Guided Tour of Herculaneum with an expert Archaeologist

It’s a private tour, exclusively for your family. You will see a unique archaeological site of its kind in the world admired by thousands and thousands of people. The buildings of the city have been preserved in an extraordinary way, even the second floors and even the remains of beams, furniture and other charred organic finds are visible here. Herculaneum was a small, rich and noble Italian city that overlooked the sea. During the visit you will admire houses, baths, streets, fountains with their decorations, frescoes, mosaics and the skeletons of the victims. The city was destroyed by a terrible eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. and was totally buried by pyroclastic avalanches which preserved it for centuries until it was rediscovered in 1710 by a local farmer named Ambrogio Nocerino. It is a journey through Roman history and archeology without equal.

The guided tour lasts 2 hours and we will see the Roman domus, the shops, the public baths, the market, the ancient beach with the skeletons in the boat sheds. I will show you frescoes, mosaics, marble floors and charred wood objects.
