About this tour
Get from Naples to Amalfi in a private Mercedes, with a guided stop at Pompeii's ruins en route. This four-hour journey combines transport efficiency with archaeology—you'll explore the buried Roman city for roughly two hours before continuing to the coast. Your driver handles navigation and logistics, leaving you free to soak in the Bay of Naples scenery and wander Pompeii's streets at your own pace.
Highlights

What to expect
You'll be collected from your Naples hotel or meeting point and driven south towards Amalfi. About halfway, your driver will deposit you at Pompeii—bring comfortable shoes and a hat, as the site is exposed. You've got roughly two hours to wander the excavations; many visitors focus on the amphitheatre, bakeries, and House of the Faun rather than trying to see everything. Rejoin your driver afterwards and continue down the winding coast road, arriving at your Amalfi-area destination in the late afternoon. The entire journey is point-to-point; there's no guided commentary unless you arrange a local archaeologist separately.
Good to know
Pompeii entrance fees and a guide aren't included—book these in advance if desired. Bring water and snacks; cafés at the site are pricey. The final leg involves hairpin turns, so settle in for scenic but winding driving. Infant seats must be requested when booking.
