Here’s an overview of your tour
Let's discover the ancient Roman life hidden between the ruins of Pompeii! Join me for a unique private tour created exclusively for you!
I'm an enthusiastic archaeologist with a vast knowledge of the Greco-Roman history and all its wonders, and I can't wait to share my love for past civilizations with you!
Let's take a trip back in time and let me tell you all about the little details of the Romans daily life and the amazing architectonic buildings perfectly preserved. Take a look around and see why the Roman empire held one of the most important civilizations the world has ever seen. Walk in the footsteps of a Pompeii citizen, understand how they enjoyed life, how they worked and what they valued.
In this 3-hour walking tour, you'll see the most important areas of the ancient city, like the Porta Marina (Sea Gate), the main square, the Roman Forum and the Temple of Apollo. Think it can't get better? It actually can! I'll also bring you to hidden spots out of the tourist routes and tell you all about them. Follow me!
Let's talk about the Roman civilization, all its interesting traditions and the tragic end of Pompeii caused by the eruption of Vesuvius. And please, ask away! I can answer all your burning questions, so don't be shy.
Don't forget that this tour can be 100% personalized to your needs and wishes. Want to add a specific spot on our walk through the old city? No problem!
