Pompeii and Naples Day trip from Rome
Description
Leave the chaos of Rome behind on a full-day trip to Pompeii and Naples. Travel swiftly by high-speed train from Roma Termini to Naples, or choose a private car with 7:00 AM hotel pick-up for door-to-door comfort. If you take the train, you’ll arrive in just over an hour and meet your local driver for a smooth transfer to Pompeii; by car, the drive to Pompeii takes about 2.5–3 hours. In Pompeii, walk ancient streets halted by the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius. Explore on your own or add a licensed private guide to deepen the story of villas, temples, frescoes, and street-food counters preserved for nearly two millennia. After Pompeii, continue to Naples for free time to wander the historic center, stroll the waterfront, browse markets, and taste true Neapolitan pizza. Return to Rome in the evening—by fast train or private vehicle—having experienced archaeology, city life, and the flavor of Southern Italy, with logistics planned for you.

Our guide in Pompeia was brilliant! The driver made the Naples visit fantastic. We saw soo much in only one day. We definitely couldn't make it by ourselves!
Thank you so much! We’re delighted to hear that our people made your day so special. We hope to welcome you again in Italy soon!
This team made it so easy for our family. The communication was great from the start and they really customized the day for what we wanted to see. Our guide in Pompeii was incredible. Her English was perfect we learned way more than if we just walked around. The driver was also a total pro. Super smooth ride and he actually took us to some cool spots in Naples. And the pizza he recommended? Seriously yummy. Best tour we’ve had so far in Rome!
Thank you so much for your review! It’s wonderful to know it’s been one of the best experiences of your time in Rome: hope to see you again soon!
