Easy to purchase tickets and entry to Herculaneum was seamless. The redemption point was clear and directions through Google maps were great. It was the best time if day and year to visit- no queues, no crowds, easy to see all areas apart from those undergoing restoration.

It was so easy booking tickets for Herculaneum on Headout! The site itself is well restored giving an interesting insight into life prior to the eruption! It was heartbreaking going down to the previous shoreline and seeing the skeletons of those who were waiting to be rescued! Loved the paintings which are still visible all these years later! The only downside is that it is at least 20 min walk from the station. We struggled to find a bus or taxi to take us to the site.

Fellow travelers- for Pompeii they do not send you your tickets, you have to go exchange your voucher for a ticket which took an additional 20 mins because I had to wait in line with those buying tickets. Honestly felt like I could have bought tickets there instead of through a 3rd party. I am sure there are times of the year when tickets sell out but something to consider. Herculaneum tickets were sent directly to me, and there was no line. I had an 8:30am entry and showed up at 2pm and they let me in no problem. I recommend going to Pompeii first because it is more popular.

It is impressive to see in person how deep the city was buried and how far from the sea. That the skeletons were found on the jetties is very impressive. Finding the works of art that decorated the houses, frescoes, mosaics ... statues is a marvel.

It was extraordinary, the guide was very kind, he explained it very well with anecdotes and jokes, punctuality, excellent tour. We could not enter the part of the amphitheater because that day there was dinner of the G20 leaders.

Your experience

Herculaneum Tickets

Step into the ancient world of Herculaneum, a town believed to have Greek roots due to its distinctly Greek name. It's not just any town – it traces its origins back to the 6th century BC! Forget the hustle and bustle of Pompeii; Herculaneum is like a hidden gem, smaller, less crowded, and remarkably preserved.’

Bypass the long lines and wander through the ancient streets, where you'll come across houses with intact upper floors, a grand basilica, marble bathhouses, a sprawling spa complex, and various other architectural wonders from the Greco-Roman era. Marvel at the temple of the Augustales, an ancient structure that pays homage to the Augustales, a priestly order dedicated to the cult of Emperor Augustus and find frescoes, murals, woodwork, metal artifacts of the Roman era.
