Great experience, entry in site without waiting and got full experience of Herculaneum. Herculaneum is so beautifull place, The villas in Herculaneum are very well preserved and give us an excellent picture of the life of the ancient rich inhabitants of the Roman Empire. Herculaneum is much smaller than Pompeii, which was a trading city, while Herculaneum was a resting place for the rich. I like it a lot because it is smaller than Pompeii and it seems to me that there are many more original Roman paintings on the walls of the houses, as well as original prayer altars in the villas of the rich. All in all, I recommend that visitors, in addition to Pompeii, also visit Herculaneum in order to get a complete picture of the life of both ordinary people and the rich inhabitants of ancient Rome. My visit to Herculaneum is a great life experience that I will never forget and I can freely recommend it to anyone who is nearby. Entering and staying in the locality of Herculaneum is very easy, fast and pleasant!

The experience was great. The ticket pickup location wasn't exactly where Google Maps directed us, but there were staff members there asking if we were with HeadOut, and they immediately gave us our printed tickets. After that, we just had to walk right through the entrance, skipping the lines. As for Pompeii, there’s nothing more to say—you have to see it for yourself. It’s incredible that it’s so well-preserved after all these years. We absolutely loved the visit.

Incredible experience, the area is extremely well preserved and it took us three hours to see absolutely everything. There are several mosaics that are still completely intact, as well as original tiling and decor from 2000 years ago. You can download the Ercolano app for the digital audio guide at no extra cost. Take plenty of water with you, although there's several shaded places to escape the sun. Highly recommended!

Buying tickets is easier than you think. Skip-the-line entry to Pompeii with a QR code. An unforgettable experience—you can see the hard work of the archaeologists and the care that went into restoring the structures and frescoes. The area with casts of human skeletons makes you forget yourself for a moment and reflect on the suffering of the thousands who died in Pompeii. I recommend it to everyone, regardless of age, gender, or nationality. I also recommend Headout’s services.

I visited Pompeii for the first time and it completely exceeded my expectations — it’s one of the most powerful historical sites I’ve ever experienced. From the moment you walk through the gates, you feel transported back nearly 2,000 years. The preserved streets, ancient houses, stunning frescoes, mosaics, baths, and the impressive amphitheater are absolutely breathtaking. What moved me most was the haunting atmosphere — walking the same cobblestone roads as the people who lived there before the eruption of Vesuvius makes history feel incredibly real and emotional. I bought the tickets through Headout and the process was flawless: instant e-tickets, no queues at the entrance, and smooth entry. We spent almost 4.5 hours exploring and could have easily stayed longer. The site is well organized with clear paths, making it easy to navigate even on a busy day. If you’re planning a trip to Pompeii, don’t hesitate — this is a must-visit. It’s far more than just ruins; it’s a profound journey through time. Highly recommended!

Pompeii was one of the most memorable places we visited in Italy. Walking through the ancient streets and standing among the impressive columns made history feel incredibly real. The ruins are atmospheric, full of fascinating details and perfect for taking photos. Our Headout tickets made entry quick and easy.

Easy To find. We didnt take the guided tour cause we are a family full of adhd, so walking a slow pace behind a guide is really not our thing. But we had a blast wondering around with this one of a kind place.

It was easy with the skip-the-line tickets. We skipped the guide and audio tour and went on our own. This was mostly because of the heat. It was really nice, and we got to see everything we wanted to: 1👍
