Leave Rome early in the morning for a full-day journey combining history, culture, and some of the most beautiful scenery in southern Italy.
After pickup from your hotel in central Rome, travel south in a comfortable air-conditioned minivan. Along the way, there will be time for a short stop for breakfast or a coffee before continuing toward Pompeii.
Your first main stop is the extraordinary archaeological site of Pompeii, one of the best-preserved Roman cities in the world. Buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, Pompeii offers a fascinating glimpse into everyday life almost two thousand years ago.
Together with a professional guide, spend approximately two hours walking through its ancient streets and discovering some of the city’s most important sites. See public spaces, baths, shops, meeting places, and the remains of private homes while hearing stories about the daily lives, traditions, and habits of the people who once lived here.
After the visit, the atmosphere changes completely as you continue toward the Amalfi Coast.
The journey brings you to Positano, the colorful seaside village built dramatically into the cliffs. Here you will have free time to walk through the narrow streets, browse local boutiques and ceramic shops, enjoy the waterfront, and choose a restaurant or café for lunch at your leisure.
From Positano, continue through the beautiful landscapes of the Amalfi Coast toward Amalfi, a town with a refined character and a remarkable maritime history.
Once one of Italy’s great Maritime Republics, Amalfi still preserves the elegance and atmosphere of its historic past. Enjoy time to stroll through the center, admire the impressive Cathedral of Sant’Andrea, discover artisan shops and local traditions, or simply enjoy the relaxed rhythm of the town and its Mediterranean setting.
Amalfi is also closely connected to the region’s famous lemons, cultivated on the surrounding terraces and used to produce the traditional Limoncello. Take the opportunity to taste this iconic local specialty and experience one of the flavors most closely associated with the Amalfi Coast.
Throughout the day, there will be opportunities to stop and enjoy the views, take photographs, and experience the changing landscapes between Pompeii and the coast.
At the end of the visit, relax on the journey back to Rome, bringing with you the contrast of ancient Roman history and the unforgettable scenery of the Amalfi Coast.
Please note: The itinerary may vary depending on the season, weather and traffic conditions, local restrictions, and operational requirements. The order of the visits may also be adjusted when necessary to ensure the smoothest possible experience. From November through March, the Positano stop may not be available as part of the itinerary due to seasonal operating conditions; when necessary, the program will be adapted accordingly.
