Let's get together the magic of Herculaneum: the dazzling ancient city! Your private driver will drop you off to the entrance to Herculaneum park, and I'll be there to live with you this amazing trip back in time! Even if smaller than Pompeii, Herculaneum is even more precious: it's closer to Vesuvius but you can see an almost intact city! It was the city that rich romans chose as a vacation: many houses are still by the beach, and you'll immediately notice the luxury and the preciousness of the decorations. Many roman shops still preserve what they sold: I'll show you how 2floors building survived to the vesuvian eruption! I had the chance to work as an Archaeologist on the preicous Herculaneum pottery and I'll tell you about these amazing studies. We'll see the most fascinating private homes, and recently reopened to the public is the seashore, where we can see the skeletons from the eruption of 79AD.
- Tour starts from the ancient shoreline where people tried to find a refuge from the heat, but no chance! - Following the road backwards we will reach the vibrant center of the town where we could still see wooden stairs, second floor, shops with incredible marble decorations, houses with intact rich painting walls and mosaics made of gold! - Together we'll understand how works a roman bath house (here in Herculaneum is preserved the most beautiful of all the roman time!). - With great critical sense we will understand the reason for the interruption of the excavations and how the modern restorations are proceeding. - At the end of the tour I will show you also a a Roman boat CARBONIZED by the eruption truly intact and few artifacts discovered by my Teacher during the last excavations of the '80s.
