Levi is good Posted March 4, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2022 We will be in Naples on Saturday, August 20th, 2022, as a port on our Odyssey of the Seas RCCL cruise. I have signed up for an "easy" (RCCL's term) tour of Pompeii, which is wheelchair accessible and less physically demanding. However, my family and I do not necessarily need this, it would just be nice to have a bit less strenuous of a tour route, since it's available. But I am wondering if we would see more on a "regular" tour. Is anyone aware of the difference in the two tours in terms of what you see and experience? Thanks in advance.

Rare frantic36 Posted March 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I can't help with the difference between tours but just wish to let you know that August is hot weather. We have visited in late July a few years ago and Pompeii is very hot with little shade. We were in our late 50s and fit, we also come from a hot climate. For example we had multiple days this Summer of over 100F. We really loved exploring Pompeii but come prepared with cold water in insulated bottles if possible, go early and even maybe have some washcloths you can wet to wipe your face and neck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted March 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 4, 2022 There is an accessible route for Pompei, although even they admit it's not particularly wheelchair friendly. This route covers only a small portion of the site but gives you a flavor. You can read more about it and download a map of the route from the official web site here: Pompeii for all - Pompeii Sites 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
