What to expect
You'll depart Positano by coach, spending roughly an hour en route to Pompeii while taking in views of the coastline. Once at the site, your guide leads you through winding streets and into reconstructed homes, temples and public spaces. Expect to walk at a steady pace across uneven, sometimes steep terrain for 2–3 hours. The site is expansive; your guide will focus on key structures rather than cover everything. Bring water, sturdy shoes and sun protection. Photography is permitted.
Good to know
Moderate fitness essential; expect frequent hills and cobbled surfaces. Not suitable if pregnant or with serious heart conditions. Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. The site can be crowded; arrive early in your tour window if possible.
