Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli

.The National Archaeological Museum of Naples hosts one of the greatest collection of relics from the archaeological areas in Naples and surroundings. As you will see, most of the relics have been found during the excavation works in Pompeii, Herculaneum and Stabiae, but some really interesting pieces of the collection also come from Bacoli, Cumae, Baia and the Flegreian fields area. On the top of that, the Museum also hosts a collection of Greek-Roman statues, a donation to the Museum by the Farnese family. Last but non the least, the Egyptian section has been lately re-opened to the visitors - a must-see that you cannot skip!

This was a wonderful tour. Our guide Anna is an expert in the archeological museum’s works of art. She brought everything to life for us. Additionally, she is highly organized and structured our tour so that it fit perfectly with the previous day’s visit to Pompeii. You could never have the experience we had with the head set. Take this tour!

We had been to Pompeii and this museum had many of the artifacts from Pompeii and other precious historic and ages prior to the tragedy in Pompeii.

Take your time. A stunning building with a lot of very interesting artefacts from Pompeii. It’s a big building which I didn’t do full justice to due to time constraints.

<p>Fiorenza was great, she stayed extra time with us to make sure we cover all the highlights in our own pace. She made sure to customize the tour as per our interest and knowledge level. It is obvious that Fiorenza really likes her job, she made this experience for us extra special by being kind, flexible and friendly, her English was great, grazie mille Fiorenza! : Highly recommended this tour for the cultural travelers and seekers of that extra historical content!</p>

<p>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!<br/> Fiorenza is special. Ask for her by name.</p>

<p>After visiting Pompeii we wanted to see all the art and statuary that was removed for preservation. But it is one thing to look and read all the signs and another to have a tour guide explain to you the meaning and history of each piece. This really brought Pompeii to life unlike any tour we have had. The artifacts were now real and the stories put in context the uniqueness of the situation. Our guide was not only knowledgeable, she was an art historian who could place each piece in context with history. We had a private tour and that really made a difference as we were able to ask questions and get detailed answers without the distract of a large group needing to move on to the next exhibit.</p>

<p>Thank you Maria for a very interesting tour. I learned so much about ancient roman society looking at those artifacts... Not to miss!</p>

A mes yeux, il s’agit de l’un des plus beaux musées du monde. Il faut le visiter tant les pièces exposées sont au-delà du merveilleux avant de se rendre à Pompéi ou Herculanum.

Ho scelto di visitarlo dopo essere stata agli scavi di Pompei per ammirare i mosaici, gli affreschi e le suppellettili provenienti da tale sito. Lo consiglio vivamente.

MONTSERRAT V

Como he dicho en mi anterior comentario merece una visita, tiene tal cantidad de esculturas, recogidas la mayoria de Pompeya y de Ercolano.
