About this experience
The Pompeii Day Trip from Rome is the simplest way to see Italy's most famous archaeological site. Pompeii is about three hours from Rome, and getting there alone means trains, changes and queues. We handle all of it, so you can enjoy the day.
Your Pompeii Day Trip from Rome, step by step
You meet at a central point in Rome and travel south in a comfortable, air-conditioned minibus. A tour escort, or accompagnatore, assists the group throughout the journey.
At Pompeii you enter with priority access and explore with your licensed expert guide for about 2 hours. Walk the remarkably preserved streets, see villas, frescoes and bathhouses, and hear how people lived before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Guides speak English, French, German or Spanish.
