Explore Pompeii, the city buried beneath a sea of ash, to learn about its history and mysteries! With our brand-new shuttle bus service, which runs three times a day in the summer and twice a day in the winter, getting to Pompeii from Naples has never been easier.
The reconstruction of Pompeii, which was severely devastated in an earthquake, is currently ongoing. The majority of people started to evacuate the city during the first eruption, and barely 2,000 people remained trapped in Pompeii when the last chaos occurred.
Excavations began in the 18th century, and it has been abandoned since then. Through excavation, the city walls have been retrieved. Everything discovered during the excavation was initially sent to the museum in Naples, but archaeologists eventually left artefacts in situ, creating an intriguing excavation site.
