Overview

TUI PLUS - If you want an even closer insight into these two UNESCO sites, join us on this exclusively limited to 25 people per guide. These sister cities were frozen in time for almost 1700 years, destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79AD. Preserved in ash, Pompeii is a fine example of a commercial Roman city. Herculaneum is a quiet seaside town that was actually preserved in mud. Both cities will be brought to life by our guide's commentary through radio headsets, so you do not miss a bit of what life was like during the Roman Empire.

There is also a light lunch included. To give you a skip the line service, entrance fees are included at the time of booking.

What's Included
