Overview

Mobile ticket

Most day trips to Pompei from Rome take 12 or more hours and involve 6 to 8 hours sitting on a cramped bus.

This all-inclusive tour by high-speed train is the utmost in comfort, quality and convenience. Reach Naples in one hour, and from there in only 35 minutes by coach we arrive at Pompeii where your expert local guide will amaze you during a walking tour of this city devastated by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79.

Experience a world frozen in time as you stroll along the cobblestone ancient roads where perfectly conserved ancient bakeries, shops, stalls, residences, public baths and even brothels remain! Take in the tragic plaster casts of the Pompeiians who were immortalized on that devastating day by pyroclastic flow and ash.

Upon conclusion of the guided tour you'll enjoy a tasting of four of the wines produced in the fertile volcanic soil of Mt. Vesuvius followed by an abundance of antipasti, a first course and dessert before returning to Naples for your return trip.

Lots of walking. So informative. You dont walk all of Pompeii but whatever section the guide is assigned to. Carla, our guide, was a wealth of knowlege. Pay attention to your walking due to the stones. So much work has been done and so much more to discover. Lunch at the vineyard was wonderful and relaxing. The food and wines were tasty. Wonderful way to wind down.
Great Experience Start to Finish

This was a wonderful day trip from Rome with an amazing staff to keep it all moving at a good, but not too fast, pace. Our guide leaving Rome helped in navigating Termini, which can be intimidating to those of us not used to large train stations. Our guide in Pompeii was informative, easy to follow, and loved the subject and sharing with others. Lunch and wine tasting were the cherry on top of a great day. Highly recommend.
Fantastic highlight tour and guide.

Paola was a fantastic guide in Pompeii. She was knowledgeable, patient, and fun. The highlight tour of Pompeii was a great day trip from Rome and left us feeling confident and excited to take a solo trip to explore all aspects of Pompeii on our own . The winery lunch and tasting was lovely. Both experiences at the train station were chaotic and frustrating.

Worth the money! High speed train is the only way to travel to Naples, with seamless bus transfer to Pompeii. Our guide was entertaining and knowledgeable and made sure we saw key sites with inside knowledge. After the tour, we enjoyed a wine tasing with individual charcuterie boards and pasta dish. Very solid wine offering with free shipping if you chose to purchase. Highly recommend!

Having the tour operator help navigate the train station and coordinate all the transportation was very helpful though finding seating on the train was hectic. The size of the whole group was about 90 people broken into four smaller groups with one tour guide per smaller group. Our tour guide Paula was very knowledgeable and personable. The lunch stop was generous with the delicious wine. Lunch was individual charcuterie with a pasta course and a small dessert course. Very glad we chose this tour!
Great day at Pompeii and the winery.

Our guides, Monica and Carla, were phenomenal! They were very nice and very knowledgeable. Couldn’t have asked for better. The wine and lunch were also great. They were very accommodating with some dietary constraints. I would definitely recommend!

Booked through Viator we met our tour company Italia Tours at the main station in Rome. Easy to find, nice clear signage. Train was on time and 80 minutes we were in Napoli where we were split into groups and met our local tour guide. Minibus to Pompeii which took no more than 25 minutes. Our tour guide was fabulous and so knowledgeable, we were taken back to the times of Pompeii. It’s a good walk so decent shoes needed for cope with the cobbled streets. Pompeii is incredible and the work being done is remarkable. Once the tour finished about 3 hours we made our way to the wine tasting/lunch. It was a quick minibus drive to the Winery Bosco De Medici. Tasted some delicious wine and had a very tasty lunch. Great service and you have the option to purchase their wine. Minibus back to Napoli to meet our guide who ensured we met our train and returned to Rome. A fabulous tour and well worth the experience.
Well organized and well done.
