The ruins of Herculaneum
The ruins of Herculaneum were accidentally rediscovered in the 18th century. While digging a well in 1709, workers uncovered ancient marble statues and other artifacts, leading to the systematic excavation of the site. Located very close to Pompeii are the remarkably preserved Roman ruins in Herculaneum that tell you about the life that was before Mount Vesuvius erupted. Enjoy personalized attention and get in-depth knowledge of the city's history from your knowledgeable guide. Once buried under the ash, the historical ruins at Herculaneum still tell a lot about the inhabitants, the occupancy, and the lifestyle they led back in the day. Get to see the shops, the beautiful public baths, marvels like their sturdy pillars, mosaic work, and sophisticated way of life. The town boasted impressive infrastructure, including public baths, a gymnasium, a theater, and several large villas adorned with exquisite frescoes and mosaics. Notable villas include the Villa of the Papyri, which housed an extensive library of papyrus scrolls.
This tour is tailored to give you an in-depth understanding of Herculaneum's history, uncovering myths and gems that make it the UNESCO site that it is today.
