What makes this tour special?
“Pompeii for All” is a route specifically designed (since December 2016) for visitors with limited mobility (including wheelchair users) or for families with strollers. This route starts at Piazza Anfiteatro and ends at Piazza Esedra.
This Pompeii tour for visitors with movement restrictions lasts three hours, while the tourist market usually offers a 2-hour visit.
This tour has all the hallmarks of excellence, with a longer-than-usual duration and a highly professional guide, an archaeologist or art historian.
Pompeii for All
Pompeii is well worth a visit for those with mobility impairments (including wheelchair users). However, it is important to be clear: not all of the ancient city is accessible to wheelchair users. Pompeii is an ancient city with uneven streets, slopes, and structural limitations. Therefore, you won’t be able to see everything, but you will see enough to make your visit truly special, because Pompeii IS a special place, unique in the world.
There are only two places on Earth that suffered the same fate: Santorini in Greece and Pompeii. In both cases, a terrible eruption destroyed an entire civilization: Santorini (4,000 years ago – the Minoan civilization) and Pompeii (2,000 years ago – the Roman civilization).
Walking through Pompeii along authentic Roman streets and observing how our ancestors lived 20 centuries ago makes this experience truly unique.
The “Pompeii for All” path, created by the Superintendency of Pompeii with the “Great Pompeii Project,” allows access to the main areas and provides a clear understanding of the size and structure of the city. The ancient city extends over 150 hectares, but it also extends beyond the city walls.
Be prepared for all weather conditions, depending on the time of year of your visit.
Our 3-hour tour with an archaeologist (or art historian) begins at Porta Anfiteatro and ends at Piazza Esedra.
IMPORTANT: If your wheelchair is manual, the presence of a companion is required to assist the visitor with limited mobility.
