Pompei: New Discoveries, An Exclusive Archaeological Tour｜Italy

Step into the most exciting chapter of Pompeii’s story with this unique guided tour led by a professional archaeologist. Far from the usual routes, this experience takes you through the latest excavations and newly reopened sites, offering a rare and privileged perspective on the ancient city.

Your journey begins at Porta Marina Superiore, the original Roman gate, where you’ll enter Pompeii just as its ancient inhabitants once did. After an introduction to the city’s history and the dramatic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, witness the haunting plaster casts of the victims — a moving reminder of the tragedy that froze Pompeii in time.

From here, explore the Roman Forum and the recently reopened Forum Baths, where extraordinary frescoes and mosaics have emerged in vivid detail. Continue into Regio V, the epicenter of Pompeii’s newest archaeological revelations.

See the Tower of Mercury, the only Roman defensive tower left and step inside the House of the Vettii, reopened after 27 years of restoration, showcasing the finest example of Pompeian red and intricately detailed frescoes.

After it, the tour goes to the House of the Silver Wedding before arriving at the Insula of the Chaste Lovers, a live excavation site where archaeologists and restorers are actively working — a rare, behind-the-scenes glimpse into history as it is uncovered.

Conclude your tour in a newly inaugurated area with modern amenities, carrying with you the memory of having walked the very path where Pompeii continues to reveal its secrets, even today.
