Spend a half-day visiting the amazing archaeological site of Herculaneum. In 79 A.D. Herculaneum together with Pompeii was buried under a flood of mud and lava in the Vesuvius Eruption. Due to the particular type of burial Herculaneum archaeological site has been better preserved, also the different typology of town (residential) makes it very different from Pompeii. Unlike Pompeii, Herculaneum is at today still partially buried under the modern town. Return to Sorrento in early afternoon.
During your return journey, relax and enjoy an easy lunch on the slopes of the magnificent volcano.
