No kind of check on tickets purchased at the entrance, at the site, no kind of guidebook or useful map to find your way around inside.

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

The experience with Napoli artecard is very good and I fully recommend it. Good communication with the managers of the company and good functioning of the app, always with mobile data of course.

The convenience of having the dematerialized card on your phone is great, but it doesn't work when there's no Internet connection. Which is the case in metro corridors, and it's impossible to take a screenshot. But very interesting for visiting the main museums and getting around without worrying about tickets once you've found the right organization. I recommend

Once the purchase is made, the Card is complicated to unlock. The app is not very intuitive for registration. Despite everything, the people at the tourist office are reactive in the event of a problem. The card works well in museums, but the code is not read by the machines in public transport. As a result, you always have to ask the local ticket inspector to let you through, which he always does willingly. Useful if you're sure you want to visit a few museums.

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. 😂

Great once I got the cards but there was a problem getting them activated (technical at Artecarc!) , I had to email several times and eventually telephone a couple of times, quite stressful on holiday!

I am basically an IT dinosaur and did not find the experience of using the Artecard easy, especially as the signal to my phone when we were in Italy was, at best, problematical. However Headout staff were most helpful when I contacted them.

Cost saving was the best thing. Using the card for travel was confusing, since you couldn't scan anything, but they would usually let you in for free if you mentioned the card. Head out was ok, helpful with setting up the app.

Sotterranei Gotici
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.
