This private tour of Herculaneum is the perfect complement — or alternative — to Pompeii, allowing travelers to understand the distinct differences between the two cities and why Herculaneum is one of the best-preserved Roman sites in the world.
With a licensed expert guide, guests will explore a city buried by volcanic material that preserved not only buildings, but also rare organic elements, seeing carbonized wooden doors, furniture, beams, and roofs, details that Pompeii cannot offer.
The tour includes multi-story houses, mosaics, frescoes, bath complexes and private residences in exceptional condition. Along the ancient shoreline, travelers will see the area where human skeletons were discovered, offering a powerful insight into the final moments of the eruption.
Throughout the visit, the guide explains the different burial processes of Pompeii and Herculaneum, showing why Ercolano feels more intimate, complete and emotionally engaging.
