Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Pompeii - Archaeological Area., Porta Marina Superiore (Via Villa dei Misteri) Piazza Immacolata, Piazza Porta Marina inf., 80045 Pompeii Italy

After the complimentary pick-up, you will enjoy a picturesque 2 hours drive along the Tyrrhenian coast to Pompeii and there, with your private tour guide and skip the line tickets, you will visit the world renowned Pompeii archaeological site. This UNESCO World Heritage site was once a seaside resort and party-town for ancient Romans until tragedy struck one fateful April day in 79 AD when Mount Vesuvius famously erupted, burying the city, seaside and surrounding the whole area in volcanic ash. Pompeii was then lost to the world for over a millennium and a half until its ruins were first discovered in 1599, and then rediscovered 150 years later. Pompeii’s artifacts and remaining frescoes, mosaics, and structures give us an incredible insight into what life was like during the late Republic and early Roman Empire.

Duration: 3 hours

Stop At: Sorrento Food Tours, Piazza Tasso Piazza Tasso Main Square, 80067, Sorrento Italy

After the Pompeii tour, your private driver will take you on a beautiful 1 hour drive along the gulf of Naples all the way to Sorrento, where you'll have free time to stroll around the town and stop for lunch at your own expense. The driver and tour assistant will be happy to suggest you some of the best restaurants in the area.

Sorrento is a charming town, known for its high quality hand craft products (especially limoncello) as well as its spectacular views across the bay of Naples towards the city and further towards Mt. Vesuvius. The architecture is very picturesque with its numerous terracotta colored buildings facing the vertiginous cliffs and the busy narrow streets reviving the atmosphere.

After your visit, the driver will take you to one of our favourite local bars to enjoy a delicious limoncello tasting with local pastries!

Transfer back to Rome and drop off at the hotel.

Duration: 3 hours
