What to expect
Your guide meets you at Pompeii's entrance with tickets in hand, saving hours of waiting. Expect a steady walk through the ancient city—cobbled streets, intact mosaics, bakeries and amphitheatres—with commentary on how residents lived before 79 AD. The site is sprawling but your guide paces things sensibly. Afterwards, you'll drive back to Naples for a proper sit-down pizza meal at a seaside restaurant, then return to your hotel. Total time is roughly four hours, though traffic can stretch transfers.
Good to know
Wear sturdy trainers; Pompeii's streets are uneven and can be slippery. The site involves considerable walking on slopes. Bring water and sun protection. Not suitable for those with serious back or heart conditions, or pregnant travellers. Cruise passengers must provide ship details at booking and accept no refunds if your ship runs late.
