A very nice museum, I have really liked it, descriptions are in Italian and English and tell the Calabrian history from prehistoric times to the conquest by the Roman Republic/Empire, I recommend it.

**Museum Visit Review** I had a very disappointing experience at the museum. The staff was incredibly rude and controlling throughout my visit. Despite the main attraction, the Bronzi di Riace, being inaccessible, they still insisted on selling me a full-price ticket. I would not recommend this place given the poor customer service and lack of access to key exhibits.

A Museum with a very well placed collection. There's much more than their bronze unique statues. A "must see" place in south Italy.

Amazing 😍, I love it so much first of all very kind people work there second a lot of history and stories they have great history. Every piece have it's own description in English.if you want to cover everything you need to stay at least 2h to 3h because there's a lot of pieces well organized and also there's 3d videos illustrate many things.

Learnt a lot about the history of Reggio and my ancestors. Was very interesting. The museum itself is nice and clean and easy to navigate. The Hellenistic tombs seemed to be closed though which is unfortunate.

Good organized collection, easy to follow. Good tip how to spend a rainy afternoon.

There are many pictures already. But this was a great stop for the history of the area going back to the first people to come into Italy! The bronze statues were absolutely incredible!!!

We visited the museum to see mainly the famous Riace Bronzes, although the rest caught our attention as well. The hospitality at the museum could be improved. The museum is located in the center and very close to the sea, so it is advisable to consider a few more hours to visit the city too.

Interesting exhibits which are well curated. They have a route marked out so you always know which room Is next. The Bronzes were very impressive, but it’s strange that there are no information panels about such important items

Well organised on several flors, with clear explanations. Amazing the statues!

Rich collection and very good display, it's a MUST for any history lovers! We spent 3+ hours without realizing, I think that says a lot. The bronzes and the temporary exhibition were the cherry on the top, very memorable experence

Comprehensive well presented history of Greek settlement in southern Italy and the Mediterranean. Great displays of pottery and jewellery. Some, though not all with English description. The Riace bronzes are stunning, but not the only thing worth seeing. Cafe only opens for events and bookshop seemed to be permanently closed. Not many visitors so you can spend as much time as you want

This museum is the only one in all of Italy that was actually built as a museum and has remained that way since it was built. All displays have detailed information about the items. They take you through the very early part of the historical times up to and including the two bronze full body statues that were recently retrieved from the Mediterranean sea. Plan on spending at least three hours if you want to see it all

Fantastic museum with many artifacts from the 6th to 4th centuries bc. Well worth a visit when in Reggio Calabria. Highly recommended.

A marvellous museum with many works from excavations from the numerous areas and towns of Italian Magna Graecia. Enormous amounts of didactic information on the complex archeological history of the area. On a less positive note, at least in late September, the museum is besieged with large Northern European tour groups which makes accessing the museums “crown jewels” the Bronzes of Riace, something of a trial as there is a tedious timed air lock access system which you have to navigate before gaining access to the Holy of Holies.

Five stars for the girl’s beautiful smile at the ticket counter and the museum’s modern interior. However, if you’re not particularly interested in BC history, the museum might feel boring. It mainly features two large bronze statues and numerous amphoras.

Interesting museum on 4 floors of Calabrian antiquities as well as the famous 4BC Riace bronzes

Excellent museum. Aside the obvious appeal of the famous bronzes, the museum is well organized, informative and nicely displayed. The chronological arrangement of the artefacts and the clear explanations and context (also in English) give a fabulous condensed tour of antiquity in Calabria. And the bronzes didn’t dissapoint! Mesmerising.

Paradise on the coast! Reggio Calabria's beachfront is a picturesque slice of heaven. Crystal-clear waters, soft sands, and breathtaking views. Perfect for relaxation and sun-soaked days!

I can't speak on hiking as I only walked the promenade, and hey, it was beautiful. The Athena monument was stunning and I loved the sculptures on the garden side.

Way around the sea, there are no trees no shadow in sunny days. Near is atraffic.

Very lovely walk along the sea, very hot in August but the view is impressive!!!

Truly breathtaking. Hugely popular with families, groups, solos, couples..

Very Very nice place

Very nice place. I had a beautiful experience there. A concert,a nice dinner,some great photos,the sculptures.

Best choices and cone so far in Reggio Calabria. Totally worth the waiting in line. In pic mura+pistachio and benvenuti al sud + limone + pistachio d'mare.

In my humble opinion the best ice cream in Italy, even including Sicily. Visited every day during recent holiday, no other Gelateria in town could offer summer flavours which was good as my daughter only wanted mango. My flavours of choice were pistacchio, ricotta and fig, and bergamotto.

Recommended by locals, there is always a queue outside. After trying their gelato, you understand why this place is so popular. Friendliest staff, even when busy.

This was a ton of fun. The biggest gelato in a giant brioche ever. Tiny spot filed with loads of very authentic flavours like bergamot, pistachio, cassata and more. This is a killer spot so don’t miss it. Please follow @joannasable on instagram for more food and travel fun

Delicious! It’s such a famous place in Reggio and of course you’re always gonna find a line of people waiting. The place its really small and full but the taste is amazing. The employees are not that noticeable, just normal people that try to smile during their shift, giving you exactly what you’re asking for and then moving to the next person. It’s not necessarily something bad, they are trying their best to serve everyone and I guess the space situation it’s frustrating for them as well so no need to blame if they don’t smile or say nice things. The store has a big choice of ice cream with some originals too, but even the simple one are delicious. If you pass by and you have the patience to wait, it’s worth to try it. Didn’t even had time for the picture, was looking so delicious that we forgot the existence of phones.

The creamiest ice cream I’ve ever had. We came back 4 times, the wait is so worth it!

Best Gelato in Calabria. Very professional and extremely delicious. We had to come back witin an hour to get some more before leaving town.

Very, very delicious ice cream and so friendly waiters!

M E R A V I GL I O S A !!!

Beautiful place!

Tastefully decorated

Fantastic interior, Must see in Reggio Calabria

Beautiful and holy place

This is absuely stunning inside.

I end up being in Reggio once every 5/6 years and the beauty of this square (or theatre) leaves me breathless every time. The natural beauty of the straight is already a lot, the statue of Athena adds more magic to the place and reminds you of the incredible history of this corner of the world

Hermoso punto panorámico. (Translated by Google) Beautiful panoramic point.

Great place to sit and just look. The lights in Sicily, and the clouds over Etna, the locals chatting about daily life... You just need a few minutes here to absorb the spirit of the city.

Just nice view.

Nice view point. We were lucky and could witness the start of a bike event.

Great view sunset but the staff and food wasn't good

Faboulous arena with a great view

A lovely place for both residents and tourists alike.
