I studied Ancient History at school and as a treat my wife booked a trip to Rome and Pompeii. Pompeii is vast and the remains are amazing. The audio tour was excellent and we just rambled around taking in the many homes and civic and religious sites.

Queue to get the audio guides (I phones set up in preparation) was short so waited max of 5 mins. Be prepared to hand over your passport or drivers licence as security. So you must ensure you plan to go back to the same office to return phones later and retrieve your item! We had a disabled person with us so security very kindly showed us a quick route into the museum building. It was busy but easily manageable. The map is clear and nformation useful but you cam still enjoy the walk around without it. You have to hold the phone up to listen, or take your own earphones!. Sometimes hard to navigate the screen to find the correct reference point, due to the bright sun.

I recommend the pompei ticket with audio guide. Very little waiting at the ticket office. The audio system is a mini individual box, you type the number displayed on the panels as you visit and the explanation scrolls. Everything is clear and audible. A few comments: - it was over 30°C, and despite the sea air, it's a real furnace. There are water fountains where you can cool off and refuel free of charge. But we were exhausted all the same. - explain in more detail where the ticket office is located. - give more details on where to park your car.

    Everything was ok. Just had to inform the ticket counter of the booking date. Had to check my e-mail briefly, it had already been 2 months. But then I got tickets and an audio guide and was able to enjoy Pompeii

    The experience except for the rain was good. Although there was a broken section of the train line, it was solved with very comfortable bus and train transfers. The audio guide was helpful.
  • With an audio guide in hand, step into Pompeii, the ancient Roman city buried by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and rediscovered centuries later. As you walk its streets, the audio guide will bring the ruins to life, sharing stories of a civilization that thrived nearly 2,000 years ago. Pick your preferred language—French, English, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, or Chinese—and dive into the history of Pompeii.

    From ancient homes and bathhouses to fast-food stalls and open-air theaters, Pompeii was a bustling city. Stroll past fresco-covered walls and statues, and explore its 25 street fountains, four public baths, and countless shops that once kept the town alive.

    Looking for more? Opt for Pompeii Plus for access to stunning villas like the Villa of the Mysteries, Villa of Diomedes, and Villa Regina in Boscoreale, along with the Antiquarium, where even more artifacts reveal the story of this lost city.
