How much time should I allot to visit Pompeii?

Based on my two visits, I'd think three hours should be fine. It depends on how in-depth you want to get... on a nice day, it's a very cool place to wander around. A veritable ghost town. Oh, and please pet the Pompeii dogs for me. They're everywhere, and ever so friendly.

Hi! Pompeii is a great place. We stopped for a tour of the ruins--probably took no more than 2-3 hours, and we felt we had seen what we came to see. The tour guide was wonderful, explained things in detail--no hurry during the tour itself. Took our pictures and left. I'm sure there must be more to see, but we never felt like we were missing out. <BR> <BR>Enjoy, it is a fascinating piece of history! <BR>Jean

Depends on how much of a museum person you are. We are - big time - so spent 5 1/2 blissful hours there. <BR>We were in Italy with a tour but went on our own to Pompeii. Others in the group went with the tour & felt they were rushed with less than 2 hours. <BR> I guess, for the non-fanatic, 2 - 3 hours should be satisfactory. <BR>
