The culture and people of Herculaneum - Fabio and Ricardo are outstanding tour guides. Fabio is a wealth of knowledge not only regarding the history of Herculaneum but also a historical encyclopedia of Rome history, culture, politics, and mores. This excursion was definitely a highlight of this trip
