Creator's Key Takeaways

I really enjoyed my visit to herculanum and I found it to be more pleasant than a visit to Pompei

it was the perfect weight and wind on this final afternoon of my port intensive Cruise

I had to try Holland America line signature candied clothline bacon to start and it didn't disappoint

disembarkation was smooth and seamless luggage pickup points were clearly marked in the terminal

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Visit Herculaneum with a guided tour or an archaeologist guide for a deeper understanding
βœ“Consider visiting both Herculaneum and Pompeii if you have the time
βœ“For independent visits, take a train from Naples Central Station to Herculaneum Scavi
