The Pompeii Ruins: immersing yourself in the past with the conveniences of the present

Pompeii, a journey through time

Pompeii. As soon as we hear this name, our mind immediately takes us on a journey through time. In an instant, in fact, we find ourselves walking the basalt streets remaining open-mouthed in front of magnificent Domus, looking for the Baths to relax and take care of our bodies or buying some loaves of bread at the Bakery on Via degli Augustali. All this, perhaps, while waiting to go see a Greek tragedy at the Teatro Grande.

But why limit ourselves to fantasy travel when we can visit the splendid archaeological excavations of Pompeii and see for ourselves these incredibly preserved places after the tragic eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD?

Pompeii, one of the most visited cultural sites in the world

A destination coveted by tourists from all over the planet and envied by every one of them, because there is no doubt about the fact that it is extremely rare to find a place so steeped in history. With nearly 4,000,000 admissions a year, Pompeii, in fact, is one of the most visited cultural sites in Italy and admired in the world.

These numbers, though impressive, should not intimidate those who are afraid of spending the day in line, in the sun, and getting to see little and poorly of the endless archaeological site.

With the right accommodations, we can spend as much time as we want browsing the frescoes of the Villa of the Mysteries and the rooms of the Lupanare.

Pompeii, how best to visit it

Whatever time you decide to go, the best way to reduce waiting time is definitely to buy the skip-the-line ticket.

Another great ally is definitely the.audioguide. More than 6 hours of explanation to satisfy the desire to know and make this experience at the Excavations even more unforgettable.

Likewise, one can choose to rely on a licensed guide who, through an engaging walking tour, gives anyone the opportunity to fully understand the value of Pompeii and discover very interesting anecdotes about the daily life of the ancient Romans.

Pompeii, how to get there

In those days people would have used a four-wheeled wagon to reach their destination; today there are many solutions to reach Pompeii comfortably. These include the train (from Naples, Salerno, etc.) or the Noleggio Con Conducente (NCC) Service, a round-trip transfer from the station or from one's hotel.

Still on the subject of convenience, it is also good to consider a private tour of Pompeii. An exclusive and customizable service to visit the excavations at your leisure and in a unique way.
