"This was my first MRT tour and I was blown away by the brilliant execution. Immediately following completion of the tour, which I did alone, I registered my wife and me for the same tour next Spring. Thank you for the best nine days of my life."

Dr Sophie Hay
Roman archaeologist. While at the British School at Rome, she worked on the ‘Insula I.9 Pompeii Project’ directed by Professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill, which sought to understand daily life in an insula of Roman houses through excavation and archival research. After more than a decade of working for the University of Southampton as an archaeological geophysicist conducting surveys across the Mediterranean, she returned to her first passion, Pompeii, and, in collaboration with the Cambridge Schools Classics Project, worked with the University of Cambridge to bring the stories unearthed in her excavations in Pompeii into the classroom. She currently works for the Archaeological Park of Pompeii in their Press and Communications Office, and has recently appeared in a number of history documentaries for television as an expert in Pompeian urban life.
