About this activity

Step back to 79 AD — without the volcano. At Caupona, Pompeii's acclaimed Roman tavern, slip into authentic patrician attire and dine beneath frescoed arches and candlelight.

With table reservations, costumes, and the ruins moments away, it’s the ultimate hassle-free ancient Roman day out.
