Full description
Full-day private trip from Rome to Positano and Pompeii by private van, with pickup at your accommodation, free time in Positano and a tour led by an archaeologist
This full-day private trip combines the Costiera Amalfitana and the history of Pompeii in a single day, with private transportation from Rome and the freedom to explore each place at your group's pace. The driver picks the group up at their accommodation in central Rome, and the journey south is by private van along the Autostrada del Sole.
The first stop is Positano, the town of colorful houses tumbling down the cliffs to the sea. Here the group has free time to wander its narrow streets, browse the shops or enjoy a drink by the sea.
The van then heads inland to Pompeii, the Roman city buried by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79. Entry to the Parco Archeologico di Pompei is with a timed ticket, and the visit is led by an archaeologist guide who walks you through the stone streets, frescoed houses and public baths while explaining how the inhabitants lived before the eruption.
At the end of the day, the group returns to Rome in the private van and the driver drops everyone off at their accommodation. As this is a private tour, the itinerary can be adapted to your group's needs; the visit usually starts in Positano and continues in Pompeii.
