Herculaneum was buried by twenty-three meters of volcanic deposits after the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. It was the Bourbons who brought it back to light, thanks to a casual discovery made in correspondence with the ancient theater of Herculaneum. The excavations offer the visitor the opportunity to observe the urban fabric, the distribution of the houses, the magnificent spa complex, the sumptuous gymnasium and the monumental basilica.
The perfect state of conservation of the woods, the bronze parts and the façade of the houses gives a complete picture of both the various styles of Vesuvian painting and the residential building that evokes the previous daily life.
Among the most important archaeological remains of the city: the Collegio degli Augustali, the Baths, the House of Neptune, and Anfitrite, the Casa Sannitica and the beach where more than 300 people died in search of salvation.

Pick-up / Drop-off service 1. The pick-up/drop off service is a service that is provided for FREE to allow you to participate in the tours. It is a shuttle service, so it is not a taxi nor a NCC. 2. The pick-up time will be confirmed after the booking. The shuttle service is carried out in "sharing" mode, for this reason the pick-up time is to be understood as starting from the indicated time and for the following 30 minutes. Unfortunately, it is not possible to provide a more precise timetable due to numerous variables, such as traffic and possible delays of customers to be collected. 3. To facilitate the shuttle service and avoid chain delays, guests are requested to be ready for the agreed time and indicated on the voucher. 4. Likewise, to facilitate the drop off on return, customers are required to respect the schedule of the program and communicated by the staff on board. 5. With our free shuttle we assign a time limit for each activity we have to perform. If due to force majeure, road interruption, or to any reason that prevents us from reaching the pick-up location, and we consume our time limit, we must necessarily change, cancel, postpone or permanently cancel the activity. For tickets purchased, only if possible, we will postpone or cancel them.
We deliver our voucher on the pick up
