end when Mount Vesuvius erupted, burying the city under layers of volcanic ash and debris.
The eruption preserved Pompeii’s ruins remarkably well, allowing archaeologists to uncover and study the city’s remains, offering valuable insights into daily life during the Roman era.
The city’s streets were laid out in a grid pattern, featuring well-paved roads and sidewalks.
Some streets had stepping stones to allow pedestrians to cross without stepping into the often-flowing sewage water.
The city’s urban planning showcased a mix of residential, commercial, and public spaces.
