Uncover the secrets of the ancient city of Pompeii
Overview
Access the archaeological site directly and discover the treasures of the ancient city, thanks to the passionate narration of an expert guide:
1. The Theater Area
The first great emotion is the monumental theater area.
2. The House of Menander
One of the largest and most luxurious noble residences.
3. Via dell'Abbondanza and the Thermopolia
Moving back toward the center, we walk along the main street,
stopping at the Thermopolia to see the marble counters where Pompeians consumed quick hot meals.
4. The Lupanar
Here you can see the original erotic frescoes and understand how nightlife operated in the ancient city.
5. The Civil Forum: The Heart of the City
Temple of Jupiter and Temple of Apollo: Religion and Power.
6. The Casts and the Macellum
This is the most human and touching moment of the tour, where the ash "photographed" the last moments of the inhabitants' lives.
7. The Basilica and the Exit
We conclude with the majesty of the Basilica, the ancient courthouse and business center.
