Full description

Discover Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast on a day tour from Rome. Enjoy skip-the-line entry to Pompeii with a professional guide who has dedicated their life to studying the ancient city and discover beautiful Positano, Amalfi town, or Sorrento perched along the seaside of the Amalfi Coast.

Meet your tour leader in Rome and hop aboard your minibus to Pompeii. Skip the long entry lines and hear stories of ancient Pompeii from your guide as you tour the shops, temples, public baths, and homes that made up the thriving city.

Learn about the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and see the famous plaster death casts of the unfortunate people caught in the eruption and, if age-appropriate for the group, an ancient brothel. Then, enjoy a drive with panoramic views of the Amalfi Coast and stop in Positano, Amalfi town, or Sorrento. After an introduction from your guide, enjoy a few hours of free time before your journey back to Rome.

This was a great time! The tour guide was so knowledgeable and helpful! He really took the time to get to know what everyone was looking for from their trip. He gave us all lots of recommendations for the rest of our trip too. The coast was gorgeous.

The day trip from Rome to Pompei and Sorrento was excellent! It was well planned from the moment we met our guide to the moment we said good-bye at the end of the day. The two guides (one who accompanied us and one who provided the tour at Pompei) were nice, knowledgeable and helpful. The van was extremely comfortable, with plenty of room.

Federico was an excellent tour guide! Extremely knowledgeable in the history of Italy. We were convinced he must be a History professor. He gave facts and told stories throughout all the areas we traveled, giving us an understanding of the people and different cultures (food, languages, battles, etc) that came together to form what is present day Italy. Our guide in Pompeii, Ilaria, was excellent as well. As an archaeologist who worked at the site, she was able to give us so many details in a day of the life of a Pompeiian. We felt like we were transported back in time. We only wish it could have been a little longer. Sorrento was beautiful as well. Federico gave excellent dining references. The pizza at Ristorante Pizzeria Tasso did not disappoint! Again, 2 hours was not enough time to dine & explore, but necessary to make the 3.5-4 hour drive back to Rome. Roberto did a great job of getting us back and forth safely. Highly recommend Federico and TakeWalks tour. Amazing experience!
