About this experience

From Rome: Pompeii Guided Tour and Amalfi Coast Day Trip This full-day tour from Rome combines two of Italy's most spectacular destinations in one carefully planned excursion. You'll explore the remarkably preserved ruins of Pompeii with skip-the-line access and a local guide, then travel along the UNESCO-listed Amalfi Coast to visit either Positano or Sorrento. The 12-13 hour tour includes comfortable coach transfers, giving you a stress-free way to experience these historic and scenic highlights south of Rome. Your day begins with departure from central Rome, followed by a scenic stop at Cassino before reaching Pompeii. After your guided archaeological tour, you'll drive along the dramatic coastal roads to enjoy free time in one of the coast's famous towns. The tour returns to Piazza del Popolo in Rome by evening, making it perfect for those wanting to maximise their time exploring Italy's treasures.
