In accordance with the state of the epidemiological situation, the museum offers regular touch visits for those visitors with impaired vision or blindness. Visits are guided by specialised staff.
See the section Accessible Projects for information.

During the visits by specialised staff, the museum offers a book for touch-exploration reproducing the mosaic of the Ratto di Proserpina. The book was produced by the Museo statale Tattile Omero di Ancona, in partnership with Zètema Progetto Cultura.
