In addition, if you choose Naples Pass valid for the entire Campania region ( 3, 5 or 7 days ), you can purchase a round-trip for the Naples- Pompeii route ( EAV service or Treni Italia ) essential for visiting the excavations! - or a round-trip for the Naples-Caserta route (Trenitalia service). 

Finally, whichever pass you choose, you can buy a round-trip ticket from Herculaneum to visit Vesuvius (+ park ticket).

Be aware that the validity of public transportation is by days: so if you activate it at 3:00 p.m. it will trigger a full day

Once you purchase the transport option that suits you better, you can activate your e-ticket for public transport (QR code) directly fromthe My Pass section of the Naples Pass App.

The e-ticket must be kept until the end of the journey. Travelers may incur penalties if they do not have the ticket.

The e-ticket is activated manually, in the My Pass Section of Naples Pass Aapp, by clicking on the "activate" button. We recommend activating the e-ticket near the turnstile: once activated you only have one hour to use it. The e-ticket can only be activated if there is an internet connection.

Important: 
- Using the ticket multiple times, the QR code may need to be updated. Please keep in mind that in some underground stations (e.g. metro line 1 - Toledo station) the internet connection is poor. We, therefore, recommend updating your ticket before going underground and approaching the turnstile.

- If you experience difficulties validating your ticket at the turnstile, we recommend asking for assistance from ANM or EAV staff, who are usually present in all stations.

- Beware the multi-day public transportation pass works by days and not by hours like the museum qrcode. Example: public transportation if active at 11:59 p.m. is worth a full day.
