Pompeii Entry Tickets

We arrived at Pompeii on a Monday around 12pm and found it to be quite busy. Our pre-purchased tickets required us to check in at the tourist center which was unexpected and a bit confusing to find and set us back an hour from scheduled ticket time. With the help of a local ristorante owner we eventually found the location where we were bombarded with sales people who tried to sell us maps as well as a listening tour guide device, which needed to be returned before the park closed, or a QR code to listen on our own phones which did not cover much of the sites. I would recommend getting there as soon as the park opens to avoid an onslaught of guided tour buses. Also, which entry gate your ticket is for, plan ahead on where to park if you are driving there. Arrive and at least half an hour before your scheduled ticket time unless you already know where to go to get your tickets printed for entry. There are three entrances to the park and you really need to know which one your ticket is for. As for Hurculaneum, I found this to be a more intimate and relaxed experience. It is a far better preserved site with more mosaics and frescoes, far fewer people and felt far less hurried. All in all an experience not to be missed. In both Pompeii and Herculaneum we were approached by private tour guides inside the park for an added cost but chose not use them. Viewing the human remains in both parks felt invasive on a very personal level and I chose not photograph them out of respect.

An amazing experience. Rich in history and content from the get-go. The ruins are so well preserved and access is very open allowing such a great insight into life back in Pompeii 2000 years ago. At times you can almost imagine youself walking through the town in its prime. I recommend giving at least 2 hours to walk around the ruins, and at least 4 for those who enjoy learning about hsptry and taking in the detail. Parking was easy, plenty of food / service areas and despite the large crowd, we rarely felt held up by the amount of people, due to the amount of content and size of the town. I will return.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Pompei experience. A truly amazing place to visit. It is extremely large and I did not cover the whole site in the 3hrs I was there. I booked my ticket online and then needed to exchange this for a ticket on arrival. I chose to have the audio guide through my phone, which was very informative. I would highly recommend a visit.

Pompeii was really cool, we didn't realise just how big it was until we got in and started to walk around the place! There were plenty of toilets once inside so don't feel like you need to use the paid toilets before entry. Tickets were simple to retrieve once we found the exchange point. Worth a go!

Pompeii is really very big... October is a good time to visit. Not so crowded and a pleasant 20 degrees. We stayed just over 4 hours and it was never boring. So much to discover. An unforgettable experience.

This was an easy way to Skip long lines. The experience was simple with excellent directions to collect tickets and they were printed ready at the kiosk despite only purchased the morning of our selected session. Highly recommend

Wow. The moment you step inside, it feels as if you’ve gone back in time. Every stone speaks to you. It’s as if time has stood still—only “missing” are the people who once lived there. A breathtaking experience…

The purchase of tickets is very accessible, the attention of the staff is very diligent and they are very friendly, the entrance is immediate, without queues, and they are easy to find, the virtual guides are excellent!

Forum and theatro...and the bodies of the persons who were burnt there...it was impressive...the stores. ..the big villas and or course the nice gardens...I loved them

It's well worth walking through the streets of Pompeii and learning about its history. The city is well preserved. It's huge. You get a general idea of how people lived back then.

Easy booking and entry without any issues. Really helpful for accessing the site. Especially with the skip the line entry. Would use again for other places.

Such a unique experience to walk around the city, where time has stopped almost 2000 years ago! Highly recomend to go there.

This is amazing place. It take you hundreds of year in the past. You can feel truly what happened in Pompei

The history and guided audio tour

A dream come true in Pompeii The visit to Pompeii was a profoundly moving experience that turned a simple trip into a journey through time. Everything was flawlessly organized, from purchasing the tickets to entering the site – a simple, quick, and hassle-free process that allowed me to enjoy every single moment. I was overwhelmed with emotion as I walked along the cobbled streets of a city frozen in time almost two millennia ago. Every corner, every wall, every fresco told a story – a story of daily life, of joys and tragedies in a world long gone, yet still alive through its silent testimony. It was as if history itself came alive before my eyes. The organization of the visit was remarkable. The atmosphere, combined with the feeling of directly witnessing fragments of life from an ancient civilization, made me reflect deeply on the fragility and, at the same time, the strength of the human spirit. I loved that I could explore at my own pace, with the freedom to pause and contemplate every detail. This visit was not just a tourist trip, but a lesson in history, humanity, and introspection. I left Pompeii with a full heart, immense gratitude for the opportunity to be there, and the desire to return. I wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone who wishes not only to see a place but to live a story.

