From Naples: Pompeii and Herculaneum Guided Tour with Transfers

This guided tour departs from Naples and covers both Pompeii and Herculaneum, the two Roman towns buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Return transfers are included, making it a self-contained day out from the city. A licensed guide leads the group through each site, providing historical context that the ruins alone cannot supply.

At Pompeii, the route typically takes in the Forum, the amphitheatre, and the preserved street grid. Herculaneum, though smaller, offers some of the best-preserved Roman domestic architecture in existence, including intact upper storeys and original wooden fittings. Tickets cover guided access to both archaeological parks. For more options around the region, see things to do in Naples.
