Wonderful museum, it had been a long time since I was there. Went on November 1, a holiday, but the museum was open. Green Pass or equivalent required to enter; they need to refill hand sanitizer stations, however, as several I tried were empty. All three floors were open (did not check if the basement level was open). Maybe a total of 20 people in the entire museum. Absolutely packed with wonderful antiquities, with description in both Italian and English. Some major pieces you instantly recognize from art or history books, from the Boxer to the Wounded Niobe to the frescoes from Livia's Gardens, and some amazing mosaics.

A very interesting museum with ancient frescoes, mosaics, sculptures, and the largest public bath in the Roman Empire. Well worth a visit- the 4 museum pass is the best deal. Only $2-4 Euros more than an individual ticket and it gets you into to Massimo twice, Altemps and the baths once (and one more place we didn't go).

If you want to have a day-long crash course in Roman art, this is the place for you. It is an amazing collection of statues, frescoes, decorative object that give a 360-degrees picture of Roman art and culture. Do take your time, don’t just run through the museum!

Another of the amazing historical museums in Rome. The highlights are definitelly beautiful 2,000-year-old wall paintings from ancient houses, including paintings from the house of Livia, the wife of Emperor Augustus. But you will also see lots of Greek and Roman statues, mosaics and other ancient objects. It is also worth to visit the nearby Diocletian's Baths (same ticket), where you can see, among other things, the oldest written documents from Rome. And the buildings of the largest Roman baths, are impressive as well.

At the ticket counter we were told that we should have bought the tickets online. It felt like as they did us a favour, selling us a ticket at the ticket counter. Museum is worth a visit but two floors were closed. Ticket seemed to be valid for two other locations so it's not a bad deal.
