Yesterday

Today we visited Pompeii ruins. So much to see. 9 hours and still didn't see everything. This is our 2nd Headout purchase. The 1st was Vatican City. We purchased skip the line with audio. The skip the line was great! The audio tour was lacking, so we decided to not use it. Each highlight was barely 30 seconds. Pompeii on the other hand was excellent! Skipped the line, walked right in. Audio guide was amazing. One and a half to 2 minute details on like 200 ish sites inside, including navigation to a site if you needed it. Only issue with the audio guide was continuous audio, as if you had a pre-planned direction. The audio continues to talk about sites you have not or are not currently visiting because you are still at the previous site. Overall I still love it. Great purchase!

We arrived at the meeting place, which was very easy to find. The tour was phenomenal—I loved every moment of discovering the fascinating history of this place, where you realize just how fragile human life is. Seeing the remains of a donkey during the tour was striking, but my favorite moment was at the antiquities shop when I saw the tied-up dog and the people of Pompeii, who still reveal so much about their lives even centuries after the event. I highly recommend it.

Disappointed with not receiving the audio guide to use while at Pompeii. Lots of mucking around at Pompeii trying to figure out where to get the audio guide. After contacting the support team and repeating myself over and over, I got disconnected as there was not good reception there. We left frustrated and did not enjoy our experience because of this. The ruins were amazing, but the experience was less than impressive. I don't recommend booking this!

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.

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.

We paid the for most expensive ticket and it was so worth it. Pompeii was an absolute incredible experience to walk the streets of an ancient city and to see the devastation that was left behind. I would 100% recommend everyone to go to Pompeii to walk the streets, and to go inside the museum section to see what was left behind.

What a breeze! Everthing went exactly as planned. And what an incredible day it was. We spent nearly 5 hours walking around this amazing site. I could have spent 3 days there!!
