Porta Marina e cinta muraria

Porta Marina was one of the main gates of ancient Pompeii and the point where many travelers first entered the city. Located near the port area, it connects to the city’s defensive walls and shows how Pompeii controlled access and protected itself. Through this gate you can still walk along the original stone ramp and see the impressive fortifications that once welcomed merchants, sailors, and visitors arriving from the Bay of Naples.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Basilica

The Basilica is the most imposing and important public building in Pompeii, located in the southwestern corner of the Forum. Dating back to the 2nd century BC, it is one of the oldest examples of its kind in the Roman world.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Temple of Apollo

The Temple of Apollo is one of the oldest and most important religious sites in Pompeii, dedicated to Apollo, the god of the sun, music, and prophecy. Set in a large open courtyard near the Forum, it once featured elegant columns and statues, including a famous bronze of Apollo aiming his bow. From here, worshippers could make offerings and seek guidance from the god, making the temple a central part of Pompeii’s spiritual life.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Foro di Pompei

Pompeii’s Forum offers visitors a direct encounter with the city’s civic heart. From the modern walkways and terraces surrounding the square, you can observe the spatial arrangement of temples, administrative buildings, and market structures that once framed public life. This elevated perspective makes it easier to understand how politics, religion, and commerce intersected in a single monumental space. With the ruins of the Capitolium, Basilica, and Macellum all in view, the Forum reveals itself as a bustling stage where announcements were made, deals were brokered, and festivals unfolded at the foot of Mount Vesuvius.

10 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Macellum

The Macellum was Pompeii’s main food market, a covered complex where vendors sold fish, meat, fruit, and imported delicacies. Its layout of stalls, storerooms, and a central shrine illustrates the organization of Roman commerce and the importance of food supply in urban life. Excavated counters, marble tables, and decorative elements still evoke the lively bustle of shoppers and traders that once filled the market each morning.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Terme del Foro

The Forum Baths were among the most elegant public bath complexes in Pompeii, serving as a social and recreational hub for citizens. Divided into men’s and women’s sections, the complex included changing rooms, warm and hot bathing halls, and a cold plunge pool, all heated by an advanced hypocaust system. Remarkably preserved stucco reliefs and vaulted ceilings still convey the refined atmosphere that once made bathing a daily ritual of hygiene, leisure, and conversation.

10 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Casa dei Vettii

The House of the Vettii is one of Pompeii’s finest aristocratic residences, renowned for its richly decorated frescoes and elegant architectural layout. Built around spacious atria and peristyle gardens, it reflects the lifestyle and aspirations of wealthy merchant owners in the 1st century AD. Mythological paintings, ornamental motifs, and refined domestic spaces offer a vivid glimpse into elite taste and the artistic culture of the Roman home.

10 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Insula dei Casti Amanti

The Insula dei Casti Amanti is a residential and commercial block named after a vivid fresco showing a pair of lovers sharing an affectionate moment. Today visitors access the site via elevated ramps that allow a clear, panoramic view into the workshops, storerooms, and domestic rooms below, without disturbing the fragile archaeological surfaces. From this perspective, it becomes easy to picture craftsmen at work and families moving between spaces, as trade and home life were closely intertwined in Pompeii. The preserved frescoes, painted signs, and half-finished renovations reveal a neighborhood caught in the midst of its daily routine at the moment of the eruption in AD 79, offering rare insight into the city’s urban fabric and the social world of its working inhabitants.

10 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Teatro Grande

The Teatro Grande invites visitors to step into the world of Roman drama and public entertainment. From the upper terraces, which are now accessed by modern walkways, you can look down onto the sweeping semicircular seating tiers, the stage building, and the orchestra area where musicians and dancers once performed. The theatre’s excellent acoustics and commanding views toward the city and Mount Vesuvius help convey why performances here drew large crowds for comedies, tragedies, and public ceremonies. Standing within the auditorium, it is easy to imagine the applause, costumes, and festive atmosphere that made theatre-going a shared cultural experience in Pompeii.

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Villa dei Misteri

Available just in the Premium Plus Option. The Villa of the Mysteries is one of Pompeii’s most renowned sites, famous for its remarkably well-preserved frescoes depicting a mysterious Dionysian ritual.

The visit is included exclusively with the Premium Plus option, which features an extended 3-hour private guided tour of Pompeii, allowing guests to explore this iconic site with expert insight and at a relaxed pace.

30 minutes • Admission Ticket Included

Antiquarium di Pompei

The Antiquarium of Pompeii serves as the gateway to understanding the city before exploring its streets. Visitors move through well-organized galleries displaying statues, household objects, inscriptions, jewelry, and other artifacts recovered during excavations. From elevated platforms and glass cases, you can examine delicate items that would not survive in the open site, while panels and reconstructions provide context on daily life, religion, and the eruption of AD 79. The final rooms present plaster casts of victims and dramatic eruption material, offering a powerful and emotional frame through which to view the ruins that await outside.
