In September it was very hot. Our guide tried to keep us in the shade. She was very knowledgeable and took the time to answer our questions. We could have spent more time there as we only saw a portion of the site. We are definitely glad we had a private tour as we learned so much. If we had toured by ourselves we wouldn’t have truly appreciated the site.

Interesting tour to Herculaneum

We were met outside the port gates by Carmelo who had communicated well her location that morning. The drive to Herculaneum was swift and efficient by Antoni P. On arrival we had time to visit the gift shop before the meet up with our guide Maria Grazia. The tour was interesting and well paced for the small group. She was enthusiastic and informative about the ruins and their excavation. Finally Maria guided us through the museum which containrd many beatiful and fascinating artefacts. We returned to Naples in good time to board our ship.

Great afternoon

Great afternoon with Antonio Carolo, our driver, and Patricia, our guide. Very informative about Herculaneum and the area. Special thanks to Antonio for returning my favourite Tilley hat that I left on the minibus. Grazia!
