About this tour
An eight-hour loop from Naples covering three essential southern Italian destinations. Start with views across Positano's vertical village from a scenic overlook, then explore Sorrento's laneways at your own pace. The day peaks at Pompeii, where an archaeologist unpacks two millennia of Roman domestic life across the buried streets. Private vehicle and skip-the-line entry included; you handle the schedule within Sorrento's free hours.

- Self-guided wander through Sorrento's medieval centre
- Pompeii entrance tickets and wireless headset provided
- Archaeologist-led excavation tour, 1.5–2 hours
- Private driver for full eight-hour duration

What to expect
You'll leave Naples in a private vehicle and head south. The first stop is a terrace above Positano—enough time for photographs and a coffee, then onwards to Sorrento. Here you're free to navigate its narrow streets, shop, eat, and soak in the coastal town rhythm for as long as you like before the driver collects you for the final leg. At Pompeii, your guide meets you at the gate. With headset audio, you'll walk the site's main thoroughfares and residential quarters, stopping at key houses and public spaces while the archaeologist contextualises daily Roman routines, trade, and the eruption itself. The return drive to Naples winds down the day.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes—Pompeii involves uneven terrain and minimal shade. The driver is English-speaking but the Pompeii guide leads the archaeological section. Food and drinks are not included; budget for meals in Sorrento or bring supplies. Public transport links are available if you prefer independent travel from Naples.
