About This Tour
Choose to relive the history of the elegant city of Herculaneum with our expert guide! Here you will admire ancient artifacts from over 2000 years ago almost intact, which differentiate this site from Pompeii, making it a unique and unmissable experience! The tour begins with an overall panoramic view of the entire archaeological park. We will pass through a tunnel dug in about 20/25 meters of volcanic materials to reach the ancient beach of Herculaneum, where about 300 people on the run found death and whose skeletons we see today. Upon entering the city, everything will be a step back into the past, among refined details of Roman houses, shops and spas.
