CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5Off to Pompeii! The entrance was clearly marked from the station. You don’t have to look for it. First, you need to stop by the tourist office with your admission ticket. You’ll find it across the street. They’ll print out your admission tickets, and with those, you can head to Pompeii. There are water fountains in Pompeii, but no places to eat or drink! So you’ll need to bring your own food and drinks. There are cafes and restaurants outside the gate. I didn’t find any restrooms either. Pretty strange, actually.BBarbara T
GroupVerified bookingLast week5/5Buying 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.XXenia I
CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5- A uniquely well-preserved ancient city - Fascinating insights into the daily life of the Romans - Impressive streets, villas, frescoes, and an amphitheater - A UNESCO World Heritage Site of great historical value - Very hot in the summer and often crowded - The site is huge—plan on spending at least 4–6 hours there - Some paths are uneven, so sturdy shoes are recommendedSSamantha Y
GroupVerified booking6 days ago5/5We 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.AAlberto G
CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5It was a unique and unforgettable experience. We won’t hesitate to return, as there are still many places steeped in history that we don’t want to miss. The best part, without a doubt, was the friendly service from the staff, who helped us immerse ourselves in the world of Pompeii.
