Pompei Today
The ruins of Pompeii are situated near the modern town of Pompei, just south of Naples.
There are several entrances to the ruins, that can easily be reached on foot from the modern city.
From Naples Pompeii can be visited through FS trains or through the so-called Circumvesuviana, which runs directly to the excavations.
From Rome it is best to take a train to Naples and then the Circumvesuviana, which makes for a very pleasant day trip.
There are several car parks near the archeological site.
