Our tour archeologists Diego made the tour. His knowledge of areas we toured made trip more enjoyable. This tour is not for those that have difficulty walking on uneven surfaces.

The detailed tour of Herculaneum with a slightly more technical perspective from our guide. Plus the private transport to and between both sites, so good!!

The tour was well organized. Diego is an amazing tour guide. Archeologist by trade and story teller by heart. He knows a lot and transports his passion throughout the tour. And seeing those places is incredible. Like of you take a close look at a fresco in one of the many buildings and you see the strokes someone did a looking time ago... You should really see it yourself.
