🔄 What Makes This Tour Different

This self-guided audio tour costs 50% less than official on-site audioguides while providing permanent access for future visits. Unlike standard rental audioguides that cover 20-30 sites, this app includes 60+ geolocated points with hypertext links for deeper historical context on Roman gods, technical terms, and archaeological discoveries.

🏛️ What You'll See

• The Forum — Pompeii's civic and religious center with Temple of Jupiter and basilica
• House of the Vettii — wealthy merchants' residence famous for restored frescoes and garden peristyle
• Lupanar (Brothel) — ancient red-light district with explicit frescoes depicting services offered
• Amphitheater — oldest surviving Roman amphitheater, built in 70 BC for gladiatorial games
• Stabian Baths — complete Roman bathing complex showing the caldarium, tepidarium, and frigidarium system
• Thermopolium — ancient fast-food counter where Romans purchased hot meals and wine. These establishments reveal how ordinary Pompeians ate outside their homes, with large ceramic jars (dolia) embedded in marble counters to keep food warm.

🗺️ The Itinerary

Enter through any Pompeii gate and navigate using the app's interactive map to locate 60+ geolocated points of interest. The audio guide adapts to your chosen route, whether starting at the Forum, amphitheater, or Villa of Mysteries. Download all content before entering the site as internet connectivity is limited inside the archaeological park. Standing in the House of the Vettii's atrium with the app's commentary transforms the faded frescoes into vivid scenes of Roman domestic luxury. Total walking distance depends on your selected points of interest, ranging from 2-5 km on uneven ancient stone paths.
