About this tour

Are you ready to step back in time? Join our engaging guided tour of Herculaneum of the duration of 2 hours and relive life over 2,000 years ago. Unlike its famous neighbor Pompeii, Herculaneum offers a more intimate and surprisingly well-preserved experience of ancient Rome.

Our expert guides, authentic lovers of ancient history, will take you on a tour of a city that has remained suspended in time since the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. You'll walk among perfectly preserved Roman dwellings, admire frescoes in still vivid colors, and observe everyday objects that have come down to us in an extraordinary way. The presence of charred wooden structures makes Herculaneum a unique site in the world, offering an unprecedented glimpse into the daily life of its inhabitants. This is not just a guided tour, but a real journey into the past. Admission tickets are already included and will allow you to skip the line And immediately begin exploration.

The day before the visit you will receive all the information you need to enjoy the experience in total peace of mind. All you need to do is show up with the desire to discover and the curiosity to learn about Herculaneum and its history: we will take care of the rest.

At the end of the guided tour, the experience does not end: you can stay inside the archaeological site and continue the visit on your own, taking as much time as you need to savor the unique atmosphere of this extraordinary place.

    Perfect package

    Purchasing the Herculaneum Priority Entrance Ticket with Digital Audio Guide was a perfect choice for my visit. I avoided the long lines and the audio guide added tremendous value to the experience. Being able to listen to the information directly from my smartphone, without having to rely on a paper guide, was extremely convenient. The audio guide was clear, well-organized, and full of interesting details. An excellent option for those who want a smooth, quality cultural experience.
