   Herculaneum is different from Pompeii: more collected, more elegant and incredibly preserved. Walking through its streets means really entering the daily life of a Roman city stopped instantly by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD.C. To experience the site to the fullest, a 2-hour tour with an Expert Archaeologist Guide makes it all the more special As you enter, you will be above the level of the ancient city. Herculaneum was buried by 30 meters of very special volcanic material that has preserved intact the charred wood ( something that Pompeii lacks at all ) the Domus of Herculaneum are richly decorated sign of a very rich city , the city seems to be a vacation place of rich Romans and for the first time you see the condominium houses ,The Women's Baths richly decorated .The tragedy is fully felt in the area of the ancient port where 300 skeletons are seen as a crystallized scene still in the instant of the eruption one of the most incredible experiences of the tour
