Amazing day with Aurelio and Sonia!

Aurelio A. was a great communicator and guide. He led us straight to the capable guide at Pompei. It was bigger than I thought and very interesting.<br /><br />Sorrento was on your own to shop and/or eat. I loved the store Mirella run by a nice family for lemon themed souvenirs. Also the lemon sorbet inside a real lemon was great! I got mine at St. Antonio bar. There is a kiosk shaped restaurant at the start of the town that looked good. Best view restaurant was terraza delle sirena

This was the perfect tour to see the Amalfi coast & Pompeii just the right blend of history, sightseeing, & both Bravoa nice lunch in a scenic spot & some shopping in Sorrento. If you are wanting to see Pompeii & the Amalfi coast as a tour from Rome, this is ideal! Our guide Aurelio was friendly, helpful & patient, while being informative & knowledgeable. Its a full day (12 hrs) but the best way to see all this as a day trip visit while staying in Rome. Bravo, amici!

FAQs

Can I bring a bag with me into Pompeii?
Small bags and purses are allowed inside Pompeii.
Is this tour wheelchair accessible?
No. Unfortunately, due to site restrictions we cannot accommodate wheelchairs on this tour. Guests should be prepared for a moderate level of physical activity, including standing for extended periods and climbing stairs, which may not be suitable for travelers with certain health conditions or mobility limitations.
Is Pompeii accessible to people in wheelchairs?
The streets of Pompeii have never been repaved or smoothed over so much of the city is nearly impossible to navigate for those with mobility impairments. If you use a wheelchair there is a special route for you, so please contact our customer service department for details.
What if the weather is bad (rain, snow, hail, etc.) on the day of my tour?
Our tours run rain or shine so please dress for the elements. We also ask you to please remember hats and sunscreen if you are taking this tour in the summer as it might be very hot.
How long is the tour?
Roughly 13 hours, with an early morning departure from Rome and a return in time for dinner.
Can I use this tour as a transfer to the Amalfi Coast?
Unfortunately our transport vans do not have enough space to accommodate luggage so it's not possible to use this tour as a transfer to towns on the Amalfi Coast from Rome.
Do I need to bring my ID for my Pompeii tour?
Yes! The full names of all participants must be provided at the time of booking and match the names on their ID/passport. Name changes are not permitted. All guests (including children) must bring a government-issued ID/passport on the day of their tour. Failure to bring an ID may result in security staff denying entrance to the monument.
Which town on the Amalfi Coast will I visit?
Most of the year, you'll visit Positano. In the low season (November through late March), most of the businesses in Positano town close, making the town rather uneventful to visit. During this time, we will visit Sorrento instead, where you'll have plenty of options for lunch and shopping.
Is lunch included?
No. Your guide will give you a few great recommendations for lunch spots and give you plenty of time, but where and what you eat is up to you.
Is there free time in Positano or Sorrento?
Absolutely. You’ll enjoy up to two hours to wander, eat, shop, or simply soak in the scenery.
