Departing from central Rome to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Pompeii, a once-bustling port city buried for hundreds of years under a blanket of volcanic ash. An expert local guide will lead you through this fascinating archaeological site. With homes and places of work all frozen in time, just as they were when Mt. Vesuvius erupted and annihilated the city, it’s an incredible window into ordinary Italian life centuries ago. Please note that Pompeii is not visited if you select the Positano & Sorrento Option !

Not what we were expecting

Great opportunity to see lots of places, but not really time efficient. Tour ended up being 3.5hrs longer than expected, but not because of sight-seeing, but because that's all bus time. Only really got 45 minutes free time in Sorrento, and time at Pompeii and Limoncello was about 20 minutes shorter than expected. Be prepared for a long day on a bus, because that's that this tour really is, just a bus ride.
Best tour ever

The tour was too crowded. Several people were separated from their traveling companions on the bus. I had to sit on the very last row and had very little view out the windows. It was just too big of a group to be comfortable. Pompeii was very interesting, but it was difficult to keep up with the tour guide and understand what she was saying. The guide on the bus had a lot of information, but she talked very fast and I found her hard to understand. The Amalfi coast was lovely, but the bus didn’t stop to let us take pictures and it was impossible to take pictures from the bus and some people in the back of the bus and on the wrong side of the bus couldn’t really see the views. Sorrento was lovely, but many of the shops were closed until time to leave.
Laura and Francisco were the perfect tandem

Laura and Francisco were the perfect team during the tour. Laura was outstanding. She’s extremely precise with her timing, always punctual, and communicates clearly and effectively about the tour details and historical information. Although I initially thought the trip would be long and tedious, Laura’s natural charisma kept the momentum lively and engaging throughout. Meanwhile, Francisco drove carefully and professionally, ensuring a smooth and safe journey. This tour is highly recommended—not only for the breathtaking views of Rome, but also for learning a great deal about the city's rich history and culture. I had a fun experience and learned a lot about Rome.
A very enjoyable day with...

Pompeii is grander and Sorrento is magnificent. Jonathan was funny, professional and efficient. Could do without the long pee breaks and lemon cello tasting. That would give us one more hour in Sorrento!
Enjoyable day trip!

Excellent experience with Johnathan, he was engaging and shared just the right amount of history and cultural background at each stop. The only improvement to suggest is to give some additional time (at least 2 hours) in Sorrento.
Great day!
