Itinerary

Practical Info

This special tour is not only made-for-children – to arouse their interest -but mainly made-by-children-on-tour: kids will be the actual guides of the excursion finding their way through our special map. Through games, riddles, clues, mimes, etc.. the map of the Ancient City will be reconstructed with its inhabitants and its life.

During the visit, some games will award the kids of little characters to stick to the map – which they can take home.

At the end of the tour, the family will be provided with our original Pompeii For Kids Activity Book to continue the discovery of Pompeii and the Roman World on their own.

The aim of the tour is to provide families or small groups with a chance to visit the highlights of the Ancient Pompeii without the risk of getting tired or bored.

All of the following places will be visited: the Forum, a Theatre, a Bath House, a Tavern, a Private Home and a Temple.

We absolutely loved our trip to Pompeii. Laura was the most wonderful guide. We were desperate to go but also had our 4 year old with us on his first trip away. We picked a time later in the day so not as hot and the site was calm and enchanting. Laura engaged with us and our son with the most fantastic facts and interesting stories. We all loved it. Communication before the trip was also reassuring and prompt. Can highly recommend for big and small people. Thank you we will never forget our afternoon.
