I'm going to be on a cruise that docks in Naples - if I had to choose one site to visit, which would you recommend - Pompeii or Herculaneum?

I'd say Pompeii, if only for the reason that the excavations there have uncovered far more than Herculaneum. I was there about thirty years ago and I imagine more has been uncovered since my visit. Visiting Pompeii will give you a much better overview of Roman life in that time. However if time is really short, Herculaneum would, I think be the better bet as it is a more compact area.
