Pompeii, Herculanuem & Vesuvius: Skip The Line Tickets + Roundtrip From Pompeii

Additional Information & Description

Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvius bring the story of the AD 79 eruption into focus through two Roman archaeological sites and the volcano that changed their fate. This day trip from Pompei connects all three, combining time among the ancient remains with a visit to the volcanic landscape above them.

Explore two preserved Roman sites

Pompeii and Herculaneum are UNESCO World Heritage Sites where the eruption preserved distinctive features, frescoes and grand architecture despite its destruction. Exploring both gives you two settings in which to examine those surviving details, rather than limiting the day to a single archaeological site. The visits are self-paced, so you can give your attention to the buildings and painted surfaces that interest you without following a guided group.

What your ticket includes

The trip includes skip-the-line admission to Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvio National Park, along with roundtrip transport from Pompei. These are the three stops covered by the ticket, bringing the archaeological visits and national park admission together in one excursion. A guided tour is not included: the emphasis is on independent exploration at the sites rather than commentary from a tour leader. Food and beverages are also excluded.

See the landscape of Vesuvius

The national park adds a different perspective to the day. Here, the focus shifts from Roman buildings to the natural setting of Vesuvius, with panoramic views forming part of the visit. It is a change of scale after exploring the archaeological remains: the surrounding landscape becomes the subject, giving the excursion a natural as well as historical dimension.

Use the Pompeii audio guide and map

An audio guide and map are included specifically for Pompeii, providing commentary and a reference for your independent visit there. The audio guide is available in Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish. This support applies to the Pompeii portion of the trip, rather than serving as a guided tour across all three stops.
