Very easy to access, although the walk uphill on foot can be quite challenging. The views are absolutely stunning, both from the castle and along the road leading up to it. Definitely worth the effort!

Very inexpensive tickets an elevator to get you to the top and to walk around the whole top of the castle to see views from every angle, which is gorgeous almost like you're on an airplane!

If you bought your ticket online, you need to go to the first ticket window and then turn right. The person checking your ticket might not necessarily mention this. However, the person at the back window won’t hesitate to make you walk all the way around the building again. In short, the directions are a bit confusing. Other than that, it was a great visit—a magnificent view of Naples and a very nice exhibit at the top of the castle.

Easy access with the online ticket, you just show the ticket and they scan it at the front booth. You completely skip the lines, and we didn't wait at all.

E-tickets are very convenient; you can get through security in just a few seconds. The castle is very interesting, and the views from it are just like something out of a postcard. It’s best to visit in the evening—there aren’t many people, and the sunset is beautiful.
