Day Trips from Rome

"It's a long ride both ways, so be prepared to ride for a while. There is a nice break around the halfway point. We were picked up on time with a group of about 12 travelers. Good balance between tour information and giving us time to see and think for ourselves. Paolo, the tour leader at Pompeii, was outstanding. Very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the subject. He did an excellent job on a brutally hot day of showing us a lot in the time we had, while still giving us time in the shade to cool off. "

"Great experience.. everyone was helpful and we all had a great time. special thanks to our driver Johnny who was great and took us safely.. our coordinator Alessandro who was perfect in managing the whole event. and our guide Umberto who was a phenomenal guide with immense knowledge of the history of Pompeii! highly recommend "

Semih was a wonderful guide, and our bus driver was amazing! The tour of the Amalfi coast was beautiful. The audio on the bus was sometimes difficult to hear. A bit more time in Pompeii would have been nice. Also, it would be great to have a washroom on the bus.

I loved this trip! A very easy and fun way to get to Pompei and Vesuvius. We made stops for snacks and lunch (very affordable) too so we didn’t need to bring much. Our guides were cheerful, calm, and organized. I really appreciated the balance of sharing information on the bus and leaving silence for us to relax in.

The tour was absolutely amazing and such good value for money. Our guide, Sonia was incredibly knowledgeable and so friendly and funny and made the whole day so great. I would definitely recommend this experience for anyone who is keen to visit the Amalfi coast and have a guided tour of Pompeii.

"Very punctual, friendly. Rosa is very warm and takes care of all the details. Bruno, the Pompeii guide, is also very attentive and knows very well both the history of Naples and Pompeii itself. It was an excellent and unforgettable trip. Totally recommended. It's all day, you leave at 7:30 am and return at 7:30 pm, but it's well worth the effort to go. "

"Such a fabulous day! Tour guide on the bus Antoinetta and the tour guide in Pompeii were so lovely, so friendly, so enthusiastic. We had a great time definitely worth every penney. We spent 2 hours in Positano and it was just the right amount of time to look around and get lunch and drinks! "

"Very enjoyable tour. Our guide was Ilaria and driver was Francesco. Both were amazing and extremely friendly. At Pompeii, we were guided by Brunella which she shared a lot of knowledge about the history and background of the place. It was a long trip but Ilaria makes it enjoyable as much as possible since as you go to different places, she shares very interesting information about a certain building, bridge, or historical areas. "

Our guide on the bus was amazing, checking on everyone, lots of communication, our guide around Pompeii was funny and full of information he really made the day that but more memorable, the hike up Vesuvius was something we will never forget even though walking up in the heat can be a big deterrent keep going it’s worth it when you’re up there and it is possible in the time given! I do not recommend the pizza place for lunch, the staff were rude and the food was not of good quality in my opinion! It’s was burnt and hard! Also if you can’t stop for souvenirs in Pompeii they do have them in shops up Vesuvius

"We enjoyed this tour very much. We were staying in Rome. We met at the meeting point and took the bus which was very comfortable and cool stopping for a break and driving through the beautiful city of Naples. Pompei was amazing. We will definitely plan to return as one day is not enough for Pompei. We recommend this tour to everyone. "

"We had an amazing time on this trip & the experience was well worth it. Both of our guides were incredibly knowledgeable about Postanio, Pompeii, & the surrounding areas we passed on the trip. We were given lots of restroom breaks & food stops, which was something I worried about beforehand. We gave this experience four stars because the bus we took was very small, cramped, and hot, so the four hour drive to & from was very uncomfortable. "

Absolutely amazing! 5/5 would recommend. Tour guide Clare was outstanding, constantly going above and beyond to suit the needs of the group. Positano is simply gorgeous and the perfect stop off. Our tour guide for Pompeii was also amazing, with his in depth knowledge of the site and comical sense of humour. Don’t let the price of this trip put you off, it is worth every penny.

Excellent package! Sums up everything which needs to be covered in a day. Full Description given about the tour is just a gist. The amount of knowledge we got today from Rob was way beyond to what is said. He is was so good, a very good sense of humor. He was careful and attentive for each traveller. However, the only concern was the time given to spent in Positano was a bit less. Our guide in Pompeii, Elanor, was great as well. Very well spoken and had exact time management skills. Overall it was an experience I would recommend 100%. Worth missing your sleep in the morning for an early tour.

"This trip was so fun and well worth it. It is the easiest way to get in Pompei and the coast while visiting Rome. I would recommend making a reservation from the bus if you’re wanting to eat at a sit down restaurant in Positano and you have a rough estimate if when you will arrive. Eat first and then take the rest of the time to shop or go to the beach. The time goes by fast, but you still get a feel for it and the drive there is beautiful and a little scary. The driver was excellent though and knows how to navigate the roads expertly. Pompei was also surreal to see and our tour guide there was very knowledgeable. Ilaria was pleasant and helpful throughout the trip. It’s a long day and tiring day but you get plenty of time to rest on the van. If you are interested in these destinations, spend the money and do the tour! No regret and definitely my favorite day from my weekend visiting Rome. "

"We had a wonderful and very interesting time with Josh and George. George left us feeling very safe with his consistent driving skills and Josh provided knowledgeable, friendly and personable interaction throughout the whole trip. We found Pompeii interesting and amazing at the scale of the archeological site. Lunch on the beach was extraordinary and Amalfi coast was inspiring. "

Completed this on the 19th of September. The day was long (15 hours) with the amount of traffic but the experience was good. Especially if you only have a day to get down south and see the coast. You only get about 2 hours each in Positano and Pompeii ( guided tour) but I would recommended

"This is a greedy tour as you get to see/do so many things in one day. We enjoyed it a lot! The Pompeii tour is only 2 hours so is a little rush! The recommended restaurant for lunch was not good! Well organized tour though. "

"This tour was the best one we did. Pompeii was so amazing to see in person. Our guide Carlo was very knowledgeable and very nice. Deanna was also great, but we thought she needed a microphone when we were in the van it was hard for the people in the back to hear her. Our driver got us there fast and they were very accommodating. We would do this tour again. Just amazing things to see! "

this was a great trip, well worth the money. out Guide Emmanuel was able to smooth down the 3 hours travel time (one way) providing us with all kind of information and jokes. he was the best indeed. Pompeii is a great place to visit. so is the vesuvius

Amazing experience, it just doesn’t hit you until you actually walk those streets, Pompeii is so powerful and sad. The trek was great but very hot, wear very comfortable shoes as the ground is uneven, I wouldn’t wear sandals. They have sticks to help walk up with, but don’t really Need them. Barbara was our guide and was brilliant, very informative, funny and friendly. The best guide I have ever had. Our driver Antonio was an super driver, getting us easily up those high and tight corners to Vesuvius. Overall recommend this trip highly, so glad we got to do it, despite the burning heat. Get an umbrella for sun block before you go, makes a lot of difference
