Skip the lines to visit one of the most outstanding archaeological sites in Italy and walk around the volcano that buried it, on this excursion to Vesuvius and Herculaneum from Naples.

Vesuvius & Herculaneum Excursion

We'll meet at 9:30 am at Piazza Garibaldi, where we'll board a bus to travel to Herculaneum, an ancient Roman city with significant cultural heritage.

Upon arrival, you'll receive a skip-the-line ticket to the site, allowing you time to explore it at your leisure. Important monuments include the House of the Deer, the Forum Baths, and the decorated buildings like the House of Neptune and Amphitrite.

After three hours of visiting Herculaneum, we'll head towards Mount Vesuvius, enjoying the scenery of the Gulf of Naples along the way.

Upon arrival, we'll ascend to an altitude of 1,000 meters and you can take the path to the crater of Vesuvius, with views of the Bay of Naples.

You will see the slopes of the volcano formed by solidified lava flows and learn about the eruption that buried Herculaneum and Pompeii in 79 AD.

After visiting Vesuvius, we'll return to Naples and drop you off at the starting point around 4:30 pm.
