Full description

Pompeii was a busy port town when the eruption of AD 79 covered it in ash. Today you can walk its paved streets, step into bakeries, baths and villas, see the Forum with Vesuvius behind it and stand in a 20,000-seat amphitheatre.

This ticket gives entry to the archaeological park on your chosen date, with an audio guide to help you navigate a site that is far larger than most visitors expect. Which houses are open varies from day to day, so check the park’s notices on arrival.
