Is this tour right for you?

Choose Pick up at the Port + tickets for independent time inside Pompeii. You travel by shared minivan with up to 8 people. A digital audio guide lets you choose your pace.

The day starts with an hour in Sorrento. Positano gets a 15-minute terrace photo stop before 2 hours at Pompeii. City entry and return to Naples port are included; meals cost extra.

The included city ticket doesn't cover the Villa of the Mysteries. There's no live Pompeii guide on this option. The separate guide option joins a walk with an archaeologist and up to 20 people.

What I'd do: keep the audio option for my own pace and agree the port return before paying.

Chiara Vitale Writes pompeii.day

I grew up in Castellammare di Stabia, under the volcano, and spent six seasons on hotel front desks in Sorrento. Which ticket, which train, which gate, how many hours: I've answered these more times than I can count.

Now I live in Pompei, ten minutes on foot from the Amphitheatre gate, and I go into the site most weeks on a MyPompeii card. For this page I compared the options and booking terms with the park's rules. Report a correction.
