Customer Reviews
Herculaneum is a must see if you are in the area. We picked up a guide outside the entrance called Maria. Maria was an excellent guide. (€150 for two hours, shared by as many people who turn up & want a guide, we had 7 people) Herculaneum was a town of rich people with large villas. It was buried under volcanic lava so much has been preserved. We spent around three hours here and were wowed by the details. Herculaneum had sewers, lead pipes, glass windows, thick plastered walls painted in vibrant colours, beautiful mosaic & marble floors and extremely ornate furniture.
(My trip to the park was part of a cruise destination tour so the tickets and guide were pre-arranged, just to give context.) It was a very interesting and immersive experience, getting to walk through the excavated areas, see inside homes, shops, public baths, and understand how intricate and advanced their understanding of architecture and engineering was so long ago. It's an amazingly well preserved and carefully restored snap shot of what a Roman Empire era resort town had been at the time of Versuvius's ancient well known eruption which also wiped out Pompeii. For anyone who is interested in ancient civilizations and history, I cannot recommend going and seeing it for yourself highly enough and my only regret was that I didn't have time to see the excavation of and artifact museum of Pompeii as well.
A must see! Herculaneum is a really well preserved little town, lost to us on the same day as Pompeii. In many ways it is similar to Pompeii, but there are a few exceptions. The town, as a whole, is better preserved, so it feels more like you are walking g through a living place. There are more items in situ, which makes the visit less up and down. It is less busy with tourists, which is obviously better for a number of reasons. It is much smaller and so you can see everything, at a leisurely pace, in about 2 hours. A wonderful experience, if you like history it is highly recommended.
