Explore the ruins of Herculaneum on a guided tour with an archaeologist guide. Stroll through one of the best-preserved Roman cities and discover buildings like the Temple of the Augustales and the House of Neptune Benefit from skip-the-line entry and discover the ruins of this former bustling port town, home to wealthy merchants and nobility, whose lives ended dramatically fast with the eruption of Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago. Learn about life in this city, and the blast that destroyed it. See the waterfront, where the remains of more than 300 people lie, who died trying to escape by taking to the ocean. Explore the Samnite house, the thermal baths, the Temple of the Augustales, and the Forum. Discover the House of Neptune and Amphitrite, and the Gymnasium and see well-preserved stone, marble, and ceramics that survived the eruption, but also carbonized wood, paintings, and mosaics.
the site and exhibits were wonderful
Super Führerin mit ausgezeichneter deutscher Sprache!
Sara was a knowledgeable & engaging guide. Obviously so passionate about this time in history. She made our visit to Herculaneum truly a highlight of our time in Italy.
Excellent guide, very knowledgeable, really interesting and engaging. The in ear radios were fiddly and didn’t sit too well on the kids (8 and 10), wired earpieces / headphones work better, but other than that everything else was excellent. Would definitely do again.
Nous avons passé un excellent moment lors de cette visite d'Herculanum. Notre guide, Adriano, a été remarquable : très instructif, captivant et passionné, au point que les 2 heures sont passées beaucoup trop vite ! Le site est très facile d'accès en train. En venant fin octobre, nous avons profité de conditions idéales : des températures très agréables et une affluence modérée qui permet d'apprécier les lieux en toute tranquillité. Je recommande cette excursion sans hésiter !
Luciano Leone was the most enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide we've had in the two weeks that we've been traveling in Europe. He really was passionate about the topic. Made us laugh a lot. Highly recommend him.
The group for my Herculaneum visit total three people, including me. That was great. Herculaneum is not crowded compared to Pompeii. my Pompeii tour with the same company was in a group of about 20 people. The Herculaneum guide was very laid-back, which made for a very comfortable pace. He was also born in Pompeii, and had a lot of local knowledge of the areas history. The tour lasted almost exactly the two hours as described.
