Archaeological wonders & convenient transfers

Revel in the ancient past of Naples as you visit two prominent Italian archaeological sites, Pompeii and Herculaneum. Take the local train from Pompeii to Herculaneum to get intimate with local cultures and customs.

Pompeii

Enjoy a relaxed walk around Pompeii and visit its crowned jewels: the Basilica, the Forum, the infamous Lupanare, the Theatres, Casa del Menandro, and more! Listen to the story of this remarkable city with a heartbreaking past- buried under layers of ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Marvel at the famous plaster casts of the victims.

Herculaneum

This city may be smaller than Pompeii, but it is better preserved than Pompeii. Pause at the beach warehouses to cast your eyes over the skeletons of 300 victims. Walk past the charming Samnite House, the thermal baths, the bakery, and the house of Deers, with an archeologist guide beside you for a deep dive into how people of ancient Rome lived, loved, prayed, and died.
