Great private tour

A wonderful tour with a super knowledgeable, informative and engaging guide, Gennaro, who was very thorough in his descriptions of the exhibits. The museum was so big that there was no way we could have known where to start and what to see on our own especially considering the short time we had. Gennaro guided us through the highlights efficiently and made sure we saw some of the most interesting and important exhibits of the museum including the Farnese Bull and the Farnese Hercules plus the many interesting artifacts collected from Pompeii. We really enjoyed the tour.

Excellent tour.

Nicolette was wonderful. Her knowledge of the museum was only exceeded by her presentation of the history that comes with it.

Blow your mind Museum.

Here you can actually see the real and daily life of people 2000 years ago. Their technology and knowledge if far from what we expected. So much incredible art pieces. The museum is one of the best I ever visited. Can’t be missed.

Fantastic Fantastic Fantastica!

Our tour guide Laura was amazing. Next, I wanted to focus on the Pompeii collection, it is amazing. The mosaics are unbelievable, to think that some were made before Christ and in such pristine condition. That they had medical instruments was very interesting. The Farnesi collection of jewels was beautiful and finally the largest sculpture made of a single block of marble. Originally made by the Greeks "borrowed" by the Italians and apparently isn't going back. If you miss this, you'll be sorry.
