The group is private, so questions can run as long as needed and the pace is the group's own. An expert guide leads through Pompeii and then Herculaneum, with skip-the-line entry to both sites and a transfer between them.

Most visitors see only Pompeii. Herculaneum earns the second half of the day: its preservation shows even more of how residents lived thousands of years ago. Both towns were busy commercial centres, and both were wiped out in a single afternoon in 79 AD. The guide tells the story of that day and of the history and culture that came before it.

  1. Via Villa dei Misteri, 1, Pompei

    In front of Bar Sgambati, Via Villa dei Misteri 1, next to the Pompeii Scavi regional train station. The guide holds a LivTours / LivItaly Tours sign.

  2. Archaeological Park of Pompeii

    The walk goes straight into the excavations with skip-the-line access, past ancient road layouts, residential planning and sewage systems, and along the shopfronts that once drew traveling traders. It reaches the Forum, where religious, economic and commercial life met, and the ancient basilica, an architectural prototype of the later Christian basilica. Residential streets bring stories of how Pompeii's residents lived and loved.

  3. Archeological Park of Herculaneum

    About 5 miles southeast of Naples, Herculaneum matches Pompeii in richness and history. The guide accompanies the group on a quick ride to the site. Volcanic material preserved even wood and other delicate materials, so beds and food remnants from that day can still be seen. Depending on the route, stops may include the House of Galba, the baths with mosaic floors and the Samnite House.

  4. Corso Resina, 187, Ercolano
