Naples Archaeological Museum: Skip-the-Line Tickets & Digital Guide

Our visit to the National Archaeological Museum of Naples was particularly interesting and informative. We had the opportunity to learn more about Naples’ rich history, art, and culture, and to admire numerous artifacts of great value. We especially appreciated that the visit allowed us to learn something new in an enjoyable and engaging way, giving us a better understanding of the historical and cultural significance of this city. It was a truly captivating and enriching experience that made our stay in Naples even more special.

The MANN has so many interesting items in their collections especially those related to Pompeii and Herculaneum. The objects were very easy to view with placards in both Italian and English explaining the history behind the item. The size of some of the statuary was immense and makes you wonder how they were sculpted. Imagine the delight of the archeologists discovering piece after piece of ancient history.

I visited Pompeii and Herculaneum as part of a tour and delayed my return flight to give me a day in Naples. Prior to the holiday, I bought from Headout a retun bus ticket from the airport and a timed entrance to the Naples Archeological Museum. I was quite anxious but everything ran really smoothly. I arrived early at the museum thinking I would need to wait but was taken through past the queue (not lengthy but nice not to join). The museum is in a fabulous building (Sundial Hall) and the exhibits are exquisit. The cameo Farnese bowl and Blue Vase are exceptionally beautiful. The description behind the Memento Mori mosaic, is reflective and is to encourage us to live life to the full. I fully recommend a visit.
