“Très beau musée. Les collections sont exceptionnelles. Un très bon complément à ma visite du site de Pompei. Un remerciement particulier à la personne de l'entrée qui nous a laissé entrée car nous avions une réservation et payés les billets mais Viator doit savoir que les bons d'échange ne fonctionne pas en ce moment, pas de délivrance de billets ... cause Covid. Il faut que Viator puisse envoyer des billets et pas un bon d'échange.”

A guided, small-group tour of Naples’ National Archaeological Museum, with key artifacts from Pompeii, Herculaneum, and the reopened Egypt rooms.
“Our tour of the Archaeological Museum was eminently satisfying. Fiorenza grew up in the area and has both personal and academic knowledge of the region. She directed our attention to various significant objects in the museum- items which had come from Egypt, the Etruscan region, etc - explaining in depth their construction and use, and offering enormous amounts of insight into the lives of ancient Romans in the process. I felt very well prepared to visit Pompeii the next day. My only regret was that we had not booked Fiorenza to accompany us there. Next time! Fiorenza is special. Ask for her by name.”
