Pompeii is a must visit when visiting the Amalfi Coast. Vesuvius in the background and the excavation sites are magnificent. The ticket purchase and admission were easy - the tour is an unforgettable experience. TOP

Virtual tours of ancient sites

If you've always wondered what life was like in Pompeii before or during the volcanic eruption in 79 AD, you don't have to wonder anymore. MAP, that is, the Magic Ancient Pompeii Virtual Museum, offers a reconstruction of a section of ancient Pompeii. With reserved entry, you will get to be the protagonist of daily life while taking in the settings of important buildings (all in 3D) before the volcano rises and erases everything. Experience immersive virtual tours of the ancient streets, buildings, and landmarks of Pompeii, including the famous Forum, Amphitheatre, and Temple of Apollo.

Explore Pompeii at your own pace

Take the time to explore the streets, check out a Roman banquet, or peek into the Lupanar. See the Forum, the city's main public square, which served as a center for political, religious, and commercial activities. Swing by the Pompeii Amphitheatre, one of the oldest surviving Roman amphitheatres, which could seat up to 20,000 spectators and hosted gladiatorial games, animal hunts, and other forms of entertainment. Get up close and see the ancient Roman temples, dedicated to various gods and goddesses, including Jupiter, Apollo, and Venus.

End your experience by seeing the terrible eruption of Vesuvius which decreed the end of one of the richest and most important cities in the Roman Empire!
