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.
This experience is perfect for history enthusiasts, culture lovers, and anyone eager to be moved by a journey through time, art, and memory.
Please note: In accordance with regional regulations, site entry is free on the first Sunday of every month.
