Description
Step back in time on a small-group guided tour exploring the ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, two of Italy’s most fascinating archaeological sites. Discover the remarkable ruins left behind by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. as you walk through streets frozen in history.
Your English-speaking guide will lead you through Pompeii, where you’ll encounter well-preserved homes, temples, and public spaces. The volcanic ash that buried the city also protected its treasures, offering visitors an incredible glimpse into daily Roman life. After your Pompeii visit, enjoy free time to relax or browse local shops before continuing your journey.
Board the Circumvesuviana train for a short ride to Ercolano, where the ruins of Herculaneum await. This city, once buried under a deep layer of mud, is smaller but even better preserved than Pompeii. Marvel at intact mosaics, vibrant frescoes, and the rare second stories of ancient buildings.
Your tour includes expert guidance throughout, as well as admission fees to both archaeological sites and the train ticket between them. Please note that meals and hotel transfers are not included, so plan accordingly. Tours are conducted in English or Italian, with headsets provided for larger groups.
This immersive experience lasts approximately five and a half hours and is limited to a maximum of 15 participants, ensuring a personalized atmosphere. Don’t miss your chance to uncover the secrets of these legendary Roman cities—secure your spot now before spaces fill up!
