Additional Information

The majority of one-day excursions from Rome to Pompeii require 12 or more hours, including 6 to 8 hours of time spent on a constrained bus.

This comprehensive journey via express train offers the peak of ease, luxury, and efficiency. Arrive in Naples within an hour, and then a brief 35-minute coach ride takes us to Pompeii. Here, a knowledgeable local guide will captivate you with a walking tour through this city, ravaged by Mt. Vesuvius’s eruption in 79 A.D.

Wander the ancient stone-paved streets of a city stuck in time, where wonderfully preserved olden bakeries, shops, stalls, homes, public baths, and even brothels still stand! Witness the melancholic plaster casts of the residents of Pompeii, who were permanently captured on that disastrous day by hot ash and volatile gases.

After the guided exploration, you’ll get to sample four wines cultivated in the mineral-rich volcanic soil of Mt. Vesuvius, along with generous servings of antipasti, a main course, and dessert before heading back to Naples for your homeward journey.

  • This is the best value by far Rome to Pompeii full day excursion! No big bus tour with 50 other people

Rome to Pompeii all the way - If you’re looking for a Tour guide company to take you to Pompeii then this is the one. Met at Termini and boarded an amazingly fast high speed train with amazing A/C. Journey to Naples just over an hour. We were picked up at Naples train station and boarded two small coaches which again had A/C. It was August and it was much needed. Ride to Pompeii roughly 20 minutes. Tour guide at Pompeii took us around the site for about 2hrs and led us to the main archeological bits. The lunch at the winery was awesome but not exactly on the slopes of Vesuvius rather in the new town of Pompeii. Selections of wines and a delicious Italian style lunch including pasta. Bought some melonjello at the store. Journey home was as easy as getting there. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

Hot But Enjoyable Pompeii - This day trip from Rome was amazing. We easily met the Italia Tour Agent at the train station and she quickly explained to the group our itinerary and then got us on the bullet train. What a ride at time reaching 291 Km/h. Upon arriving in Naples we again were met by a knowledgable tour guide that took control and led us around. Our only complaint was in the Tripadvisor posting it should have listed the tour as to its activity/physical level within Pompeii. Our two couples comprised of four 78-81 year olds in pretty good physical condition but with the 90 degree heat and uneven stones, this tour became arduous. But the nice lunch and delicious wine tasting afterwards made up for all the sweating.

Great tour of Pompeii - worth it! - Great guide with amazing wine & food to finish the tour! This trip really made our experience in Rome even better than if we were to try to go see Pompeii on our own as everything was ran smoothly and efficiently, would recommend!

Excellent trip well worth it - The whole day was spot on. We were met at the train station and put on the train which was a comfort as there are a lot of different trains and very busy. We were met off the train at the other end by Antonio Who is our guide for the day. Antonio was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Pompeii. Our wine tasting and lunch was well Cooked in a local vineyard. Then Antonio put us back on the train to Rome. Recommend you book perfect day.

Nice tour - Great tour and awesome guide! I wish they put our group seated together on the train, but otherwise was happy with the experience. We had a few unexpected medical situations and the tour guide was very understanding and accommodating, and her empathy was appreciated.

High-speed to history. - Well organized tour. We met the first representative at the train station where she had our tickets and made sure we got on the train all right. We got off the very first stop, and the second representative was there to meet us and take us to the bus that took us to Pompeii. She gave an amazing tour with lots of knowledge and insight into the little details of the history behind everything. We then had a great time at the winery where we were able to enjoy local food and some wines. They can even be shipped home for you. We got back on the bus where our guide made sure we got onto the train, okay and back to Rome. All in all, I recommend this tour.

Pompeii amazing, winery very average - Overall we enjoyed this trip, Pompeii was amazing and a must do. Train ride there was good but return train ride delayed and took 2.5 hrs and to a different station over an hour away from the one we left from. We personally could have spent a lot more time at Pompeii but tour was good and informative. Personally I wouldn't do winery again, wine tasting was very basic and not that informative and food was average and pasta under cooked.
