How to start using your Naples Artecard
There is no single boarding point: the Artecard is a regional cultural pass, so your journey can begin where your itinerary begins—downtown Naples, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Caserta, or another participating site. Activate the card according to official instructions, then use it for entries and included transport services.
By Train
If you arrive by train at Napoli Centrale, you are already in a strategic position. From Piazza Garibaldi you can connect quickly to the Metro, Circumvesuviana lines toward Pompeii and Herculaneum, and urban routes leading to Naples’ major museums and historic neighborhoods.
By Car
If you reach Naples by car, park once in a secure facility near a Metro or rail hub and continue by public transport. Historic areas often have restricted traffic zones, limited parking, and unpredictable traffic, while the Artecard experience is far smoother when combined with trains and local transit.
By Bus
Local buses in Naples and regional links in Campania connect many parts of the city and surrounding destinations. For day planning, combine bus segments with Metro and regional rail so you can optimize museum visits and reduce transfer time.
On Foot
Many central attractions—especially in the historic center—are wonderfully walkable. You can pair short walks through lively streets with targeted public transport rides to cover longer distances, creating a balanced day between discovery and comfort.
Why choose Artecard in Naples and Campania

Historic Naples & Underground Treasures
Begin in the historic center, where Greek foundations, Roman traces, medieval churches, and Baroque facades coexist within a few lively streets. Many visitors pair major museums with Naples Underground or catacomb routes to understand how deeply layered this city truly is.
Pompeii, Herculaneum & Vesuvius Legacy
Continue toward the Vesuvian area to explore cities frozen by the eruption of 79 CE. Walking through Pompeii and Herculaneum is not just sightseeing—it feels like stepping into everyday Roman life, from homes and bakeries to theaters and public baths.
Royal Naples, Coast & Campania Icons
Round out your trip with grand residences, refined collections, and coastal views that reveal Naples at its most elegant. Depending on your pace, you can add Caserta or Phlegraean-area sites for a richer regional story.
