May was certainly a better time of year to do. The last time we visited was in the month of July and it was way too hot to be walking around an open unshaded archaeological site. We had a guided tour the lasted approximately 2 hours. I suggest bringing a water bottle with you and definitely wear sneakers!
What a fantastic experience
A must when visiting this part of Italy
We took a tour from our port call in Naples on board of the MSC Divina. From the cruise port to the site it was an approximate 45 min bus ride. We took a guided walking tour through the site taking just over 2 hours. The site is incredible and allows you to imagine how life was like back in time. Incredible preserved statues and courtyards. Some of the original paintings and ornaments are still on some of the walls. A must take visit while in Naples.
