Reviews Capodimonte Museum
“The best part of the gallery was the Carta Blanca exhibition- and the most interesting. We could not understand why the 2 floor had beautiful air conditioning but the 1 floor was not! Very strange. The cafe was nice as was the bookshop and the staff was very helpful.”
“L'ingresso al museo è avvenuto celermente senza alcun contrattempo. La visita è stata molto interessante anche grazie al supporto della audioguida, compresa nell'acquisto del biglietto. In futuro ricorrerò a questo sistema per altre visite. Cordialmente. Giampaolo Porcu”
“Not disappointed in anyway. From the beginning to the end a really worth while experience.”
