Review of Naples’ National Archaeological Museum ticket, with Pompeii frescoes, Roman mosaics, booking tips, and warnings about voucher problems.
“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.”
