Pompeii Walking Tour
Pompeii, Italy
Why Walk Pompeii
Pompeii was a thriving Roman city of 11,000 people when Vesuvius buried it under meters of volcanic ash in 79 AD. The ash preserved streets, homes, shops, temples, and even food in astonishing detail. Walking through Pompeii is like stepping into a Roman city exactly as it was nearly two thousand years ago.
