Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Pompeii - Archaeological Area., Porta Marina Superiore (Via Villa dei Misteri) Piazza Immacolata, Piazza Porta Marina inf., 80045 Pompeii Italy

Begin the day with a pickup from your accommodation or the cruise port at approximately 8:00 - 8:30am

Arrive at the entrance of the excavation at Pompeii. There, you'll either purchase your entry ticket and explore the ruins on your own or, if you have chosen this option, you'll meet your licensed tour guide for a tour of the site. In either case, you have about two hours to explore Pompeii.

Founded in 600 B.C., a once-thriving commercial port of 20,000, Pompeii grew from Greek and Etruscan roots to become an important Roman city. Then on August 24, A.D. 79, everything changed. Vesuvius erupted and began to bury the city under 30 feet of hot volcanic ash. For the archaeologists who excavated it centuries later, the ruins taught them volumes about daily Roman life. Today Pompeii as well Herculaneum offer the best look anywhere at what life in Rome must have been like around 2,000 years ago. This city of well-preserved ruins is yours to explore. Not rich, not poor, it was middle class—a perfect example of typical Roman life.

A must see.... we signed up for the private tour so there were only four of us and it was well worth it. The tour guide was a archeologist and so knowledgeable about Pompeii. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Europe. They picked us up at the docks Royal Caribbean on time and we headed to Pompeii. After the Pompeii tour, our driver took us on a tour of Naples. We had him take us to a good restaurant where the locals eat for lunch and we were delighted with our meal. Highly recommend the private tour of Pompeii

Excellent tour. Our guide was incredible and Pompeii, awe inspiring. Just wish we had a little more time to explore on our own. Half day is really not enough time! Do yourself a favor and pack snacks, lunch and plenty of water. Then plan extra time to just explore on your own. Lovely tour.

Just fantastic. Our driver had lots of information along the way. The car was beautiful and it was such a quick and efficient trip from the cruise port to Pompeii. We got to Pompeii ruins with time to have a coffee before it opened and we then had a good two hours to wander about. Obviously Pompeii is a place you want to spend a day or two visiting the ruins to take it all in but as we were on a cruise ship it was a great tour to book to go see that and then be back to Naples by lunch to wander about the city, get a pizza and be back on our cruise ship. Our driver was fabulous and told us all about the city and points of interest to see, even dropping us in the city so we could wander about and make our own way back to the ship. Really impressed with this booking and would highly recommend.
