Frequently Asked Questions

Can I visit without a guide?
No — entry is by mandatory guided tour only, departing hourly. There's no self-guided access.
Is there a children's price?
Secondary sources report a roughly €6 under-18 rate, but it wasn't independently confirmed on the operator's own page — verify directly before relying on it.
Is there a free-admission day?
No — this is a privately/cooperative-operated site, not a state museum, so it's not eligible for 'Domenica al Museo'.
Which pass includes the catacombs?
Grouped as a discount-only site (never a free admission) on several Campania Artecard tiers, with unconfirmed status elsewhere. See the pass cards below for exact terms.
