About This Tour
Take an immersive time-travel tour experience through the ruins of Pompeii on this 2.5-hour tour using 3D Virtual Reality headsets. Walk through the excavations with a tour assistant (not a licensed tour guide) while using special headsets that allow you to see Pompeii as it was 2,000 years ago before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. You will be surrounded in 360-degrees as you watch 2- to 6-minute historical re-creations in your headset of the main points of interest. Audio commentary in the headset enhances the experience, and is available in 6 languages. A new adventure in sightseeing awaits you. For a tour with a licensed tour guide see our other tour options that say "with licensed tour guide".
