Full description

The morning covers Pompeii's excavated streets and plaster-cast victims, preserved by the same 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius that destroyed the city, before the day shifts entirely in character along the coast road's cliffside views and citrus groves toward Sorrento. It's a full ten-hour day balancing ancient history with Mediterranean scenery, asking a lot of the schedule but covering ground that would otherwise take several separate trips.

The near-perfect aesthetic score reflects the coastal driving as much as the ruins themselves.

Good to know

  • expect winding coastal roads that can affect those prone to motion sickness
  • wear comfortable shoes throughout, since both the ruins and Sorrento's streets involve plenty of walking.

Reviews

We loved the day trip. Natascia was attentive and full of useful information, while Enrico made Pompeii especially interesting with stories and details about the site.
