About this tour
Nine-hour private driver service covering two UNESCO sites in Campania. Your Mercedes chauffeur deposits you at Pompeii's archaeological park for self-guided exploration of the Roman ruins, then continues to Sorrento for seaside lunch before a wander through Positano's clifftop lanes. You set the pace and dwell where you choose—the driver waits with the vehicle throughout.
Highlights
- Pompeii's preserved streets and villas at your own speed
- Sorrento harbour lunch with Tyrrhenian views
- Positano's pastel-stacked architecture and coastal paths
- Air-conditioned Mercedes transport between stops
- Professional anglophone driver, no rigid itinerary
- Flexible timing—skip ahead or linger as you prefer
What to expect
Your driver collects you from port and navigates to Pompeii, where you explore the 2,000-year-old city independently—allow 3–4 hours to cover major buildings, the forum and House of the Faun. Uneven volcanic stone and steps are unavoidable. You'll rejoin your driver mid-afternoon for the coastal drive to Sorrento, where you have time for lunch at a harborside restaurant. The final leg winds through dramatic switchbacks to Positano; expect 30–45 minutes of gentle strolling past boutiques, cafés and viewpoints before returning to your ship.
Good to know
Entry tickets to Pompeii and any gratuities are separate costs. Wear sturdy trainers and bring sun protection—little shade exists at the ruins. The driver speaks English but offers no historical commentary; download a Pompeii app beforehand if you want archaeological context.
