Pompeii is the stuff of legends and has inspired countless documentaries, movies, and books. The UNESCO World Heritage site is truly a fascinating chapter in the book of Ancient Roman history and now you can experience it for yourself on this self-guided tour through its fascinating finds.

Before heading in, grab your dedicated audio headsets, which are now available in numerous languages to better suit your needs. Available in Italian, English, French, Spanish, and German, you can now learn about Pompeii and its heartbreaking history in the language you’re most comfortable with. Get guaranteed access to the archeological site to walk through the ruins as your audio guide gives you anecdotes from a different time.

Allow yourself to be transported back to a time when Pompeii was a flourishing city in the Roman Empire, until the fateful day when the still active Mt Vesuvius erupted and left the city smothered in ash and poisonous fumes, but well preserved. Visit the generally foregone Pompeii amphitheater after you see the plaster casts of those killed in the eruption, capturing every detail of their final moments.

Pompeii’s ruins were only rediscovered a few centuries ago, but they were found to be remarkably well preserved. This can be observed as you navigate through the bakeries and shops in the market and pass by the ancient homes of the Romans who once lived here.
