- Parco Acheologico di Ercolano - Explore ruins of Herculaneum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world’s most preserved ancient cities.

Walk the cobbled streets of this UNESCO World Heritage Site with an archaeologist and get a glimpse of what life was like before the devastating eruption. Explore intact buildings at your own pace, see well-preserved frescoes, and imagine the daily rituals of those using the shops, public gymnasium and public thermal baths that can still be seen today.
