What to expect
You'll download the audio package before arrival, then move through each location independently. At archaeological sites, GPS may drift, so cross-reference the physical maps handed out at entry. The audio tracks contextualise what you're seeing in real time, moving beyond standard tourist facts into art-historical reasoning. The Naples content devotes substantial time to the Sansevero Chapel's famous sculpture and its conservation mystery. Expect to spend 2–3 hours per major site; pacing is entirely yours. Children in prams are welcome, and infants sit with an adult.
Good to know
Download all content on WiFi before visiting; archaeological zones have unreliable signal. Bring the printed maps from ticket offices alongside your phone for cross-checking location. GPS accuracy is limited outdoors in these areas. WhatsApp is your support channel if content fails to load or you need guidance.
