About this tour

An interactive quest through the ancient city of Pompeii that turns the archaeological park into one long adventure. Legend has it that before Vesuvius erupted, the banker Lucius Caecilius Iucundus hid a strongbox full of treasure. Almost two thousand years have passed, and now the team must find its traces. Following an ancient map, the children look for symbols, decipher cryptic signs and complete tasks that bring them closer to the answer.

How the tour goes

At the start the children get a map and their first riddle. The route then runs through the streets of the ancient city, from the forums to the Roman houses. At every stop they:

  • decipher ancient symbols
  • look for hidden clues
  • solve historical riddles
  • collect pieces of the secret map

Every completed task brings the team closer to the hiding place.

What you will see

  • the ancient streets of Pompeii
  • the Roman forum
  • the houses of the city's residents
  • original frescoes and mosaics
  • the places where archaeologists found real treasure

What you will learn

  • how the people of Pompeii lived before Vesuvius erupted
  • why the city ended up buried under ash
  • how archaeologists find ancient objects
  • what secrets one of antiquity's most famous cities still keeps

Who it suits

  • families with children
  • children from 6–7 years old
  • anyone who loves stories and adventure
  • anyone who wants to see Pompeii for real, not as a museum

How to prepare

  • comfortable shoes
  • a hat in summer
  • water
  • a readiness to search, think and unravel mysteries
  • Entrance tickets to the Pompeii archaeological park are paid separately.
  • The quest is built so that the children are the ones on the adventure while the grown-ups help them find clues and solve riddles. Even children who usually tire quickly on tours get through Pompeii with interest — because this is not a history lesson but a genuine investigation.
