Begin with a comfortable transfer to the archaeological site, where a knowledgeable guide introduces you to Herculaneum’s fascinating history and rediscovery under Bourbon rule. Explore its remarkably preserved streets and discover how volcanic material protected buildings, wooden objects, decorative details, and other traces of daily life.
Continue through the ancient settlement to discover elegant Roman homes, impressive bath complexes, and historic public buildings. Highlights include the House of Neptune and Amphitrite, the Samnite House, the College of the Augustales, and the ancient shoreline, where archaeological discoveries reveal the tragic impact of the eruption.
After the guided visit, enjoy free time to explore the site at your own pace before returning to your selected drop off point. You may also arrange an optional meal inspired by ancient Roman cuisine at a traditional Roman style restaurant. This experience offers a fascinating look into a city preserved by one of history’s most powerful volcanic events.
