Overview

Check off two UNESCO-listed wonders on this full-day tour from Rome: the mighty ruins of Pompeii and the idyllic Amalfi Coast. First, you’ll discover the relics of one of ancient Rome’s most important cities as you explore the remarkably preserved streets of Pompeii. Then, soak up the scenery along the Amalfi Coast and stop for lunch (at your own expense) in the picturesque village of Positano. This small-group tour is limited to 18 guests to ensure a personalized and intimate experience.

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Rome, Rome, Lazio

Meet your tour leader and small group in central Rome and hop aboard a private, air-conditioned minibus—the most comfortable way to navigate the jaw-dropping drive that awaits us.

Duration: 3 hours 30 minutes

Stop At: Pompeii Archaeological Park, Porta Marina (via Villa dei Misteri), 80045 Pompeii Italy

Wander the fully preserved streets of Pompeii on a guided tour. This thriving port town was frozen in time when it was engulfed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. View the death casts of people caught in the eruption and peek into shops, temples, public baths, and maybe even a brothel (if suitable for the group).

Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes

Stop At: Amalfi Coast, Amalfi Coast, Province of Salerno, Campania

After Pompeii, it’s back onto the minibus for one of the most unforgettable drives of your life down the hairpin turns and panoramic vistas of the Amalfi coast. It won’t take long for you to see why this is considered Italy’s most scenic drive (although certainly not the easiest to navigate—you’ll be glad you have a professional driver!).

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Positano, Positano, Amalfi Coast, Province of Salerno, Campania

Following in the footsteps of literary greats like Shelley, Goethe and Steinbeck, you’ll be free to explore this little town on foot, sampling its incredible seafood, browsing the fashionable boutiques, or ordering bespoke, handmade sandals.

Duration: 2 hours 15 minutes

Stop At: Rome, Rome, Lazio

After a full day of exploring two of southern Italy’s greatest gems, you’ll head back onto the bus for a comfortable journey back to Rome.

Duration: 3 hours 30 minutes

The Amalie coast was beautiful. Don't waste time at the restaurants. Grab something to go so you can explore the town.

The bus time was long it was worth it. The bus comfortable and our guide very good. The destinations of Positano and Pompeii are outstanding and make the trip a must do.

We are a family of 4 with an 11 and 14 year old. We were a little worried it was going to be a little too much of a trek, but it was such a smooth easy day and we were SO glad we maximized our stay in Italy and ventured outside of Rome to see Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. The pick up spot and van were super easy, and comfortable, they stop to allow you to get a snack and use the bathroom. The solo time in the town was wonderful, Pompeii was incredible and we had the best tour guide ever. I highly recommend this trip. The only thing I wish we would have had more time to browse the shops and restaurants next to Pompeii but understood we had to get back to Rome. Lovely day worth every minute and penny.

The tour was extremely convenient and well thought out. Our tour guides were very personable and knowledgeable as well. It was amazing to see Pompeii and to spend a few hours in the breathtaking Positano as well. One of the best days we spent on our trip to Italy!
