We were through the line quickly at Peastum - it was a beautiful! Pompeii was another story as we were not aware of the 1st Sunday of each month being a Museum holiday where everyone egts in free. We waited in line for 2 hours because the "voucher" did not count as a printed ticket aloowing us immediate acccess, and then we were smooshed in through the gates by hoards of people trying to get in before it closed.

Easy to use and good value for site entry and getting around. Got on train from Sorrento to Herculaneum not knowing it only stopped a few times a day. Went through to Naples and easily caught the train to Herculaneum without extra cost or trouble. 😂

easy access to transport and museums.
but I'd like to take issue with 2 things: the poor explanations on how to activate the card and the need to reactivate it each time it's used.

The entrances were easy.
As for public transport, we opted only for the metro, but the clerk always had to let us in.
But I highly recommend it

What to see at Segesta Archaeological Site?
Flanked by the treasury and chapterhouse, the Church and Sacristy at Certosa di San Martino boasts of beautiful frescoes and paintings by some of Naples's greatest 17th-century artists. These include illustrious names such as Battista Caracciolo, Jusepe de Ribera, Guido Reni, and Massimo Stanzione.
Adjacent to the Church, you can see two splendid cloisters-the Chiostro dei Procuratori and the Chiostro Grande. The Chiostro Grande is the larger of the two cloisters, was originally designed by Dosio in the late 16th century, and features beautiful Tuscan-Doric porticoes, gleaming marble statues, and vibrant camellias.
Just off the Chiostro dei Procuratori is the Sezione Navale. The Sezione Navale documents the history of the Bourbon Navy from 1734 to 1860. It also features a small and exquisite collection of royal barges.
Sezione Presepiale features a whimsical collection of rare Neapolitan ‘presepi’ or nativity scenes from the 18th and 19th centuries. One of the most famous works in the collection is the humongous 19th-century Cuciniello creation that covers an entire wall of what used to be the former monastery’s kitchen.
The bulk of the monks’ historic collection is displayed at the Quarto del Priore, which is in the southern wing of Certosa di San Martino.
You can also see the museum’s most famous sculpture, Madonna col Bambino e San Giovannino here.
Delve into Neopolitan history through a pictorial journey at Immagini e Memorie della Città e del Regno. Over here, you’ll find portraits of historic characters, antique maps, rooms dedicated to major historical events, and a fabled maritime depiction of Naples in the second half of the 15th century.
Below Certosa di San Martino is the Sotterranei Gotici or Gothic Basement. The austere vaulted space of the Sotterranei holds around 150 marble sculptures and epigraphs. Though tours for this area were suspended indefinitely in 2017, for additional information please contact Certosa di San Martino.

My problems relate to the cooperation with Artecard. The support team there was helpful and took care of us. However, they were ultimately unable to help us properly: the transition to Artecard and the handling and updating etc. are simply too complicated. In addition, the list of museums does not match the reality. For example, the Capella San Severo.

On JANUARY 8, I sent the following e-mail, to which I received no reply:
Hello,
I bought 2 Artecard Napoli -3 days from January 7th.
I was unable to validate/terminate the registration despite numerous kind exchanges all morning on January 7 via WhatsApp with Inna, local Headout operator in Naples.
At 2.40pm, in desperation, I wrote to her:
"Hello again, for hours my connection attempts have been unsuccessful. Please e-mail me my two validated tickets to use from what I've paid. Thank you, Walter."
At 3.06pm, I tell him:
"Since I can't validate my tickets, I'd like to point out that I had to pay for two tickets for Capodimonte and for the buses to Naples, normally included in the 3-day passes (as of this morning)!"
At 3.08pm, Inna replies:
"Hello, if I could have sent an email, I would have already done so, the card is digital, unfortunately there is no way to send an email, if you can't complete the check-in, you can request a refund, don't worry, we will refund the amount paid."
Then, finally, she gives me your email address on which I write to you.
I'll keep these exchanges at your disposal.
I would ask you to proceed with the reimbursement of these 2 cards (on the card used for payment) and to inform me of the progress of the procedure.
Yours faithfully
Walter Grimmer

The Napoli Tours team, Lucas and his colleague were very helpful.
On the other hand, we had problems at the entrance to the San Martino museum because there was no internet connection. In public transport, it was impossible to validate on the machines. We went through with the ticket office staff.

So, I bought it so that I would have less stress.
Activation was good. When using it, I always needed internet to log in, every 5 minutes the system kicked me out. There was no connection in the subway. Museums were not all included, so I accidentally spent the 3 museum credits. Public transport was included, but I couldn't go straight into the subway, I had to report to an employee every time and he let me in (out of pity). The need for improvement is there

Naples is a magical city, neighborhoods and streets that have stood still in time. Of course there is great food and the prices are modest, nothing to say.
With Arte-card we were able to really get around and visit a lot of museums without spending a lot. Neapolitans are unique, very outgoing but big-hearted.
Napoli see you soon.

our tickets bought through you have not been used and on top of that you don't want to refund them; very bad experience/ waste of time in Naples trying to solve the problem and loss of money . I'm not happy at all. I wouldn't recommend this site and I'm wondering if it's not a scam. We've never had a live person to help us.

It worked all perfect. No issues 👍🏽
one (big) thing i didn't like : the activation process is too long.
in my case : write via whatsapp with the team, download the app, register with my personal data and send the registration mail back to the team. For me it's not that big problem, but i think older people will get a problem with that for sure.

Easy to use the artecard and we had a wonderful visit to Pompei. Spent the whole day there and parked our car at the nearby europark which was good value. Pompei was everything we thought it would be and will visit again if we come to this area
