Do you want to visit both Herculaneum and Pompeii with an audioguide on the same day?
Step into the heart of the ancient Roman world with this full-day self-guided experience at Pompeii and Herculaneum, two of the most extraordinary UNESCO archaeological sites. Perfect for travellers who want flexibility and independence, this package combines skip-the-line tickets and official audioguide devices to explore both sites at your own pace.

Witness the dramatic contrasts between the two cities: the bustling streets, villas, and forums of Pompeii, frozen at the moment of the eruption, and the astonishingly preserved houses, mosaics, frescoes, and wooden structures of Herculaneum, safeguarded under volcanic material for centuries. Using your audioguide, you’ll uncover hidden stories, architectural wonders, and the vivid humanity that once defined these ancient civilisations.

You can choose where to start your day, beginning either at Pompeii or Herculaneum.

Pompeii: collect your device at our office on the ground floor of EAV Station “Pompei Scavi – Villa dei Misteri”, Via Villa dei Misteri 1, and access the site via the dedicated line at Porta Marina Inferiore, located in Piazza Esedra.

Herculaneum: collect your device directly at the audioguide desk inside the Archaeological Park, showing your booking confirmation.
