Pompeii and Naples Day trip from Rome

About this activity

Leave the chaos of Rome behind on a full-day trip to Pompeii and Naples. Travel swiftly by high-speed train from Roma Termini to Naples, or choose a private car with 7:00 AM hotel pick-up for door-to-door comfort. If you take the train, you’ll arrive in just over an hour and meet your local driver for a smooth transfer to Pompeii; by car, the drive to Pompeii takes about 2.5–3 hours.

In Pompeii, walk ancient streets halted by the 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius. Explore on your own or add a licensed private guide to deepen the story of villas, temples, frescoes, and street-food counters preserved for nearly two millennia.

After Pompeii, continue to Naples for free time to wander the historic center, stroll the waterfront, browse markets, and taste true Neapolitan pizza. Return to Rome in the evening—by fast train or private vehicle—having experienced archaeology, city life, and the flavor of Southern Italy, with logistics planned for you.
