TOUR  N. 20 - POMPEII

Our English speaking driver will be waiting for you near the gangway of your ship at the time at 8 AM with the vehicle requested to take you for a visit to the ruins of Pompeii.

Pompeii was a thriving, noisy market town of about 20.000 inhabitants, filled with shops and bars and small family factories. Traders constantly came and went, while wine and a potent fish sauce were Pompeii's most popular exports.

On the day Vesuvius erupted, Pompeii was the scene of a different but no less deadly series of catastrophes. Many stones showered down both on Pompeii and Herculaneum, while dense layers of ash settled at the rate of about 10 inches per hour. Roofs began to collapse and the town was in almost total darkness. The people who died waited too long inside their homes, trapped by fallen timbers and were unable to breath due to the volcano gas.

Plan on spending at least two hours here.  The most important sites are accessible to the public and others can be entered with a guide. Pompeii is the most visited excavation site in Italy.
Overwhelmed by the eruption of the Vesuvius in the year 79 A.C. the city of Pompeii has for centuries captivated archaeologists from all over the world.

This will give you the best opportunity to discover the greatest witness of the way of life at the times of the Roman Empire.
