Sorrento To Pompeii & Herculaneum - Day Trip

Don’t miss the chance to join this memorable tour which takes you from Sorrento to Pompeii and Herculaneum, cities forever frozen in time over 2000 years ago after the eruption of nearby volcano Mt Vesuvius preserved them in layers lava, ash and volcanic mud.

Explore the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, the cities whose inhabitants and buildings were frozen in time after the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79AD.

Probably the most well-preserved example of a Roman residential town, Herculaneum is brought to life by your knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide.

See the residential coastal town of Herculaneum before the start of your tour of the well-preserved archaeological site.

The buildings are so well preserved in Herculaneum, you can walk down the streets as the Romans would have done more than 2000 years ago.

Visit the home with carbonised furniture which has a room with the marital bed still intact.

See the public baths with well-preserved mosaics and frescoes and buildings such as the House of Argus, which, judging by its grand courtyard, was the home of a wealthy Roman.

Following your Herculaneum tour, enjoy a break for coffee before departing for Pompeii.

Your two-hour tour of Pompeii, Herculaneum’s bigger and more commercial neighbour, takes in all the main features of the city including a town brothel, bakeries, baths and much more.

At the end of the tour, you’ll return to Sorrento for around 4.30pm.