We had a fab tour, upgraded to a physical tour guide which was well worth the money.. we saw the baths, the upper class houses, shops and takeaways and houses where several generations would have lived. It was thorough and there were plenty of photo opportunities, we weren't rushed at all. After the tour had finished (2 hours) we were able to stay in Pompeii and continue exploring. I wish we'd done the amphitheater with the guide as I would have liked to have known more about this, that possibly my only criticism. Lovely day, we had lunch in the cafe at Pompeii and this was reasonably priced although queues were long.

Booking was easy. Even though we had to go 20 minutes to the entrance, it was hard considering that we had little time to be inside. And the tickets nobody told us where they were and we had to walk around a lot to find the place where they were printed. It would have been easier to enter through the upstairs door and show the tickets online. Also we had to wait in the store 20 min more for them to print them. But the experience inside was fine. Too big for just a few hours. But I will come back someday

A must visit if you visit Napels and are interesting in the history of Pompeii. Just buy the entry ticket upfront and skip the line and save a lot of time. Buy a regular trainticket in Napels for just under €4,- and a train ride of 30min brings you to Pompeii Pompeii is very interesting. Most interesting are the amfitheater , Palestra Grande, Big Theater, Forum, Villa's, the smaller houses and the main street. Another must visit is the Mount Vevusius

Fun is not the right word, but the overall experience of seeing a city devastated by so much violence is very special. Tip: Buy your pompei + card here, put car at Camping Zeus and start at amphitheater where you also have to pick up your tickets on the other side (Bit of a walk) then finish your afternoon at House of mysteries. Near the Zeus campsite. S6

It went super easy buying tickets online. It was clearly described about the 3 entrances. We parked the car in a small parking lot near the entrance to the Amphitheather, where we exchanged the voucher for tickets. We walked right into Pompei. Not a minute in line.

Pompeii was not crowded which made it wonderfull to really see the sights. Booking and information provided with Headout was very easy and informative. Definitely wear comfortable shoes and check the weather. Overall it was great and i would do it again. Prepare for it to be a full day

It's just so impressive to be able to walk through this city and admire these buildings. Definitely worth a trip. With the audio guide it was also very easy to find your way around and you had an explanation of all the important things right away

Having booked online in Australia weeks prior took the stress out of trying to buy tickets in a foreign country when you don't speak the language and avoiding all queues. We could then enjoy the experience of being in one of history's greatest sites.

The guide was informative clear and concise and with a good sense of humour. The site at Pompeii was as good as we expected but it was great to have a guide who took us to the most important places and made the trip a special one.

Tickets Skip the Line bought online a week in advance only to lose 15 minutes to get tickets???? I found that less Ok. Otherwise super by especially the many Roman reenactors in town.

Tickets were easy to collect although we made an error and went to the wrong entrance initially. The experience was great not too busy definitely a must trip

The audio guide is perfect for getting around Pompeii. It directs you and as it has the map you don't have to look at the paper map to know where you are going.

No wow, you have to have good legs to walk the stone roads. History is the best story without seeing the places.

Pompeii is a beautiful city, certainly worth a visit and Pompei tickets throug Headot was very helpfull. The process went very smooth.

Everything was very impressive, the villas and some of the well-preserved murals. Clean toilets everywhere. Relaxed cats

Overall experience. Would highly recommend any other family members who may be considering going to see Pompeii and the ruins

Once we figured out where to redeem the tickets as it is not at the main entry gate our experience was more than expected.

A huge open-air museum exploring the famous and tragic history of Pompeii. We loved it so much. Thank you, Italy.

O experienta inedita.Nu credeam ca orasul putea fi atât de bine pastrat.O munca titanica de aducerea la lumina trecutului!

Very good organization, no queue for admission. Very good guide in English. In spite of the heat, very good experience.
