No need to wait in line – simply get your glasses, receive a quick tutorial from your tour guide, and begin your journey. This unique experience, expertly crafted by archaeologists, will take you on a journey back in time to uncover the daily life of ancient Herculaneum. The glasses' software generates holograms that blend seamlessly with the current ruins, revealing the original appearance of key temples, homes, and structures.
