What to expect
Your driver collects you early from your Rome hotel and heads south towards the Amalfi Coast or Pompeii, depending on your choice. The journey involves coastal roads with dramatic scenery; your driver knows the traffic patterns and can suggest the best photo stops. In Positano or Sorrento, you're free to explore at your own pace—lunch and activities are yours to arrange. If you opt for Pompeii, allow several hours to walk the archaeological site. The return to Rome takes the afternoon and evening.
Good to know
Meals, drinks, and entrance fees (especially Pompeii at €150 for 2 hours) are not included. Folding wheelchairs are accommodated, though certain areas have limited access. Infants can travel in provided seats or prams. Bring water and sun protection for coastal stops.
