Combining Pompeii with the coast
Pompeii sits directly on the route to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast, so it is easy to add to a transfer. Book the entry tickets in advance for popular dates, wear comfortable shoes — the stone streets are uneven and there is little shade — and let us handle luggage in the vehicle while you explore.
Which vehicle?
We match the vehicle to your group and luggage: a sedan for up to 3 passengers, a van for up to 7, a minibus for larger groups. Tell us how many large suitcases you have and we will size it properly.
