If you're just looking for a bite-sized tour, this half day gives us plenty of time to show you the ancient site of Herculaneum. A residential coastal town which has been superbly preserved due to the fact that it was covered in volcanic mud during the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Please note we do not offer pick up from hotel but we have this general meeting point from where the pick up starts for all: 08:20 Achille Lauro parking area, opposite Europa palace hotel
The archaeological excavations of Herculaneum have returned the remains of the ancient city of Herculaneum, buried under a blanket of ashes, lapilli and mud during the eruption of Vesuvius in 79, together with Pompeii, Stabiae and Oplonti. Found randomly following the excavations for the construction of a well in 1709, the archaeological investigations in Herculaneum began in 1738.
