Highlights
Discover the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum, one of the best-preserved ancient Roman sites in the world. Buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, this remarkable city was sealed under volcanic material that preserved its buildings, furniture, and even wooden structures in extraordinary detail — often better than nearby Pompeii. Wander through ancient streets and step into elegant houses adorned with vivid frescoes and mosaics, explore Roman shops and thermal baths, and admire the celebrated House of the Deer. Unlike Pompeii, Herculaneum was a smaller, wealthier residential town, offering visitors an intimate, vivid glimpse into everyday Roman life. Make the most of your visit with our digital audio guide, available directly on your smartphone. Explore at your own pace while expert commentary brings each building and artifact to life, revealing the stories hidden beneath the ash.

Itinerary
The Archaeological Park of Herculaneum is one of the best-preserved ancient Roman sites in the world. Buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, the city was sealed under volcanic material that protected its buildings, furniture, and even wooden structures in remarkable detail — often better preserved than nearby Pompeii. Wandering through Herculaneum's streets, visitors can explore elegant houses with vivid frescoes and mosaics, ancient shops, thermal baths, and the famous House of the Deer. Unlike Pompeii, Herculaneum was a smaller, wealthier residential town, offering a more intimate glimpse into daily Roman life. The compact size of the site makes it easy to visit in two to three hours, making it a perfect complement to a day trip to Pompeii or an excursion from Naples. A must-see for anyone interested in ancient history and archaeology.

About Naples
Passionate and chaotic beneath Vesuvius, Naples is the birthplace of pizza and the gateway to Pompeii, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.
The historic centre, a dense grid of streets laid out by the ancient Greeks, is a world of churches, street shrines and laundry strung between balconies. Spaccanapoli cuts straight through it, Via San Gregorio Armeno is lined with nativity-scene workshops, and the Sansevero Chapel holds the astonishing Veiled Christ. Underground, tunnels and cisterns reveal the Greek and Roman city below.
Top-ranked sights in Naples: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
