Haven't been to Pompeii but been to Herculaneum twice now. A colleague who was an archaeologist recommended Herculaneum instead of Pompeii and it was great advice! It's a great place to explore and see Roman life. Love the Shaun of the Dead reference 😂
We had the exact same advice! Pompeii is apparently a lot bigger and I’m not sure it would be too enjoyable to spend 9 hours out in the Italian summer heat. Perhaps visiting out of season would be more preferable. Thank you! 😂
I was in Naples a few years ago & absolutely loved the place. We took a trip to Pompeii & after spending nearly 8hrs walking round, we still missed off a quarter of it. Herculaneum was a fascinating place too, really strange how the boat arches used to be the sea front. Glad you enjoyed it. 👍

Looks like we made the right decision then! Herculaneum was awesome and perfect for a slow exploring day. Thanks Mark!
Looks like a fantastic day. What was the Air B&B called please? I didn’t catch the name 😊
It was an awesome day. Minus the haircut 😂 The link to the Airbnb is in the video description 😊 Best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in!
