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
  • Due to the route covered and/or the means of transportation used, it is not possible to participate in this tour using a wheelchair, scooter, or other aid. Please contact us to inquire about customized tour options for guests with mobility challenges

Wonderful day in Pompeii! - What a fantastic tour..starting off with a very comfortable train ride to Naples. Guide met us at the station and we proceeded to the ruins of Pompeii.. our guide was an archaeologist so extremely knowledgeable..We came away with the feeling of every day life there.

Amazing Pompeii and Wine Tasting experience - Our guide was Antonio! He was super funny, kind, and knowledgeable! It was great to have him as our guide to provide us information and history on the city of Pompeii. It was my first time going to Pompeii with my partner and it was definitely worth it! We traveled from Rome Italy and made our visit to Pompeii a day trip with this tour. We left at 8am, took a 1.5 hour fast-speed train to Naples, then took a 15 minute air conditioned van ride to Pompeii. We spent around 2 hours exploring the city and the park. Then, we went for around 2 hours to the most beautiful winery we have ever seen with the BEST food (super accommodating for people with dietary restrictions!) and a tasting (with refills) of five different wines! We had a charcuterie board for an appetizer with bread and oils and cheeses, then pasta with tomato sauce and basil, then a fruit shortcake for dessert. My partner and I both said that this is easily the best meal we have ever had in our entire lives hands down, and my partner can be quite picky! We arrived back in rome around 5pm. Overall, the experience was incredible and I would definitely recommend this tour just because it gave us plenty of time and it never once felt rushed, and this tour in particular comes with an amazing wine tasting and lunch with round trip transportation to Rome included. It was overall a little pricey for my partner and I but it was 100% worth it.

Carefree way to see Pompeii - It was great to not have to worry about how to get from Rome to Pompeii! They took care of all the transportation, then had an excellent tour with Chiara! We then had a great lunch at the winery and met new friends while there. Overall a great experience

Going back to Roman times - Very well organized and executed. Finding the group at Roma Termini station was easy, as was hopping the train to Pompei. Felicia was our guide and, as an art restorer and clear Pompei lover, really brought to life how Romans lived. Examples included her describing a Roman "fast-food" stall, a bakery, the homes of people of different socioeconomic backgrounds, etc. She was really able to bring us into ancient Rome. Her caring was also clear when he came upon a lost, crying child - she immediately reassured the child and we stayed with the child till her father came back... Italiatours also was fantastic in allowing my daughter and I to take a later train back (so we could spend some time in Napoli). The only part that was not awesome (it was great but not awesome) was the lunch.

We highly recommend this tour!! From start to finish- awesome!! - This tour was awesome! Italia Tours made sure everything ran smoothly! The tour guides were great! The high speed train was clean, comfortable, and fast! Pompeii was incredible and very emotional. The wine tasting, the lunch, and the staff members at Bosco de Medici Winery and Vineyards were all top notch! We got to chat with other members of our tour and had such a wonderful and memorable day!

Horrible vendor - Horrible! I tried to cancel our trip 24 hours in advance due to a flight delay. I was told the tickets had already been purchased. I called and explained we would not make that time the did nothing to accommodate and wanted to charge me full amount for the services I never received. I asked if I could arrange to pick up the tickets that were purchased, with no response I disputed the charge on my card. The company now two months later after the dispute was found in my favor is threating to send me personally to collections. Saying a contact was entered on the site I am responsible. Please do not use this vendor horrible horrible experience. Will be reporting to bbb👎
