Tour Description
Explore a paradise bursting with color and flavor and the immortal ruins of an ancient city frozen in time. The Amalfi Coast and Pompeii are truly sights to behold, standing at the junction where rich Roman history meets modern Italian vibrancy. We’ve come up with an itinerary carefully crafted for our clients. But you can fully customize your Pompeii and Amalfi tour any way you like.
From world-famous Pompeii to the lesser-known but alluring ghost-town of Herculaneum, another of Vesuvius’ victims, Campania is your playground and we’re here to help you discover it. Visit any town you desire along the Amalfi Coast, from Positano to Ravello to Sorrento. Then take a boat and dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean, explore the hidden islands and grottos around Capri, and fall in love with Italy all over and again. Fitting all this into a one-day excursion may seem impossible, but we are more than happy to give suggestions and make your trip an unforgettable experience.
Roam the ancient ghost-towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum
Your private driver will take you on a journey to the immortal ruins of these ancient settlements. Pompeii is world-famous: a fully functioning Roman city drained of life when Vesuvius erupted in the October of 79 AD. Gorgeously painted villas and fascinating remnants of life appear at every twist and turn. Explore Pompeii’s stunning mosaicked villas; visit its seedy Lupanar (brothel); even discover the first ever “beware of the dog” sign at the House of the Tragic Poet.
If you want to journey off the beaten path, visit the less famous site of Herculaneum: an ancient port town consumed by the same eruption. Meet Herculaneum’s grisly skeletons, which greet you from within the boathouse as you first enter the site. Wander the town’s ancient cobbled streets, lined with multi-storeyed buildings found all over ancient Italy. Enter the College of the Augustales where priestesses performed sacrifices in honour of the emperor, worshipping him as a god.
Explore the Amalfi Coast and acquaint yourself with its treasures
Next, the destinations are yours to decide. Stop at the seemingly endless amount of picturesque coastline towns like Positano, Amalfi, Minori, Maiori, Cetara, Vietri, or Sorrento. Drive through the Amalfi countryside and down the coastline of Campania, soaking in unforgettable views of the jagged cliffs, teal-blue waters, and vibrant villas.
Your expert guide will be able to recommend the best Amalfi Coast experience for you. Whether you want to sample the region’s succulent seafood cuisine, wander the breathtakingly beautiful towns and resorts along the coast, or visit the splendid estate and gardens of Ravello’s Villa Rufolo, your local guide is full of suggestions to transform your time in Amalfi into an unforgettable adventure.
Boat over to Capri for an unforgettable adventure
Amalfi’s littoral paradise could occupy you for a lifetime. But if your yearning is to take to the crystal clear waters that stretch as far as the eye can see then organized in advance you can take a private boat or high-speed ferry over to the island of Capri. Though no longer the seat of vice and debauchery it once was when the emperor Tiberius erected his pleasure palace there, Capri is still no doubt a retreat offering indulgence. Explore its stunning Blue Grotto and Villa of Jove (Tiberius’ palace). Or simply sit back with some regional wine, aperitivo, or a meal and enjoy a stunning panoramic overlooking the Mediterranean.
