What to expect
You'll spend most of the day in a comfortable vehicle traversing Italian motorways and coastal roads. The driver manages navigation and highway logistics; your job is watching the scenery unfold. At Pompeii, you'll have time to explore the site independently or hire a licensed guide on arrival (not included). The drive itself is straightforward but long, so come prepared with snacks, water, and entertainment. Moderate fitness helps if you plan to walk Pompeii's uneven ancient streets.
Good to know
One medium suitcase per person. Groups over six with extra luggage require a sprinter or second van (additional cost applies). Infant car seats available on request. Bring your own lunch or budget for roadside stops. Pompeii entrance fees and professional guides paid separately. Wear comfortable shoes.
