Highlights
During the visit with our professional English-speaking REAL Archaeologist, you’ll see the most important houses and building of the Herculaneum (according to the availability calendar established by Herculaneum Superintendence) like the “House of Dears” (one of the most luxurious Herculaneum residences, with its terrace overlooking the sea and the famous deer statues assailed by a herd of dogs, which give the house its name), the house of “Neptune and Amphitrite”, the “Samnite” house, the thermal baths etc. and we'll take a look at the newly opened pavilion (Padiglione della Barca), that houses the remains of a boat found charred on the beach with a few dozen skeletons and coins. Probably is the last desperate attempt to escape from the eruption.

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).
