It was a lovely day with Lavinia. The tour of Pompeii was easier than I expected. The pace was good and our was wonderful. Very informative , funny and patient., unfortunately, I don't remember his name. The bus driver was excellent, he had a very long day of driving as we were supposed to be back at 7:00 but got back at about 10:00 because of traffic and an accident.

It's amazing to have a taste of the coastal areas of Italy with its rich gastronomy, narrow streets and the marvelous Pompeii with its advanced culture, yet a place like a dream. In addition, having the joyful Heather as the out guide added color and passion to the trip. I feel that I got more than I expected. Fabrizzio our driver is skilled and lovely in character!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely worth it! I've been on many tours, but none compares to the experience I had with our guide, Parnian! She’s truly exceptional, an absolute five-star guide. Her depth of knowledge, from ancient Roman history to the intricacies of Italian cuisine (especially impressive given her Persian background), was both fascinating and enriching. What really stood out was Parnian's warmth and attentiveness. Parnian went above and beyond to make sure everyone in our group felt cared for and comfortable throughout the journey. Even when we faced a slight delay with the shuttle en route to the Amalfi Coast and the winding roads of Positano, she handled it with grace, apologizing sincerely and doing everything she could to smooth things over. Our driver was equally amazing, making the ride enjoyable and safe! If you're short on time but want to experience the wonders of Pompeii and the beauty of the Amalfi Coast, I highly recommend this tour. You won’t regret it!

Tick off 3 of the most beautiful UNESCO World Heritage sites in Italy from your bucket list when you go on this Pompeii, Amalfi Coast, and Positano or Sorrento day trip from Rome. From the start to the end, you’ll be guided by a professional and travel in a comfortable AC vehicle.

A city lost and found in ash

Directly enter the ruins of Pompeii with your priority access tickets. You’ll also get the company of a local guide who'll share stories and the history of this vast archaeological site. Once a thriving and well-functioning city, Pompeii was completely destroyed when the nearby Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD and buried the city under volcanic ash.

You’ll get a chance to witness the carefully preserved ancient villas, theaters, public baths, and even a brothel of this bygone era. Way ahead of its time however, Pompeii’s streets were designed in a modern grid system!

Positano or Sorrento

Ride along the gorgeous coastal roads to the Amalfi Coast. You’ll be astounded by the jaw-dropping beauty of the coastline and villages, perfectly aligned with the seashore.

Continue through the narrow roadways of the mountains and reach the pretty village of Positano. Wander through the streets, appreciating the local artisanal shops and getting an idea of the life and culture there.

At Sorrento, discover hidden pottery shops offering delightful souvenirs. Don’t miss the chance to taste limoncello at a local distillery. Learn the fascinating story behind this golden elixir crafted from local lemons.
