Pompeii is wild. Didn’t realize how big it’d be. Our guide, pretty sure her name was Carla, made sure we didn’t miss the best stuff but let us loose to explore on our own too. The weather was perfect, sunny but not too hot. Some spots get crowded, esp. by the forum, but you find quiet corners. Bring water, they’re strict about no drinks sold inside.

Pompeii is HUGE. Went solo, and honestly got lost like twice but that kinda made it better? Took forever to get through the line at the entrance but after that it was smooth. The guide (think her name was Giulia?) was super chill and gave some fun facts about the brothel (lol). Bring a hat, trust me. Half my pics are just me squinting.

This trip was exactly what my partner and I were hoping for. Chill pace, no one rushing us, just time to wander and take it all in. The mosaics are INSANE! Our guide, Marco, helped us skip the ticket line which was a lifesaver. Would recommend comfy shoes and extra water—those old stones are murder on your feet.

Travel effortlessly with a high-speed train to Naples and seamless AC coach transfers straight to the archaeological site.

Skip the long lines with pre-booked entry tickets and enjoy the freedom to explore the ancient ruins entirely at your own pace.

Ideal for travelers who want a fast, hassle-free way to visit without juggling transport or on-site logistics.

Perfect for independent explorers—no guided tour unless you choose the Spanish-language option.

A smooth, well-planned round trip that gets you back to Rome by evening, with maximum time spent inside the site itself.

I went with my boyfriend and we had the best time. Train was easy, bus was kinda packed but fast. Our guide (shoutout to Paolo!) was friendly and had good tips about where to start. You can’t take pics inside the brothel, which is a bummer, but the frescos are burned into my memory anyway.

Me and my girlfriend did this tour as a break from all the museums in Rome. Best decision!! The ruins are MASSIVE and you get a real sense of what life was like. Our guide was hilarious and kept us entertained on the train ride. Glad we didn’t have to worry about tickets or lines.

Zip out of the city on a high-speed train, switch to seamless coach transfers, and enjoy a stress-free day exploring one of Italy’s most iconic ancient sites entirely on your own terms.

Getting started

Meet your coordinator at the designated spot in Rome and board your fast train to Naples. On arrival, you’ll be guided to an air-conditioned coach for a smooth transfer to the site. Your entry tickets are pre-booked, so you can head straight in without lining up or validating anything on-site.

What to expect

Pompeii archaeological site

A remarkably preserved Roman city known for its streets, homes, and public spaces left intact for centuries.

Features

Wander independently and explore highlights such as forums, villas, bathhouses, and fresco-lined rooms.
