About this tour
Travel back to ancient Rome with a private 3–4 hour excursion to Paestum's three grand temples—sanctuaries to Hera, Neptune and Athena that still command the Campanian plains. Your driver collects you from airport, port, station or hotel, whisks you through 2 hours of wandering the ruins, then returns you to your original point. Climate-controlled Mercedes or minivan, cold water and onboard WiFi included.
Highlights
- Three monumental Greek temples, remarkably preserved, 2,500 years old
- Private Mercedes or minivan with air conditioning and WiFi
- Hotel, airport, port or station pickup and drop-off
- English-speaking driver with local knowledge
- Luggage assistance at both ends
What to expect
After pickup, you'll settle into a comfortable vehicle for the drive to Paestum. Once there, you'll have roughly 2 hours to wander the archaeological site at your own pace—no guided commentary, just you, the temples and the landscape. The three sanctuaries rise from open ground with striking clarity. Allow time to circle them, peer at their columns up close, and absorb the scale. Your driver waits for collection, then the return journey mirrors the outbound trip. This is self-guided exploration, not a curated tour.
Good to know
Paestum entry tickets (€15) and any food or tastings are separate costs. Wear sturdy shoes for uneven stone ground. The site has limited shade—bring sun protection. Prams and child seats available. Confirm your pickup time and location directly with the operator before travel.
