Naples: Herculaneum Entry Ticket + Audio Guide and PemCard

1
Gain immediate access to the Herculaneum Archaeological Park with your skip-the-line ticket and immerse yourself in a world frozen in time by the catastrophic eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Explore remarkably preserved villas and streets that tell a poignant story of life and sudden death in ancient Rome. With your audio guide, uncover hidden gems among the ruins, from vibrant frescoes and wooden doors to the stark contrasts between slaves' quarters and opulent Roman homes. Navigate effortlessly with a map through historical markets, fountains, and theaters, and stand where 300 souls awaited rescue, encapsulating a tragic moment in history. Herculaneum offers a more intimate glimpse into Roman life than its famous neighbor Pompeii. Despite being devastated hours later by a ferocious pyroclastic surge, it presents an astonishingly well-preserved snapshot of ancient wealth and domesticity, highlighted by intact clothing, intricate mosaics, and frescoes.

Herculaneum Priority Entrance Tickets

Herculaneum Priority Entrance Tickets

When Vesuvius erupted, Pompeii was quickly buried in ash. Herculaneum (Ercolano in Italian), being upwind, was destroyed over 12 hours later when a 400° C blast of searing ash, pumice, rock and volcanic gas struck at over 100 km/h, essentially pausing the town in that moment. See the old arena, as big as a city block, and The Palestra (Main Hall) which was home to a giant statue of Hercules, hence the town's name. A modern-day visit to Herculaneum puts you in the shadows of Mount Vesuvius, in a town that was wealthier than Pompeii and better preserved. And that wealth is on full display here: in the marble of the bathhouses, in the furniture, even in the items of clothing that were all kept intact, thanks to the volcanic ash and debris which coated it all, acting like a magic time-freezer.
