    Pompeii! Grab this amazing opportunity to experience the legendary ruined city for up to 5 long hours!! No group tour comes close. Does a paltry 2 hour tour that cuts all corners justify the long journey from your home country to Pompeii? No, of course not. Take your time in the most important archaeological site in the world! Richly coloured mosaics recall beauty, ancient temples dedicated to Roman gods recall worship, while the infamous plaster casts of victims caught in deadly pyroclastic flow remind us of the catastrophic human toll. The ruined city is full of very detailed information boards so you will learn everything without being disturbed by scripted guide-speak. Pompeii is not just a travel destination, it's a travel sensation and portal to another time and place.
