Highlights
  • Pompeii Archaeological Park - Take the chance to visit in only 2 hours the ruins of the Roman city of Pompeii, the vast archaeological area under the UNESCO patronage.
  • Forum - The Forum was the centre of Pompeii when it was first founded and even after the city’s enlargement, when it could hardly be called ‘central’, it remained the focus of political, economic and religious life.
  • Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane) - The Stabian Baths take their name from the fact that they lie at the intersection of the Via Stabiana and the Via dell’Abbondanza. They are the oldest baths in Pompeii and four different building phases can be identified.
  • Tempio di Giove Capitolino - The Temple of Jupiter, dedicated to the Capitoline triad of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva, dominates the north side of the Forum.
  • Macellum - The Macellum, or food market, stands in the north-east corner of the Forum. The complex, built in the imperial age as a covered market, had a large number of shops on its periphery on the Via degli Augustali and on the Forum as well as on the inside under a colonnade around its large internal court.

A few hours in Pompeii - Our driver Bruno and guide Diana with WorldTours got us safely to and from Pompeii. We were glad to have Anna as our historian, archeologist and tour guide. We can’t imagine navigating through the site without her. She was so knowledgeable. We know the site is large and you could spend all day there but her expertise is the only way we would recommend the visit. It was an amazing and thorough tour. Seeing the difference between a wealthy home and service quarters, the bath house and spa, and the fact that the site was struck in WWII was also interesting. She was able to point out what was from an original dig and what was reproduced. Thank you Anna for the great tour.

Pompeii, Capri, and Amalfi tours! - My friend and I went on three tours with this company during our time in Naples. One to Pompeii, then capri, and finally the Amalfi coast. For the first two tours to Pompeii and capri we had TiTi as our tour guide. She was amazing!!! So friendly and nice and always made sure everyone was present which was a relief to know we were in good hands. The Pompeii tour was incredible! After being dropped off TiTi set us up with our guide Mario who was so knowledgeable on Pompeii it even got me, not a big history buff, super intrigued!! Capri was also really great with TiTi, we got there smoothly and she was able to set us up on a boat tour quickly without having to wait and told us what to check out during our free time on the island! The lunch included in the capri tour was great but dessert was a little lack luster. For our final tour of the Amalfi coast we had Connie as our guide. She was hilarious and herself and the driver did the best job bring us all the way to the small islands via a bus. I wish we had more time on Amalfi but it was nice to see everything. All the tours we did, the driver offered us waters which was so nice. Overall we recommend all of these!
