Herculaneum Skip-the-Line Tickets

Entering the ruins with the on-line purchased tickets was quick, easy, and smooth. Ruins were awesome, as they were on our first visit in 2017.

Beautiful experience and kudos to the guide who delighted us with his stories and the history of this little wonder

Beautiful experience. We visited from Spain. We liked it better than the visit to Pompeii. The excavation staff was very friendly. It is very well restored. In some houses the conservation is so good that you can be transported to ancient Rome and imagine yourself living there. I give a 10/10 to this excursion.

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.

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.

Arrive early to avoid the crowds... the site is smaller and more intimate than Pompei. Superb conservation/restoration work. Small museum next door for a glimpse of everyday objects... perfect audio guide!

Ordered tickets in advance as on a time schedule and wanted to avoid queues. Was worried about a lot of negative comments about website on line, but these were completely unfounded. Even had an email day before ticket booking to alert me to new opening hours for Herculaneum.

I loved the history! I bought the skip the line ticket which was easy to use . Parking right next to the site. I liked it better than Pompeii You can get audio if you like Took about 3 hours great experience!!

Site was very interesting. I'm sure getting tickets in advance would be really helpful in the busy season, but when we went there were no queues. Instructions were misleading, our tickets were actually collected outside the main ticket office.

Easy access from the metro. Free lockers. Loved the large area to take in views from above. Grounds weren't too massive, easy to cover and enjoy in a reasonable amount of time.

Tickets were easy to purchase and use upon arrival. Staff were polite. Herculaneum was clean, easy to navigate, and incredibly well preserved. If have kids, or just don't feel up to wandering Pompeii in the summer heat, Herculaneum is smaller and arguably more beautiful.

Very simple to access the site, well sign posted, staff were very helpful. So interesting to be able to interact and walk around so closely to all of the historic ruins.

Everything. Herculaneum is smaller than Pompeii but well preserved. You get a good idea how the city looked like and how people lived those days. Wonderful

Very easy to buy the tickets online and we really had no problem getting in quickly. Herculaneum itself is an extraordinary experience. I must see if you are in the area of Vesuvius.

I bought the tickets on the internet just 1 hour before coming but I didn't receive them right away, which worried me. They arrived maybe 30m later. Otherwise very nice site, a must see! Very interesting I do not regret

The staff at reception were very professional and pleasant. The arrival at the site was simply brilliant, as we were overlooking Herculaneum. Good directions to the site. I enjoyed the visit immensely.

We did not have to wait in line, there were much less people than in Pompeii and it is better preserved. Of course, the heat was a horror.

Everything was well organized. Good contact by email about start times. Herculaneum really worthwhile. I am positive about this site!

Even in the tourist season, it was very quiet and everything went peacefully. The staff was friendly and the site is beautiful. The fact that you can walk around freely (almost everywhere) makes it a special experience.
