The experience

The minivan picks you up at your hotel or a location you choose, then drives you to Pompeii's entrance with a professional driver who stays with you throughout the day. Once at the archaeological site, your guide leads a 2-hour walk through the ruins: starting at the Forum with its most important public buildings, then moving through the thermal baths, the Lupanare, theatres, shops, and the Domus homes where frescoes and mosaics survived under layers of volcanic rock from the 79 BC eruption. You'll see how the city's residents lived before the disaster, and the spaces where panic took hold when the eruption struck.

After the guided portion, you have an hour to rest at a bar or restaurant, or to walk through the various stalls selling local goods. The driver then takes you back to your original drop-off point. The entire outing runs about nine hours from pickup to return, and the minivan is equipped with air conditioning and bottled water for the journey.
