Ordered tickets in advance as on a time schedule and wanted to avoid queues. Was worried about a lot of negative comments about website on line, but these were completely unfounded. Even had an email day before ticket booking to alert me to new opening hours for Herculaneum.

It was easy to book tickets in advance which meant we didn't have to queue. We were able to leave our backpack in a locker for free. The site is small enough for children to manage to get around. Very interesting visit and amazed to see so much preserved history. It felt very sad, though, as it is essentially a large burial ground. Was able to get key info online. A map would have helped which I might have got had I bought tickets locally. I didn't get the audio guide as very expensive and new my 9yo son wouldn't have the patience to listen to it.

Tickets initially only avaialable through the app but sent to me as PDF when requested. Easy to use at the site and Herculaneum itself was fantastic - a fascinating site, well worth the visit. Many thanks for enabling the experience.

A must to visit this museum. We went A Day after our trip to Pompei. Also worth going. But in the museum you see many more restored items from accent times. We have to come back, were not able to see everything we wanten to see.

All of the exhibits were amazing. We especially loved the Pompeii exhibits. Very special! Tickets let you into the museum at ease, no wait!

Herculaneum

Herculaneum, believed to have Greek origins due to its strongly Greek name, traces its history back to the 6th century BC. Unlike Pompeii, it's smaller, less crowded, and exceptionally well-preserved, offering a unique glimpse into life in the first century. Upon bypassing lengthy ticket lines with skip-the-line access, explore various well-preserved features of the ancient Greco-Roman town, including intact upper floors of houses, a majestic basilica, marble bathhouses, and a large spa complex. Additionally, the site boasts an array of frescoes, murals, paintings, woodwork, and metal artifacts.

Naples Archaeological Museum

For history enthusiasts or those captivated by the ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, a visit to the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli is a must! Marvel at an exceptional mosaic depicting Alexander the Great's triumph over the Persians, immerse yourself in the beauty of Pompeian wall paintings, and admire classical sculptures such as the Farnese Bull and Atlas. Delve into the museum's most intriguing section, the Secret Cabinet, where a collection of erotic artifacts awaits, gathered from Pompeii's bars, brothels, and homes. From provocative frescoes to an intriguing assortment of phallic lucky charms, this exhibit offers a unique glimpse into ancient Roman sensuality and culture.
