Built 2,000 years ago... But how logical, functional, beautiful and cared for! The villas are perfectly integrated into the landscape, the windows offer magnificent views of the Neopolitan bay and mountains, socially significant buildings are striking in scale and proportions. Even drinking fountains (utilitarian in their purpose) are decorated with marble heads and arranged systematically and quite often! Aesthetics and harmony with nature amaze modern man, and how fantastic this city was 20 centuries ago .... I can't imagine!

It was very easy to find the place to change the voucher for the tickets, and it was very close to the entrance. Pompeii looks amazing! You can walk there for a full day. Also, there is the official app where you can find descriptions of the places and an audio guide.

There was no guide in Portuguese but I managed to understand very well in Spanish and our guide was simply sensational. Without him I have no doubt that the tour would not be the same. Thank you

What to expect at Pompeii

1/5

First sight and entry

You arrive at Pompeii through the historic Porta Marina. The ancient stone-paved road unfolds beneath a warm sun as you pass olive trees and remnants of columns. Early visitors enjoy a quieter atmosphere with fewer crowds entering the vast archaeological park.

Explore Pompeii’s ancient streets

Stroll along cobbled streets lined with preserved ruins and ancient murals. You pass by the bustling Forum, stately basilica, and remains of bathhouses that reveal everyday Roman life. The soft echoes of history set a deliberate, unhurried pace as you wander.

Discover Pompeii’s timeless heart

Reach the iconic Forum where ruins of temples and market stalls whisper stories of ancient life. Marvel at the amphitheatre and poignant plaster casts in the Garden of the Fugitives. This profound centerpiece evokes the tragedy and resilience of Pompeii.

Upgrade to guided insight

Opt for a guided experience to access hidden layers of Pompeii. With a knowledgeable archaeologist, discover exclusive routes including the Villa of the Mysteries and intimate commentary on frescoes. This upgrade streamlines your visit, reducing wait times and deepening your historical context.

Exit with lasting impressions

As you leave through the quieter Piazza Anfiteatro, the ancient ruins recede into a modern backdrop. The soft glow of the afternoon sun and distant view of Mount Vesuvius remind you of Pompeii’s enduring legacy. A reflective farewell concludes your journey.

Things to know before booking your Pompeii tickets

Booking window
• Tickets are best purchased online up to several days in advance during peak season.
• During busy months (April–August) and on free-entry Sundays, advance booking secures your preferred time slot and may reduce waiting times.

Entry & access
• All Pompeii tickets are for timed entry only; you must arrive within 15 minutes before or after your slot to be admitted.
• Timed entry tickets bypass the ticket counter but not the mandatory security check, where waits of around 15–30 minutes are common in peak conditions.

What’s included
• A standard Pompeii entry ticket grants access to the extensive open-air archaeological park. It covers the core ruins and main highlights found along ancient streets, baths, and public sites.
• Standard tickets do not include suburban villa circuits (such as the Villa of the Mysteries) unless you purchase the the 'Pompeii Plus' ticket.
• Optional add-ons like audio guides or guidebooks are available with select tickets to provide historical context for self-guided exploration.

Ways to explore
• Self-guided visits offer flexibility; using a map or audio guide can help you navigate the expansive ruins at your own pace.
• Guided tours are ideal for efficient routing and insightful commentary that brings Pompeii’s history to life. These tours often include reserved entry and may feature small group sizes for a more personal experience.
• Combo tickets combine Pompeii with nearby attractions (such as Herculaneum or Mount Vesuvius) and sometimes include train or coach transfers from Naples or Sorrento, offering a fuller day-trip experience.

Policies
• All tickets are nominative and require a valid ID on entry (name on ticket must match name on ID). Once you leave the site, re-entry is not permitted.
• Dogs larger than 40cm or heavier than 10kg are not permitted. Service animals with valid certification are allowed.
• Note that while accessible routes are offered (such as the “Pompeii for all” path from Piazza Anfiteatro), the uneven terrain means not all areas are suitable for visitors with mobility challenges.

