Enjoyed Villa Dei Misteri and found some of the ruins interesting. The preserved mosaics were beautiful. Did not book a guided tour which really made finding things around the park difficult. Signposting on site is poor and the whole experience felt very chaotic due to huge numbers of tourists in groups. Paid a lot of money for our entry tickets and we did not receive the audio guide as booked, despite booking from official site. We spent almost 4 hours here and could not find parts we wanted to see due to lack of directions and information . Some parts felt very restored, however, others were amazing so I don't regret the visit. The site itself is huge , an entire city with intact streets . I would advise to book a guided tour if visiting . To be honest, I would not return. Pompeii town itself was pleasant but far too crowded.
It was pretty amazing. Just kept saying wow. Wow. wow. Very hot in late July. Seriously lacks shade. umbrella (for shade) was recommended. Water is easy to find get (fill your water bottle over and over), but not all that much to eat. just a few sandwiches fruit salad and various drinks. So if you have diet issues, you could be in a pinch. Was pretty impressed to see so much of it. It was also very tiring, walking around for say 4-5 hours in labarinthic organization in hot sun.
Simply amazing, incredible how this immense town has survived pretty much intact for nearly 2000 years. Quite moving when you see the prone bodies frozen in time and to see things like the bakery, still with its oven and milling machines or the brothel with its raunchy pictures, the mosaics, the kitchen work tops, I could go on and on. Wear good shoes and expect to be hot but most of all expect to be amazed. A must do.
An incredible place to visit and a true highlight of our trip. Walking through the ancient streets of Pompeii is a fascinating and unforgettable experience. The site is remarkably well preserved, and there is so much history to discover. Highly recommended. We had an amazing guide and we highly recommend having a guide.
We visited Pompeii in the middle of summer with a half day tour. The tour ensured we moved through quickly but it also meant we missed four entire sections of the site.
The history of the site is phenomenal and worth the visit. If we did not have a tour guide we would have spent an entire day at the site.
It was quite busy even for a hot summer day. Bring lots of water as there are no filling stations in the site.
