Itinerary
Your private tour begins with hotel pickup
Meet your driver right outside your Rome accommodation in a private, climate-controlled vehicle to begin the drive south toward Campania.
Drive down the Highway of the Sun
Relax as you travel south along the Autostrada del Sole, passing countryside landscapes, lemon groves, and historic hilltop towns on your way to Pompeii.
Arrive at ancient Pompeii
Bypass the long general admissions lines with timed entry tickets. Meet your private archaeologist guide and enter the world-famous UNESCO World Heritage site, buried by Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D.
Explore preserved Roman streets and artifacts
Walk along original stone roads to examine ancient theaters, thermal baths, central forums, and vibrant wall paintings preserved for centuries beneath volcanic ash. Listen to your guide as they pinpoint the details of the civilization left behind.
Drive along the Bay of Naples
After your private tour of Pompeii, rejoin your private driver for a scenic drive further south along winding coastal roads offering views across the Gulf of Naples.

Sasha was fantastic. The amount of energy, humor, and knowledge is second to none. His family is from the area and he has a family history linked to Pompeii. I love when tour guides are passionate about the subjects you’re about to see. He also made it a point to ask us what parts we’d like to see more of on the Pompeii tour, which is important with kids. Sasha, thank you for being you and sharing a little part of your many experiences…next time we race though. I’m good for 40 feet. Happy New Year and many blessings…Ian

Seeing Pompeii’s ash-covered ruins and then Sorrento’s blue sea in one day was unforgettable. The contrast was striking and beautiful.
