Campania Express One-Way Tickets: Naples to/from Herculaneum at Naples

Campania Express Naples to Herculaneum Transfer

The Campania Express offers direct rail transfer between Naples and Herculaneum, connecting you to one of Italy's most important archaeological sites in just 18 minutes. This dedicated service runs from Naples Porta Nolana station (with a stop at Porta Garibaldi) straight to Herculaneum Ercolano Scavi, putting you within walking distance of the ancient Roman ruins preserved by Mount Vesuvius.

Perfect for day trips or as part of your Naples transport planning, the express train avoids city traffic and complicated connections. The air-conditioned carriages provide comfortable travel while offering views of Naples neighbourhoods and Mount Vesuvius on the horizon. If you're exploring the region's archaeological wonders, consider combining your visit with Pompeii skip-the-line tickets for a complete ancient history experience.

How It Works

Book your one-way ticket and choose your departure station - either Naples Porta Nolana or Naples Porta Garibaldi. Trains depart every 3 hours throughout the day, giving you flexibility to plan your schedule.

• Show your mobile ticket at the platform (no printing required)
• Board the clearly marked 'Campania Express' train
• Enjoy the 18-minute journey to Herculaneum Ercolano Scavi station
• Walk to the archaeological site entrance from the station

The service operates with regular departures, though you should check specific timings when planning connections with other transport. For those staying in central Naples, Naples hop-on hop-off bus tours can help you reach the departure stations easily.
