From Naples: Pompeii & Amalfi Coast Full-Day Trip with Lunch

Enjoy a day on Italy’s scenic Amalfi Coast and explore the archeological ruins of the ancient Roman town of Pompeii on a full-day excursion from Naples by bus. Be picked up at your central Naples hotel or outside your cruise ship at the Port of Naples. Once there, drive along the Sorrento coast and stop for scenic photos. Continuing along the Amalfi coast, marveling at the spectacular scenery. Stop at a lookout over Positano and its bay for stunning views. Continue along the coast, stopping for lunch at a delicious restaurant. After lunch, head to Amalfi, where you’ll have plenty of time to explore this picturesque town. Next, make your way to the archeological site of Pompeii. Save time with skip-the-line tickets to Pompeii, which was a thriving Roman town until it was buried under ash after Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. Enjoy a guided walking tour along the old Roman streets and see the houses, shops, bars, and even a brothel among the excavated ruins. After visiting Pompeii, return to your starting point in Naples. The itinerary within the Pompeii excavations may vary from day to day depending on the opening of certain offices and the influx of visitors. The visit guarantees the exploration of one building from each category: 1 Temple, 1 Market, 1 ancient shop, 1 Villa, 1 Thermal bath, 1 Theater, and the Forum. The selection of visited buildings is determined each time by the guide based on the number of visitors, waiting times, and their opening hours. The tour includes a visit to a Cameo factory. Cameos are typical jewels from the Roman era, discovered during the excavations of Herculaneum and Pompeii in 1748. At the factory, you can observe a craftsman at work. Cameos are jewels crafted from shells and gemstones, and they are hand-carved by the artisan. Visiting the factory will allow you to use the restrooms for free before entering the excavations. Therefore, stopping at the Cameo factory is not only informative but also essential in terms of managing the visit to the Pompeii excavations. The tour in the chosen language is considered confirmed with a minimum of 6 participants. If the minimum number is not reached, there will be the option to choose either an audio-guided tour in the selected language or a guided tour in English.
