He gave us some great information as we left Rome and also whilst on our trip that you’d be unlikely to hear anywhere else. The trip itself was fantastic. A lot packed into the day but well worth it.

Our guide was Jonathan and he offered lots of information on the way there and back and was helpful and informative and funny.

Pompeii Tour & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

10.Pompeii Tour & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,932 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $240

Spend a long but rewarding day traveling from Rome to Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. An archaeologist guide leads the ruins tour, while an English-speaking tour leader handles the day. From April through October, you usually visit Positano. In winter, the route shifts to Sorrento.

“The bus ride was comfortable. Vito was an awesome guide and very graceful with his knowledge of Pompeii. The Amalfi part was kind of lacklaster. If someone were to go swimming or even just get down to the beach then they would miss the bus. There were no directions to get to the beach. I think it would've been helpful if directions were included to the beach on the the pamphlet with the restaurant recommendations.”
