Headout, home to the world’s best real-life experiences, is bringing back one of Italy’s most unique cultural offerings: Pompeii by Night. For the second year running, travelers will have the rare chance to explore the ancient ruins under the stars, available in both English and Italian.

This limited-edition evening tour invites guests to walk the hauntingly beautiful streets of Pompeii after dark, free from the daytime crowds and heat. Expert guides will lead small groups through the archaeological site, revealing stories of life before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79, while the moonlight casts new perspective on one of the world’s most famous ruins.

The experience is available on select dates:

  1. September 2025: 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, 20, 26, 27

  2. October 2025: 3, 4

“Few places in the world are as evocative as Pompeii, and seeing it illuminated by night is nothing short of magical,” said Vlad Grankin, GM Europe, at Headout. “We’re thrilled to bring this rare experience back for a second year, giving travelers and locals alike a new way to connect with history.”

The night variant joins Headout’s growing portfolio of curated cultural experiences in Italy, designed to make iconic landmarks accessible in new and magical ways. With availability limited to just a handful of evenings, Pompeii by Night promises to be one of this fall’s most sought-after experiences.
