Pompeii and Herculaneum: Full-day Private Tour W/Transportation

You will be guided to discover the ruins of Pompeii with a professional guide; I will be with you from the start to the end of the tour, showing you most of the Domus (houses) that belonged to the wealthiest families of the antique town with their beautiful frescoes and mosaics, some of the public buildings of the city heart, such as the Forum, some temples and a theatre. Even though the town is smaller than Pompeii, it can be considered a sort of "jewel" of local archaeology and that is the reason why you cannot miss this visit! The same eruption of mount Vesuvius that destroyed Pompeii in 79 AD affected Herculaneum, too, but causing a different kind of burial and, consequently, a diverse preservation of the ruins. I will show you how good the state of preservation is and how wealthy the town was during the Roman empire time. Most of the private houses still have in loco their beautiful decorations, such as glass paste mosaics, frescoes and marble statues.
