Retken kuvaus

Like nearby Pompeii, ancient Herculaneum suffered a similar fate at the hands of Vesuvius erupting in 79AD. Fortunately, archaeologists have managed to excavate parts of the city, and this half-day tour will show you what they've managed to unearth so far.

Fossilised in time by the volcanic rock that tragically buried the city, wandering around the archaeological site of Herculaneum is just like stepping through an open-air history book. This bite-size tour will take you to and from the site in just one morning, with enough time to explore the historical relics on a guided walk.

You'll even see preserved pieces of furniture, upper wooden floors of houses, mosaics on the floor and sculptures as you take a peek around the houses and streets. All this has made it a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and provides you with an unrivalled insight into life of the ancient Romans.

Guided evening tour of Amalfi and Cetara’s signature sights with transfers

Keen to visit some of the most popular spots around the Amalfi Coast without having to deal with huge crowds? Look no further. This evening guided tour to the town of Amalfi and the out-of-the-way village of Catera has been specifically designed to dodge the tourists, giving you a more relaxed look at some of the area's main attractions. Matteo, one of our expert local guides, says “you won't miss out on any of the detail during the tour. You'll get an up-close look at lots of different landmarks, just without having to jostle shoulders or stand on your tiptoes to get a good view.”This tour kicks off with a scenic drive along the coast to the town of Amalfi. The seafront roads in this part of Italy are often considered some of the prettiest in the world, so keep your camera pointed out the window during this bit. When you arrive in Amalfi, you'll follow your guide around the preserved Arsenele della Repubblica. This 1,000-year-old shipyard was originally used to fix galleons and other kinds of boats, but today it's one of the town's top museums. When you're done wandering around its exhibits, you'll have some free time to explore the town on your own.When you're finished in Amalfi, you'll hop on a ferry for a 40-minute journey to the village of Cetara. Very few tours in this part of Italy stop here, so you'll be one of the few who'll get to see its pastel-painted houses and Roman-era landmarks up close. Plus, given the time of evening you'll visit, you can expect a super-relaxed atmosphere, courtesy of the pretty light levels at sunset. You'll have some free time to explore or relax on the sandy beach. The village is particularly famous for its seafood, especially anchovy sauce – ancient Romans settlers came up with the recipe. You'll want to dip into one of the restaurants and try some before hopping on the coach back to your accommodation.
