What makes it 77% Kids-Friendly: Under-18s enter free, a child-friendly app and treasure-hunt visits engage ages 6-12, but fragile décor, few hands-on displays and long rooms mean constant adult supervision.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for with kids: Long enough to explore State Apartments, courtyard and a workshop without tiring younger children.
State Apartments & Caruso Museum:
Walk through the Throne Room, Queen’s rooms and the carriage displays in the Caruso Museum.
Tip: Let kids spot marble staircases and ornate details; use the free kids’ storytelling app for fun facts.
Cortile del Belvedere:
Step onto the Belvedere courtyard for views over the Bay of Naples and Vesuvius.
Tip: Visit early in the morning to catch soft light and avoid midday crowds.
Family-friendly game visits:
Join role-playing tours, treasure hunts or mask-making workshops designed for kids.
Tip: Book these free events online weeks in advance; spots fill quickly.
Skip-the-line + audio guide:
Use a combined skip-the-line ticket and audio guide to breeze past queues and learn at your own pace.
Tip: Book online to secure adult tickets at €23.50; kids under 18 enter free.

Absolutely worth visiting. Not much crowd. Also guided tours with access to the terrace with great views at select hours - 10AM, 11 AM, 3 PM and 4 PM for sure - maybe a couple more slots - plan accordingly. Even without that, their free audio guide using the QR code is helpful.

We have been sight seeing for over a week and this is worth the money if you love art and architecture. It is breathtaking and you could spend half a day soaking in all of the rooms. Truly worth the money. They are doing renovations so gardens were not accessible and one of the upstairs major rooms... but don't let that stop you from enjoying this amazing historical site. Note... the theatre ...

It's incredible to see where royalty once lived, though, due to successive changes, adoptions and reconstructions, a lot of the lived-in feeling has been lost. The interiors are sumptuous and you really have an idea of the wealth of its inhabitants. No beds, bathrooms or much of the original furniture is left, so one must imagine what the rooms may have originally looked like before they became s...
In summer, start at 9:00 am to avoid heat and crowds. In winter, plan for afternoon when indoor rooms stay warmer.
