The tour will start with a beautiful drive down the Amalfi Coast, along what is said to be one of the most spectacular coastal roads in Europe. There will be a photo stop along the coast to enjoy the breath taking views of the Amalfi Coast.
Later in the morning, the tour will stop in Sorrento, a beautiful town straddling the cliffs overlooking the water to Naples and Mount Vesuvius. There will be free time to explore the area, visit the souvenir shops and sample the local produce of Sorrento - an area famous for its lemons and the production of the digestif, Limoncello.
The drive from Sorrento to Pompeii takes about 45 minutes, with Mount Vesuvius in full view and the island of Capri to your right-hand side. Your dedicated guide will give you running commentary throughout the journey and will stay with you throughout the day, except during your free time in Sorrento.
On arrival in Pompeii, your English-speaking guide will take you on a two-hour tour of the famous ruins and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Learn all about the lost city buried by the ash of Mount Vesuvius following its catastrophic eruption in 79 AD. Your guide will be on hand to give you all the information on what is arguably Europe's most compelling archaeological site.
After the visit to Pompeii there will be a little free time for you to use the bathroom, get a coffee or do a little souvenir shopping.
The tour will end with a drive back to the port of Naples which will take approximately 90 minutes, leaving plenty of time for your cruise ship departure.
Tickets to enter Pompeii are not included and cost approximately 21 euro per person (please note prices may change). Free admission will be given for visitors from both within and outside the EU who are under the age of 18, though you will be required to produce an ID or passport as proof of age
