Metropolitan City of Naples
About
Smaller than Pompeii yet incredibly well preserved, Herculaneum offers a more intimate and detailed glimpse into the daily life of ancient Romans. Buried under layers of volcanic material during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, the town retains remarkably intact villas, shops, wooden elements, and vivid frescoes.
Your tour begins directly at the archaeological site, where you’ll meet your guide and start exploring immediately, thanks to skip-the-line access included in your ticket. As you walk through ancient streets, elegant houses, bath complexes, and public areas, your expert guide will share engaging stories and historical insights that bring this ancient town to life.
