What it means for visitors
- All events are on Sundays, when the sites are open: Baia closes on Mondays, Cumae on Tuesdays.
- Baia Castle opens 9:00–18:30, last entry 17:30: the 16:00 workshop on the 22nd fits well with a visit to the museum.
- The Circuito flegreo is valid for 3 consecutive days: it pays off for several sites on the same weekend, not for coming back at the end of the month.
Tip: 15 November is the busiest Sunday. Get to the Baths of Baia early for the 11:00 Terre Ardenti tour and buy your ticket online to skip the queue for the 30-minute slots.
