VISIT HERCULANEUM

Nestled beneath the formidable Mount Vesuvius, the ancient town of Herculaneum derives its distinctive name from the legendary Greek hero Heracles, known as Hercules in Roman mythology. Believed to have been founded by settlers of Greek origin, the town and its imposing backdrop were attributed to Heracles as its mythical founder.

In the cataclysmic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, Herculaneum, akin to its neighboring Pompeii, succumbed to the fury of volcanic pyroclastic flows. However, unlike Pompeii's entombment in ash, Herculaneum faced a unique fate – the searing hot pyroclastic material enveloped the town, carbonizing and preserving perishable items such as food and wooden structures. 

This instantaneous solidification bestowed Herculaneum with more intact ruins, captivating frescoes, and opulent mosaics, showcased in well-preserved structures like the House of Neptune and Amphitrite, as well as the Villa of the Papyri.

Herculaneum's smaller size and less crowded atmosphere provide visitors with a rare opportunity to explore the entire site in a single visit – a feat nearly impossible in the larger and bustling Pompeii within limited time constraints.

• While in Herculaneum, you may either SELF-TOUR independently, or upon request we can reserve an English-speaking licensed tour guide for an informative 2-hour Guided Walking tour of Herculaneum. Please contact us via email for tour guide fees and booking information.
  
  

Following your visit to Herculaneum, you will once again meet your driver who will take you to your hotel or accommodation in Sorrento or Positano.
