Experience the allure of ancient Italy on this hassle-free day trip from Rome to the historic city of Pompeii and the summit of Mount Vesuvius. Travel by bus and enjoy the freedom to explore Pompeii at your own pace, purchasing an entrance ticket separately.
You'll travel in an air-conditioned bus, accompanied by an English-speaking tour leader, along the Autostrada del Sole, passing through the lush Roman countryside of the Castelli Romani and crossing the Vesuvius valley en route to Pompeii. Once you arrive in Pompeii, you can explore this fascinating site at your own pace.
In the early afternoon, upon reaching Ercolano, you'll board an open-top bus that will take you up to an altitude of around 1000 metres on the Vesuvius. Prepare to be captivated by the mesmerising panorama from this vantage point, then set back off for Rome.
