Amalfi Coast and Pompeii private tour from Rome with gourmet lunch

Amalfi Coast tours from Rome will often pack you onto a big tour bus, but this private tour sees you reach Campania in style and comfort with an air-conditioned minivan. Once there you’ll visit Pompeii’s archaeological site and then it’s onto the gorgeous cliffside village of Positano.

Take a journey back in time to the frozen city of Pompeii

This Amalfi Coast and Pompei private tour from Rome starts with you meeting your tour leader in the eternal city, before boarding a luxurious minivan to see two of Italy’s unmissable sights. First stop is the astonishing city of Pompeii. When Vesuvius erupted in 79AD,  it was covered in volcanic ash which has preserved the city’s streets which you can still see today. Lined with palaces full of mosaics and frescoes, you’ll be able to walk through it and see just what it was like nearly 2,000 years ago. Hear the stories of the Roman Forum, the brothel, and the houses - while you’ll also see the world-famous plasters casts of those who were killed in the eruption.

Enjoy the breathtaking Amalfi Coast from one of Italy’s most beautiful villages

Get back in the minivan for a short ride to the Amalfi Coast from Pompeii. How far is the Amalfi Coast from Rome? Around 4 hours, comfortably with our transportation service. Enjoy the spectacular panoramic views from the twists and turns of the cliffside road before the pastel-coloured houses come into view. Stop in Positano for some free time, dip in and out of little artisanal shops selling shoes, dresses and limoncello. A truly relaxing moment from the hustle and bustle of the capital city. 

Have a delicious seafood lunch and go for a swim

As part of this fantastic Rome to Positano day trip, you’ll also get a delicious fresh seafood gourmet lunch on the Amalfi Coast, sampling local delights such as Caprese salad, pasta and fresh fish. That comes before the free time in the village, while we’d recommend bringing or buying a swimsuit so you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the sea or sunbathing on the pebbly beach. You’re sure to be refreshed by the time it comes to board the minivan again - where you’ll be given a little surprise by our tour leaders as a memento of the day.
