The sight itself is stunning! However, I planned to buy a ticket to Pompeji online, but I was not able to do that. I had to buy a voucher and once there I was supposed to queue up and exchange the voucher for a ticket. Why?

Ticketing was good. Screen a bit difficult to see in the sun and location indicator didn't work. Maybe better with headphones to hear explanation. Possibly next time would choose a guide to accompany

Visiting Pompeii was a fantastic experience! Everything went smoothly, though, as expected, it was quite crowded with tourists. However, the journey from Naples was memorable – the train ride was made special by an accordionist playing traditional Italian music, and the passengers clapping along. I’m not sure if this happens all the time, but it added a lovely touch to the trip. Naples itself is vibrant, with delicious food and plenty to see. Pompeii is a treasure trove of history, offering stunning sights perfect for photos and an incredible opportunity to learn about the past. Highly recommended!

The history and ability to walk about freely with the audio tour guide perfectly suited our needs. We could go at our own pace and our own destinations within the city. If I can do it over again, I would bring more snacks and drinks to help along the hike, as well as headphones to help with the audio tour. Otherwise, you have to hold the audio guide up to your ear like a phone.Jessica

The site of Pompeï and Herculaneum were impressive and a must do when you visit Naples or like us, Rome. You really get the feeling when you walk around, what it would be like to live in that time and with the Vesuvius constant in your sight... it is just horrifiyng to imagine what happend almost 2000 years ago
Step into a world frozen in time—Pompeii, a city buried by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD and rediscovered in 1748. Walking through these ancient streets, you’ll be tracing the footsteps of a civilization nearly 2,000 years old, perfectly preserved beneath layers of volcanic ash.
Once you arrive, step through the entrance, and your journey back in time begins. With Mount Vesuvius looming in the background and centuries-old ruins stretching before you, it’s an experience that’s both breathtaking and surreal. Plan to spend about four hours here—there’s so much to take in. Wander through the Forum, admire the Basilica, or take a break in the shade near the amphitheater. Scattered throughout the city, you’ll find colorful frescoes, intricate statues, and remnants of daily life, from public baths and street fountains to bustling marketplaces that once thrived in Pompeii’s heyday.
As you explore the cobbled streets, you’ll start to notice just how much life back then mirrors our own. From wine barrels to household tools, the everyday details bring the past into focus, making it easy to picture the people who once called this place home.
Want to enhance your experience? Opt for Pompeii Plus, which gives you access to the suburban villas and the Antiquarium.
