Our guide Luciano Leone was a fun, interesting and knowledgeable guide to take us through Erculano. Our group of six had a 13 year old child who was very interested in archeology. Luciano was sure to include her. We were very pleased with our guide and we received great value for the price. 😙

Anna, our guide, was knowledgeable about Herculaneum and its history. She was both matter of fact and emotional, showing emotion about the deaths of those bodies found on site. She answered all questions clearly and was easy to understabd.

Our guide was excellent. He took his time, had great insights, and fully answered any questions that were asked. The museum that was added since our last visit is really spectacular. The items included in the museum are incredible to view.

We had a lot of fun. My only issue is that entrance was free that day because of Italian Labor Day. The only reason I booked a guides tour weeks in advance is because I could not find regular entry tickets online that for day. My only advice is do some extra googling to see if it is an Italian holiday.

The tour was excellent. Our guide, Luciano Leone, a retired archaeologist was absolutely excellent. Knowledgeable, well prepared and a captivating performer who had us engaged throughout the tour. Having also visited Pompei, Hercalanium gave us a holistic picture of the Vesuvius disaster.
    • Skip the ticket queue and walk straight into one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the world, guided by a licensed archaeologist.

    • Unlike Pompeii, Herculaneum was buried under a pyroclastic surge so swift it preserved wooden furniture, food, and carbonized remains that paint a startlingly complete picture of Roman daily life.

    • Your archaeologist guide leads you through the Samnite House, Forum Baths, Temple of the Augustales, and the House of Neptune and Amphitrite, with rich context at every stop.

    • Visit the waterfront boathouses, where the skeletal remains of over 300 residents who fled toward the sea were discovered — one of the most emotionally charged spaces in all of archaeology.

    • Groups are capped at 20 guests, keeping the experience intimate and giving you real room to ask questions, slow down, and absorb what you're seeing.

    • Access to Archaeological Park of Herculaneum with priority entry

    • 2-hour guided tour of Herculaneum

    • Expert English, Spanish, French, German, or Italian-speaking archaeologist guide (as per option selected)

    • Private tour with an archaeologist guide (as per option selected)

    Luciano Leone was a fantastic guide offering an insight into the site and history in a very special way
  • Two thousand years ago, a city of merchants, nobles, and bathhouse regulars was buried in minutes. Today, it's yours to walk through, with someone who has spent years excavating exactly what you're about to see.

    Getting started

    Enter the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum using your priority entry ticket and proceed to the designated meeting point inside the site. Here you meet your expert archaeologist or language guide, in a group of up to 20 people. After a brief introduction to the site and its history, your 2-hour guided tour of Herculaneum begins.

    Archaeological Park of Herculaneum

    What to expect

    This guided tour focuses on the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum, preserved under volcanic material from the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 CE.

    Features

    • Walk through the streets of Herculaneum with your expert English, Spanish, French, German, or Italian-speaking archaeologist guide, who explains how the town functioned before the eruption and how it was preserved.

    • Use fast-track or skip-the-line entry, as per your selected option, to access the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum and spend your time inside the ruins rather than in the ticket line.

    • Join a small group of up to 20 people or a standard group of up to 25 people, depending on your chosen option, with headsets provided for groups over 10 people so you can clearly hear the guide’s commentary.

    • Follow a 2-hour route through key areas of the site as your guide highlights architectural details, everyday objects, and building layouts that reveal how people lived in this coastal town.

    Wrapping up

    At the end of the 2-hour guided visit, your tour concludes inside the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum, leaving you free to stay longer and explore on your own if you wish. If you prefer a more personalized experience, you can choose a private tour with an archaeologist guide in English, Spanish, French, or German, which includes skip-the-line or fast-track entry and a dedicated 2-hour walkthrough tailored to your interests.

  • What to bring

    • Photo ID: Carry a valid photo ID, as you may need it at ticket check.
