It arrived promptly by email I wasn't however aware that in addition to the tour I would have to buy an entrance ticket. This I feel should have been made clearer The tour leader was very helpful and knowledgeable and made our visit to the museum more enjoyable

Our ticketing experience was good, especially since it was a bit last minute. The Naples Archeological Museum was amazing and Adella did an excellant job conveying stories and the history of the artifacts. Pompeii finnally came out of a book for us. We always get so much more out of the experience when we explore with a local instead of doing a self guided tour. Thank you!

Maria was a phenomenal tour guide, explaining the meaning and history behind the various statues, paintings, and frescoes. I booked this inside three days, and was glad I did! I spent an additional two hours after the tour, so the included entry fee was well worth it.

Your experience

Discover one of the world’s greatest archaeology museums in Naples, in a small group tour, with the assistance of an expert guide. To the untrained eye, it is difficult to interpret the vast collection present at the National Archeological Museum of Naples.

Learn about the art and culture of the ancient world as your archaeologist guide takes you through Greek and Roman sculptures, frescoes, mosaics, and artifacts. Your guide will also provide insights into the treasures uncovered at Herculaneum and Pompeii; the Farnese Collection; and the Gabinetto Segreto.

Enter the museum and be enchanted by the grandeur of the marble and statues in the Farnese’s collection. Wander the galleries and admire the legendary statues of Hercules, and the majestic group called ‘Tour Farnese.’ Marvel at the mosaic of Alexander the Great as you walk through the rooms and corridors of the museum. See silvers from the House of Menandro in Pompeii and a number of Roman frescoes excavated from the Vesuvian area.
