Beautiful places, but you also need an integrated and convenient ticket for only the lesser-known sites such as Boscoreale, Oplontis, Vesuvian Villas. The tour around Regina may take around 30 minutes and you can take the shuttle bus to the other places too, or enjoy walking and exploring the beautiful streets of Italy. On the internet it appears available but it is not true. You can buy the 3-day pass when entering the main site of Pompei. It is very convenient with the shuttle bus that takes you everywhere, to all the Villas as well even in Castellamare. Overall it will be a good 3day trip to explore the whole Pompei. Boscoreale is a name given to any of several Roman 🏛 villas discovered in the district of Boscoreale, Italy. They were all buried and preserved by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius 🌋in 79 AD, along with Pompeii and Herculaneum. The only one visible in situ today is the Regina, the others being reburied soon after their discovery. Nevertheless, among the most important finds from these others are the exquisite frescoes from the of Publius Fannius Synistor and the sumptuous silver collection of the della Pisanella, which are now displayed in several major museums. Well outside the is a pomegranate tree and nobody picks the fruit which is a shame because it was delicious. Interesting for the plaster casts if trees and how deep it was buried by Vesuvius. Unfortunately all the beautiful artwork is at the Naples archaeological Museum!! You An interesting of Nero's second wife. Some lovely status and a fossilised pig. The house is well preserved and there are some interesting features such as the remaining shelves and the wine deposits. It is particularly interesting to see the location of the as it is in a hole dug in the ground. On the way down it is possible to see the sediment layers on the side of the path and realize how much material has been deposited since the eruption. The was closed. Walking from the main Pompeii site to here is not a great experience due to the lack of sidewalks and crazy traffic. Worth visiting, there is a free shuttle bus from the Pompeii site picks up down the road from misteri or outside the main entrance too. You need to make sure you have added the extra sites to your ticket. Some really good exhibits It is not too busy either. Note waiting for the bus can be a while and frustrating as there really is no indication of the stop but they do run at regular intervals there and back. Nice to go as part of Pompeii experience. There's a special shuttle bus going there Honestly, the is not at all superior to other villas in the archaeological site of Pompeii. The still has some exhibits found in the city, which you really don't see in Pompeii. For this I would have given 4 stars, but I gave 2, because we "ruined" the early departure home of the staff. We arrived at the right at 4 o'clock, when it's the last entrance, there were no other tourists, and they didn't like it, they started commenting and pressuring us from behind. We toured the and the quickly, in 25 minutes, even though the closed at 5. A bad experience, even though the guide presented the to us in words. We când visit the museum, but the is nothing wow. Fasinating insight into Roman farming. A good contrast to the main Pompeii site and the luxury villas. Wonderful museum. Very interesting working farm engulfed by Vesuvius. Wine press, storage jars, replanted orchard. Well worth a visit, but be wary in the surrounding array! As others have said, if you aren’t extremely interested in Pompeii I wouldn’t recommend making the trip here. While it is interesting to see the has been preserved to such an extent, you can tour it in a few minutes. Even after spending a short time in the you will be waiting on the bus back to Pompeii. I would not even recommend coming if you have time, let alone just recommending to skip it if you’re short on time. There may be some people who like it, but the average tourist probably could do without! Regina in Boscoreale offers a rare look at rural Roman life, with a well-preserved wine-producing and courtyard. The nearby Antiquarium enriches the visit with artifacts, tools, and casts from the Vesuvian area, making it a fascinating and intimate glimpse into everyday life before the eruption of 79 AD. We had the place to ourselves. Saw maybe 2 other groups. The is small but gives you nice access. The and are both small so it does not take long to go through it.
