The mosaics from Pompeii and Herculaneum are worth the 8 euro admission charge alone. It's such a shame that, like elsewhere in the Naples and sorrento areas, the Italians show such little regard for the multitude of English speaking visitors.

The Faranese collection of Roman and Greek sculpture is amazing, equal to the best that can be found in Rome or anywhere else. The best of the roman frescos and mosaics from Pompeii and Herculanium are also to be found here so don't go to those sites without visiting here too.

Getting to the museum was a little interesting since we were staying in Sorrento. We took the Circumvesuviana train from Sorrento to Pompeii and then from Pompeii to Naples. Once... More
