About this tour
This eight-hour private tour strings together three iconic Campania destinations: the glamorous island of Capri, the pastel-draped village of Positano perched on the Amalfi Coast, and the haunting ruins of Pompeii. You'll travel by jetfoil, cable car, and private vehicle with a licensed guide, exploring Capri's upscale piazza and narrow lanes, savouring lunch with views of fishing boats bobbing below Positano's clifftop houses, then walking through Pompeii's preserved villas, theatres, and daily-life relics—bakeries, wine bars, wrestling grounds—frozen in time by Vesuvius.
Highlights
- Jetfoil crossing to Capri's Marina Grande in 40 minutes
- Cable car or cabrio taxi ascent to Capri Town's Piazzetta
- Second jetfoil journey along dramatic Amalfi cliffside
- Positano's colourful fishing fleet and vertical village layout
- Walking tour through Pompeii's genuine villas and theatres
- Ancient bakery with intact millstones and wood-fired ovens
- Licensed guide for full eight hours
What to expect
Your day begins with a boat ride across the Tyrrhenian Sea to Capri, where you'll either explore the Blue Grotto (weather dependent) or head straight by cable car or open-air taxi to the main town. Expect crowds in the Piazzetta but genuine charm in quieter side streets lined with boutiques. After returning to the marina, a second jetfoil carries you south to Positano—give yourself time for a proper lunch overlooking the beach. The drive inland follows the Amalfi road's famous hairpin curves before reaching Pompeii's archaeological site. Your guide will navigate you through streets, homes, and work spaces, explaining how ash and pumice preserved ordinary Roman life. The pace is brisk but manageable.
Good to know
The Blue Grotto entry depends entirely on sea conditions and wind; don't bank on it. Wear comfortable walking shoes for Pompeii's uneven stone streets. Sunscreen and a hat are essential. Infant car seats and prams are available. The tour isn't suitable for those with spinal issues or serious heart conditions.
