Escape From Pompeii Water Ride

Temporarily Closed
Tour of ancient ruins flume experience

Even the mighty Roman Empire had been no match for Mt. Vesuvius, which draped Pompeii with a blanket of lava and ash, erasing it from the map for nearly 1,700 years. But don't worry, this angry volcano has long been at rest.

Or has it? Hold on tight as a leisurely boat ride through the ruins of this great city suddenly turns explosive.

NOTE: The heavier the boat is on this water ride, the bigger the splash.
