Pompeii: The Liveliest of the Dead Cities

Discovering Pompeii: the liveliest of the dead cities

Everyone knows the history of Pompeii and by now we know everything about ancient Pompeii. That’s why I want to begin with something we do not know about Pompeii. Few people are aware that Pompeii was once among Italy’s largest and wealthiest towns within the Roman Empire; few realize that agriculture—wine growing and olive production—was central to its economy, supplying these products across every country around the Mediterranean; very little attention is paid to how easily ships coming from places like Greece or Spain, Egypt or Turkey, would dock right outside our front door so to speak - arriving straight through *Porta Marina*, the grand gateway facing out towards the open waters – hence its evocative title! And did anyone ever stop to consider just how close Pompeii actually used to be to those same seas? The massive volcanic explosion of AD 79 pushed them some eight hundred meters away
 So let me invite you instead to experience life here ‘through the eyes’ of sailors docking in such an affluent port town after long voyages upon the high seas... Prices Start From €250 For A Guided Tour Lasting Two Hours Thirty Minutes With Groups Of Between One To Ten People Or Increase By An Additional Hundred Euros Per Person When You Have Eleven Up To Fifteen Guests On Board Your Private Voyage Through Time Not Included In This Price Are Entrance Fees Which Cost Each Visitor Twenty Two Euro
