Overview

Step into ancient history with a private guided tour of Herculaneum, the Roman city buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Smaller and better preserved than Pompeii, Herculaneum offers a vivid glimpse into daily life nearly 2,000 years ago — from elegant villas and thermal baths to colorful frescoes and carbonized furniture. With your expert guide, explore streets that seem frozen in time and uncover the fascinating story of this archaeological gem, rediscovered in the 18th century.

What to expect

  1. Archeological Park of Herculaneum
    2h · Admission ticket included
    The excavations of Herculaneum reveal to the visitor a Roman city buried in a few moments by the violence of Vesuvius in 79 AD, in an excellent state of conservation.
    The city was covered by a flow of pyroclastic material, which transformed into mud and stratified over the city for about 23 meters. Thanks to the particular type of burial in this site, entire wooden structures, decorations, furnishings for daily use and about 300 skeletons of the victims have remained intact.
    The remaining time will be due to transportation to and from the attraction.
