Discover Herculaneum

This private tour of Herculaneum begins at the designated ticket office at the specified time. Are you prepared to step back into the era of the Ancient Roman Empire? Let’s embark on this journey!

In 79 AD, the volcano Vesuvius erupted with great force, sending lava and debris over various towns within the Empire, including Herculaneum and Pompeii. The remains of Herculaneum can still be explored today, as it stands as a significant archaeological site where the remnants of ancient structures have been preserved beneath layers of ash.

Our exploration will commence on the ancient North Street, from where we'll proceed to uncover various important ruins. We will pause at public spaces and passageways, including the amphitheatre.

The route will lead us to numerous historical sites within this ancient town, such as Neptune's House, the Temple of Augustus, the House of the Deer, and Casa dello Scheletro.

After a comprehensive 2-hour guided experience, we’ll return to our starting point, where you are welcome to continue exploring the site independently if you choose.
