If you’re planning to explore southern Italy’s ancient past, a private tour from Naples to Herculaneum is an experience you shouldn’t miss. Less crowded than Pompeii but just as historically rich, Herculaneum offers a unique and intimate window into Roman life. And with Sorrento Limo, you’ll enjoy a smooth, personalized experience from start to finish—avoiding the hassle of group tours and public transport.
Why Visit Herculaneum?
Herculaneum, buried under volcanic mud by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, is one of the best-preserved archaeological sites in the world. Unlike Pompeii, where much of the city was flattened, Herculaneum’s buildings, wood structures, and even food remains were sealed intact, giving visitors a rare chance to walk through actual Roman homes with original furnishings.
This UNESCO World Heritage Site is quieter, more compact, and easier to explore than Pompeii, making it ideal for travelers who prefer a relaxed pace and more detailed immersion. You’ll find:
- Exquisite frescoes and mosaic floors
- Multi-story Roman villas with original wood beams
- Shops, bathhouses, and public fountains
- The poignant boat houses where skeletons were discovered
Herculaneum is a must-see destination for history lovers, archaeology fans, and anyone fascinated by ancient daily life.
