About this tour
Combine your Rome airport arrival with a guided walk through Pompeii's preserved streets, then continue to the Amalfi Coast or Ravello. This six-hour transfer pairs ancient archaeology with coastal scenery in one seamless journey. Travelling by air-conditioned minivan with an English-speaking guide, you'll explore how Vesuvius's ash froze daily Roman life in place—shops, homes, amphitheatres intact—before heading to your Amalfi destination.

What to expect
You'll be collected from Rome airport and driven south towards Pompeii, arriving at the archaeological site for a two-hour walking tour. Your guide points out houses, bakeries, and public spaces—many with graffiti, tools, and artefacts still in situ from 79 AD. After exploring the ruins, you'll head to the Amalfi Coast, passing through dramatic coastal terrain and cliffside villages. The pace is steady; there's time to absorb the ruins but no lengthy stops. Expect moderate walking on uneven ancient stone and some uphill sections.
