Went on a cloudy day with rain and thundet which was good - still hot but no sun to contend with and the small showers cooled you down! Unfortunately tickets I bought was not fast track so had to queue to exchange my online booking for a physical ticket - line was long so ended up waiting about 45 mins!!! Pompeii is huge so didn't manage it all even after 3 hours, but saw all the main parts. Could have done with a lift to get in and out as the slope just after the entrance was steep but with time and patience my 83 year old mum managed it! There's a cafe bang in the middle of the site which was a welcome relief. Also water refilling stations along the way too. Glad we went, we got the train which added to the adventure.

As promised, we quickly entered the Pompeii site through the lower gate after collecting our paper entrance ticket. There are several secure parking lots close to this gate. The site itself is truly magnificent and moving. We spent 6.5 hours there, and even then, we gave up on several areas! We didn't book the houses outside the main site. For children, we recommend the children's museum at Porta Sarno, which is well air-conditioned, full of felt-tip pens for drawing and not very crowded. Perhaps it lacks a play area for parents to relax while the little ones run around safely?

☀️Walking through Pompeii Scavi was like stepping into a living history book. I stood in awe before the grand amphitheater, silent yet powerful in its presence. The preserved villas and delicate frescoes revealed the refinement of Roman life. Every stone street seemed to whisper stories of ambition, beauty, and destiny. I admire the Italians for their devotion in preserving this treasure with dignity and passion. Pompeii is not only a ruin, but a timeless masterpiece of human achievement. Grazie💫

    This was a once in a lifetime experience being able to walk around the ruins of Herculaneum. I was able to experience the history of this area and was completely submerged into all the facts across the ruins. There were so many delicate intricacies which have been preserved so well.

    Beautiful place with amazing feeling of being close to the history
  • Discover two ancient neighboring cities preserved under Vesuvius' ash with a single budget-friendly booking. Save both time and money while you explore Pompeii and Herculaneum in the order you desire.

    Getting started

    Gain access to Herculaneum and Pompeii with your pre-booking and ID card in hand, access the vast archaeological parks, and roam through the excavations freely. Decide when you enter which site.

    What to expect

    Pompeii

    Its famous Villa of the Mysteries has stunning frescoes with a complex diversity of back stories! The space was essentially a grand farmhouse with its own grape press. In 1909, a fresco that stretches over 17 metres long was discovered in one of its rooms. House of the Faun is named after the small statue in front of it. In the atrium, there is a mosaic to be found containing the word ‘welcome’. Another famous mosaic was also in this house - depicting the fight between Alexander the Great and Darius III of Persia in the Battle of Issus in 333BC. Many of the sculptures found in the house are now stored at the National Archaeological Museum for preservation.

    Herculaneum

    Formerly Ercolano, this fishing colony just 15 kilometers away from Pompeii met an interconnected end. Uncover the secrets of the verdant House of the Deer with its animal mosaics, and marvel at the opulent Villa of the Papyri. Immerse yourself in the daily life of ordinary citizens as you walk along the ancient main street Decumanus Maximus, lined with shops and houses. Right opposite the richly designed House of Neptune and Amphitrite, you will find the female entrance to the Stabian public baths. And don’t forget to visit the supposed ancient cult temple rumored to be run by imperially-sanctioned freedmen – College of Augustales.
