Memorable memories, and a great way to share them as a family. Our son plans to do his next presentation at school. The preservation of the site is top-notch, and the audioguides, also tested by my 7-year-old daughter who knew how to use them perfectly, made her visit very interesting. Beautiful view from the towers. It's a pity there aren't more fast-food outlets for water and sandwiches, as the tour is long. There wasn't just one outlet and we didn't want to wait more than 1 hour. So we skipped lunch. It's a pity it's not possible to reserve parking in advance (like for Vesuvius), which would avoid the €30 scams.

Arrangements work very smoothly. Pompei awesome. Make sure you take water with you as it's a bit site and when we were there only one cafe was open.

Being able to wander around the ruins and get close to the remains of frescoes and mosaics. The fact that you can wander freely in the ruins means you're more immersed, which makes for a fascinating experience.

There are only a few signs within Pompei, which makes it difficult to find your way around. In addition, some houses and corridors were closed. We had to walk back a lot and take detours. The area to Villa Misteri costs extra, although we already paid over €20 per person. The audio guide is a cell phone with a map and location (if it works), but without headphones. This could have been written somewhere beforehand. So we had to listen to the long information as if we were talking on the phone, which can be exhausting with so many people. The amphitheater and the exhibitions in the palace and below the store were nice.

Le site était incroyable ! Ils ont une très bonne organisation et les audioguide sont vraiment les meilleurs que nous avons pu tester. Le plan sur le téléphone avec notre position qui évolue en même temps que nous sur le site nous simplifie vraiment le déplacement sur le site. Nous avons gagné beaucoup de temps en prenant les billets sur ce site avant. Une très bonne expérience !

Your experience

Deeply ingrained in myth and history, Pompeii dates back to nearly 2,000 years ago. An ancient site, the town was unearthed in 1748 AD after the infamous eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Over here you can revel in the ancient glory of the Campania region forever immortalized by the volcanic debris, standing as a true testament of nature’s infinite existence.

Upon arrival in Pompeii make your way into the attraction where your adventure truly begins. With ancient ruins and age-old artifacts all around, and a skyline dominated by Mount Vesuvius, the visuals through this discovery are breathtaking. Ideally, you want to spend around 4 hours here, there’s plenty for you to see. Walk around the Forum, visit the Basilica or relax under the shade of a tree near the amphitheater, it’s your call. There are numerous frescos and statues spread over the town along with 25 street fountains, 4 public baths and many business buildings which paints an almost real picture of the town in its hay day. As you stroll through the cobbled streets you’ll find yourself looking at everything with a sense of wonder and amazement. After all, you’re in a place that is frozen in the fabric of time.

Your understanding of the ancient world is sure to change after you see how much we have in common with people who lived in the first century. From everyday objects to wine barrels, there’s a lot for you to see and discover on this tour.

If you are one of those people who would rather live an experience than hear about it, check out MAP tickets. With the help of 3D reconstruction and virtual reality, you'll walk the streets of Pompeii in its glory days. See how mundane lives in ancient Rome looked like right before Mount Vesuvius turned the blossoming empire into ashes and lava!
