Overview of your Herculaneum tour:

Herculaneum is an incredible ancient Roman city, smaller than Pompeii, but much better preserved. It was a rich city of the Empire that faced the center of the Gulf of Naples; many of his houses are superb and elegant, showing that many of his citizens had achieved good economic prosperity. The visit to the Mount Vesuvius lasts about 2 hours and consists of walking around the crater where you can admire a fantastic view of the Gulf of Naples. You walk enough, it is preferable to wear running shoes. I live on the slopes of Vesuvius and for me it's a fundamental element of the landscape, even knowing that it is the most dangerous volcano in the World. Personally, I consider Herculaneum the most preserved archaeological site from the Roman era in the world, a place where time has stopped. Herculaneum is as if it were my second home, it will be an honor for me to accompany you on this fascinating journey into the past. Come and join me in this marvellous tour that will make you feel like travelling in time!