Explore the ruins at Pompeii

1/11

Temple of Apollo

Dedicated to the Greek and Roman god Apollo, the temple has 48 Ionic columns and stands on a high podium. In this compound, you will find a statue of Apollo archer and the bust of Diana in the original locations that they were in before it was buried under debris.

Villa of the Mysteries

The site is fabled for its frescos which are believed to illustrate the initiation of a woman into a Greco-Roman mystery cult. It was discovered in 1910 and is said to have belonged to a wealthy family that resided in Pompeii during the Augustan Era.

The House of the Tragic Poet

This is a 2nd Century villa deemed to have the best interiors amongst all the houses in Pompeii due to the still-visible frescoes and elegant decor. Archaeologist Antonio Bonucci excavated the house in 1824.

The Temple of Isis

Dedicated to Isis, an Egyptian goddess, this was one of the first sites that surfaced when the Pompeii excavations began. Principal devotees of the temple are believed to be women, slaves, and freedmen.

Pompeii Spectacula

Pompeii Spectacula, the amphitheater of Pompeii, dates back to around 70 BC. It is not only the oldest surviving Roman amphitheater made of stone but also predates the Colosseum in Rome by over a century!

Stabian Baths

The Stabian Baths stand close to the Forum and are the oldest in the city. Much like other Roman baths, there were different rooms with thermal pools of different temperatures and depths.

House of the Vettii

Spanning an entire block, the House of Vettii is one of the largest in Pompeii, preserved in almost pristine condition. This luxurious Domus, through its fresco and pictorial depictions, tells a great deal about the rich merchants of Pompeii.

House of the Faun

Also known as Casa del Fauno, this house was built during the 2nd century BC and is found to be one of the largest and most impressive private residences in Pompeii. It houses 2 atriums, one intended for residence and the other for work.

Forum of Pompeii

The Forum was the hub of cultural and political life in Pompeii. It housed the marketplace, bathhouses, and a unique, cross-shaped courthouse that later influenced European churches.

Gladiator barracks

IIn Pompeii’s later years, the colonnaded structure behind the Theatre served as gladiator barracks. It housed a kitchen, mess hall, stables, and an armory. Excavations revealed helmets and ornate parade armor in several rooms.

Basilica of Pompeii

The Basilica of Pompeii, built in the 2nd century BC, was the town’s main law court and commercial hub. Located near the Forum’s west corner, it is one of Pompeii’s oldest and most significant public buildings.

Visitors reading information plaques on a Pompeii VIP small group tour.

• Porta Marina Superiore: This is the main gate, located directly across the road from the Pompeii Scavi train station (100m away). Sees longer queues mid-morning.
• Anfiteatro di Pompeii: Located to the east of the archeological site, this entrance is a 15-minute walk from Porta Marina and closer to the modern town of Pompei. A quieter entrance, this entrance is ideal for those with mobility issues.
• Piazza Esedra (Porta Marina Inferiore): Alternative to the Superiore during peak season, this entrance is only marginally less crowded and is about 300m away from the Scavi station. Leads to the Antiquarium.

Tips and guidelines

Avoid entering through Porta Marina after 10am since crowded queues slow entry and create tight bottlenecks at security lanes.
Begin your visit at the Forum by 9am: fewer groups allow cleaner flow and easier exploration of ancient streets.
Pause at the House of the Vettii courtyard earlier in the day for optimal viewing. The soft morning light clarifies vibrant fresco details.
Steer clear of the steep steps near the Stabian Baths during peak heat; uneven stone floors increase slip risks.
Respect designated paths at the Lupanar. Look out for restricted zones that enforce no touching to protect delicate wall artwork.
Use the quieter Piazza Anfiteatro entrance for a smoother start. Its open layout reduces navigation challenges and crowd pressure.
Avoid backtracking towards the Temple of Jupiter area when harsh sunlight falls; congested corridors compromise clear viewing.

