I visited the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, and I have to say it was an indescribable experience. I didn’t expect such a vast and well-preserved city; it really feels like stepping back in time 2,000 years. Walking through the original streets, entering the houses, the baths, and the Forum is something that leaves you speechless. You can sense the daily life of the Romans in every detail, from the frescoes and mosaics to the inscriptions on the walls. The site is enormous, so I recommend wearing comfortable shoes and setting aside at least 4–5 hours. I found everything very well organized, with clear maps and extremely kind and helpful staff. The most moving moment was seeing the casts of the victims and the Amphitheater. It’s an experience I recommend to everyone—Italians and foreigners alike—at least once in a lifetime. A heritage site unlike any other in the world. I’ll definitely be back to see the newly reopened domus!

Visiting Pompeii is truly an incredible experience. I recommend going early to avoid the crowds and the heat. A lot of people think you have to take a guided tour, but that’s not the case at all. I think it’s more fun to do some research beforehand, pick out the sites you want to see, and then listen to their stories with the audio guide. Getting around the site and finding your way using the map makes the adventure more fun. Strolling through the ruins is truly magical. Avoid the guided tour groups. Go your own way.

We were able to enter the site quickly without having to wait in line, even though we arrived half an hour early. The site is very large, and we walked around for 5 hours. In some places, we had breathtaking views of Mount Vesuvius, and we were able to admire the beautiful frescoes still visible on some of the walls. The museum is also interesting because it displays artifacts and statues discovered on the site. We saved it for last; it isn’t very big, and you can see it all in half an hour.

After seeing Capri from above, we wanted to experience the view from the sea, and we weren't disappointed. This tour is really well organized. From the moment we left Naples—where we picked up our tickets at the company’s counter—to the meeting point for the boat tour, where you’re given clear instructions, everything was perfect. I highly recommend this experience.

Pompeii completely blew us away. Walking down actual 2,000-year-old Roman streets with chariot wheel grooves and ancient fast-food spots felt like stepping into a time machine, not a boring museum. Standing in massive amphitheaters with Vesuvius looming behind was unreal. Absolutely unmissable!

Nothing to complain about—we were able to cut in line, got in right away, and had no problems. Pompeii is bigger than I expected, which is obviously a good thing. With the ticket that doesn’t include a guide, you can make your tour as long or as short as you want—it’s really fun.

An unforgettable experience for both us and our son. The heat was tempered by a gentle breeze and the fountains lining Via dell'Abbondanza. One visit isn't enough—we'll gladly return!

A truly moving experience. A huge site, friendly staff. The restaurant staff, however, were a little less friendly; given the number of customers, they spoke to guests in a rather cold manner without ever smiling.

It was easy to buy tickets with this app. The site is incredible—amazing! It was really hot, but there were shaded areas, so we were able to enjoy the visit! I highly recommend it.

Back in Pompeii after 42 years. A lot has changed. The ruins have been restored and continue to be restored. On that very hot summer day, we were able to relax at the rooftop restaurant.
