• IAMME IA! - Gray Line - Departure from Sorrento, pick up directly at your accommodation or at the meeting point. Drive to Herculaneum; the ride lasts about 45 minutes, just sit comfortably and relax on board.
• Parco Acheologico di Ercolano - Situated in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum was an ancient Roman town destroyed by volcanic pyroclastic flows in 79 AD. Its ruins are located in the comune of Ercolano and are the best-preserved ones in the area; a unique location frozen in time. Together with your official guide, you will walk into a living picture of 79 AD.
• College of the Augustales - It is believed that the building was a center of the cult of Emperor Augustus and the headquarters of the Collegium Augustalium (or possibly even the local curia).
• Casa dei Cervi - The Casa dei Cervi is an impressive example of a Roman noble family’s house that, before the volcanic mudslide, boasted a seafront address. Constructed around a central courtyard, the two-story villa contains murals and some beautiful still-life paintings.
• Central Thermae - The “thermae” were the city’s public baths. There were relatively few private baths, and these were limited to the wealthiest families, as they were the only ones who could afford to build rooms suited to the purpose. The thermal bath buildings were divided into two sections: one reserved for women and one reserved for men. Each of these contained a series of rooms with different functions: changing room, cold bath room, tepid bath room, hot bath room, all well preserved over the years.
• House of the Skeleton - The House of the Skeleton, probably the aggregation of three smaller buildings, derives its name from the discovery of human remains in a second-floor room in 1831. Some inhabitants shut themselves in their homes and died there either by suffocation or because of the extreme heat of the gases that hit the town.
• Partem Domus lignea - Casa del Tramezzo di Legno - The Partem Domus Lignea owes its name to a folding wooden door discovered here; it was used to separate the atrium from the tablinium (the studio of the owner). In front of the façade, it’s still possible to admire the benches where the clients waited to be received by the host.
• Salone della Barca di Ercolano - After the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, many inhabitants fled for their lives, reaching the beach. The men tried to protect women and children, but the fury of the volcano was unstoppable, and the waves, sand, and lava destroyed the little port and the beach. The wooden boat, recovered from the ancient beach, was covered with a resinous material, which preserved it perfectly, and in 1982 it was brought back to life and put back in the right position so travelers can admire it.
