Planning to visit the Herculaneum Ruins while on holiday in Sorrento and Amalfi Coast? Named after the mythical Greek God, Hercules, the Herculaneum Ruins just like the must see Pompeii Ruins, was buried beneath 16 metres of ash after the famous eruption of Mount Vesuvius and to this date is also one of the most preserved sites of the world. Although it isn’t as well known or as large as the Pompeii Ruins, Herculeneum’s Ruins are very impressive and definitely worth visiting!

The Ruins of Herculenum have been magically conserved over the years and to this date, even objects such as beds and doors have managed to not decay under all of the layers of ash. If you’re a lover of culture and Roman history and looking from the perfect Sorrento to Herculaneum tour, this is the perfect experience for you.

If you have chosen to add on a licensed guide, they are also very child friendly and will be able to keep your children entertained and engaged throughout the walking tour, giving them a more exciting experience of learning about the history of these ruins. Our half day tour also gives you the option to combine two experiences in one which is a great choice if you’d like to make the most out of your time here in Italy.

The Sorrento to Herculaneum Tour, can be done anytime throughout the year however the time to visit is from May to September, due to the face that the Herculaneum Ruins being located in a deep archeological hole so during the winter months there is a lack of natural light. If visiting in the Summer months we also recommend bringing lots of suncream and sunhats to protect you from the heat due to the very little shade available.