Frequently asked questions about Pompeii tickets

Is the official Pompeii Express ticket enough for a first visit?

Yes, the official Pompeii Express ticket provides access to the main ruins. It covers the ancient city on a self-guided visit lasting about 2–4 hours. For suburban villas, consider an upgraded ticket option.

Should I opt for a guided tour or explore Pompeii on my own?

Guided tours are ideal if you want historical insights and efficient routing through Pompeii’s highlights. Self-guided tickets with an audio guide work well for visitors who prefer a flexible pace and independent exploration.

Do I need skip-the-line tickets for Pompeii?

Pre-purchased tickets help you bypass the ticket office queue, but they do not eliminate security checks or capacity controls. Skip‐the‐line branding generally covers only the purchase stage, so expect a short wait at security.

Can I combine a visit to Pompeii with nearby sites?

Combo tickets, such as those including Herculaneum or multi-day passes, work well if you plan to explore multiple Vesuvian sites. For a standalone visit, the standard Pompeii Express ticket is usually sufficient.

What are the typical entry wait times at Pompeii?

Wait times vary by season and time-of-day. Early mornings or shoulder seasons often see waits under 20 minutes, while summer afternoons and free‐entry Sundays can result in queues exceeding 30 minutes.

Is Pompeii accessible for visitors with limited mobility?

Pompeii’s uneven stone streets can be challenging. However, the “Pompeii for all” route from Piazza Anfiteatro offers a more accessible path, though visitors should still expect some ramps and uneven surfaces.

Does the standard ticket include access to suburban villas?

No, the standard Pompeii Express ticket covers only the central archaeological park. To visit sites like the Villa of the Mysteries, choose the city + villas ticket or a multi‐site pass.

How strict are the timed-entry slots at Pompeii?

Tickets are time-slotted to manage visitor flow. Arriving after your designated window may result in delays, as entry is subject to capacity controls and security checks at the gate.

Is advance booking recommended for Pompeii tickets?

Advance booking is advisable—especially during peak seasons and free‐entry Sundays—to secure a specific time slot and minimize waiting at the ticket office on busy days.

Are there guided tours available with skip‐the‐line entry?

Yes, many guided tours offer skip‐the‐line entry combined with expert commentary. They provide a structured 2–3 hour experience that efficiently covers key sites like the Forum, amphitheatre, and thermal baths.

What should I pack for a visit to Pompeii?

Wear comfortable, closed‐toe shoes and bring water, sun protection, and a hat. The open‐air ruins have uneven terrain and limited shade, so proper preparation is essential during hot days.

Can I re-enter Pompeii once I exit?

No, Pompeii tickets are single‐entry. Once you exit the park, you must purchase a new ticket if you wish to return on the same day.

Skip long ticketing queues & save upwards of an hour with timed entry. Explore the city silenced by ash at your own pace.

From Rome: Pompeii Entry Tickets & Sorrento Day Trip

Skip the queues at a legendary archaeological site, cruise along one of Italy’s most scenic coastlines, and sip fresh limoncello where it’s made.

Day out to Pompeii and Sorrento from Rome, in an AC coach with round-trip transfers.
You'll get round-trip AC coach transfers from Rome, an English-speaking tour leader/host, skip-the-line entry tickets to Pompeii, a scenic Amalfi Coast drive, followed by free time in Sorrento and limoncello tasting.
Pompeii: With priority entry, explore a city frozen in time at your own pace. Visit well-preserved villas like the House of the Vettii, an Amphitheater that predates the Colosseum, see the plaster casts of victims, and more.
Sorrento: Continue to Sorrento, a town near the Amalfi Coast. Sample their world-famous citrus liqueur, limoncello, and enjoy free time to relax by the sea or indulge in boutique shopping.
Upgrades: Opt for a multilingual guide for comprehensive insights into the ruins at Pompeii. For the added convenience, choose a hotel pick-up and drop-off from your stay in Rome.
