    The travel agent 'Tempio' wasn't clearly signed and google map journey didn't relate to the exact location. The ruins were very inspiring and I really enjoyed the experience. Thank you Stephen

    Once we found the ticket office, the people there were really nice and helpful. And Pompeii wax beautiful! We did the self guided walking tour. Well worth it, but if you want a more immersive experience, pay the 8 euros for the audio companion. WARNING: If you are picking up tickets at Pompeii Ticket office, just know that Siri (for IPhone, don't know about the others) will tell you the restaurant across from the entrance is the 'arrived' point. Go ahead and drive down and park, when you are walking back towards the entrance to Pompeii, you will see the Ticket office on the right about halfway. Enjoy!

    The Pompeii site is huge and very impressive. The voucher exchange system in the station was a bit chaotic in the office but once i saw someone they spoke good english and were very efficient.
