The Pompei guided tour was very good. It has covered the daily life of the people of Pompei. The fact that the area of the Pompei site is huge, a guided tour truly saves us a lot of time to explore it on our own. A BIG round of applause to our tour guide Igor, who has made the tour very interesting. Highly recommend to those who will visit the Pompei ruins to book the guided tour.

The staff were knowledgeable and helpful, and the area was well-organized, but I must point out a few areas where I found the cleaning to be lacking. I didn’t see any cleaning staff walking along the walkways, and in some places I found paper and food scraps inside the column bases and on the floor (people’s lack of civility isn’t improving).

You walk through a village. Unlike other times, you don't just see the ruins from above—you actually step inside the houses and courtyards, see the fountains, mosaics, inscriptions, and frescoes... you even go into the bars! It's cool—I highly recommend it :)

It was quick and easy; it’s also no problem that the ticket office is 15 minutes away from the shuttle buses—it’s right at the entrance, and the exit is by the shuttle buses. So it makes for a nice loop through Pompeii.

The arrival and physical delivery of the tickets went very smoothly; the staff on site were very helpful; the guidebook was a nice touch—it would be great if it were included in the price of the tour

The tour of Pompeii with Headout was excellent. The instructions upon arrival were clear, and the digital videos were great. The map and guidebook of Pompeii that we bought were very useful.

Contrast the vast scale of Pompeii with the intimate, finely preserved details of Herculaneum, all with one simple, fast-track entry combo ticket.

Breeze past the queues at Herculaneum and wander through well-preserved streets, frescoed villas, ancient bathhouses, and the impressive House of the Deer.

Enter Pompeii at a reserved time to avoid long waiting lines, and explore the Forum, amphitheatre, ancient baths, the House of the Faun, and the moving plaster casts of victims.

Enjoy complete flexibility at both sites, giving you more time to truly absorb the stories, atmosphere, and everyday life preserved within.

The staff was very helpful and understanding, and the service was friendly. I received an email explaining everything clearly; it was easy to find, and the location was great.

I bought tickets with Headout online. When I arrived at the train station, I was met with a rep who said my ticket needed to be changed. I asked, why, she said to go to the desk so they can give me a regular ticket. Once at the desk, the rep said my ticket didn't come with audio anymore only a book/leaflet. They said if I wanted audio, I must pay extra 10Euro per person for a guided tour. I was shocked at this, I just wanted a headset. Once inside Pompeii I saw the audio kiosk issuing audio to guests. Although the guided tour was very good, for 2hours, I felt as though I had been scammed a little.

It wasn't a good experience for me. I didn't realize that I needed Wi-Fi for the audio guide. It's an outsourced service, and the staff at the ticket pickup counter don't treat you well because they just want to sell you more stuff. They don't even seem willing to help. I also didn’t know how to get to Herculaneum, and I lost the ticket I needed to buy my return train ticket (it’s not your fault), but they don’t give change. You’re forced to buy something at the kiosk.

Everything is well-organized and clearly laid out, but even if you book online using a digital travel guide, you’re still expected to buy a device or a book. That’s a strange double standard, and I don’t think it’s worth the price. Otherwise, it’s worth a visit and it’s wonderful there. The staff were also always very friendly and helpful.

Explore both Herculaneum and Pompeii with priority entry. Get a double dose of history in one convenient combo.
