Set off on a full-day trip from Rome on an air-conditioned coach, discover the eerie ruins of Pompeii, and revel in a panoramic tour of Naples, one of the oldest uninterruptedly populated cities in the world.
Pompeii & Naples Day Trip
At the indicated time, we'll set off from the Italian capital and cross Rome’s fertile landscape and the area of the castles called Castelli Romani. Montecassino is one of the little towns of the region, where the Battle of Monte Cassino took place during World War II.
After a 3-hour drive, we'll arrive in the capital of Campania and embark on a panoramic tour of Naples. From the bus, we'll pass by iconic landmarks including the Vomero and Posillipo districts, Egg Castle, the Royal Palace, and Via Marina.
It'll then be time to take a 2-hour long historical tour through the ruins of Pompeii. We'll explore this city, which was buried under tons of volcanic ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, killing 2,000 inhabitants. The town was discovered 1,700 years later and now is a remarkably well-preserved archaeological site where you’ll get a real sense of how life was in an ancient Roman colony.
After the tour of Pompeii, we'll return to the capital of Italy. Arrival in Rome is scheduled 12 hours after pickup. As a rule, we'll say goodbye in Piazza della Repubblica.

Hotel Pickup
When making your reservation, you can opt for a tour with pickup. If you do so, you'll be picked up from the main hotels in the centre of Rome that have a 24-hour reception. If you're staying in an apartment or bed and breakfast, you should head straight to the meet point: in front of the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martri, near the metro stops Piazza della Repubblica and Termini.
You can also reserve the tour without pickup. If you choose this option, we'll pick you up directly from in front of the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martri.
