What to expect
You'll be collected and driven to Pompeii first—the driver can offer historical background, but you'll need a separate guide or audio tour to fully understand the excavations. After exploring the ruins at your own speed, you'll head to Sorrento, a working town (not just a tourist trap) with cafés, shops, and views across the Bay of Naples. The final stretch to Positano is slow and winding—worth it for the village's impossible beauty, though parking and crowds can test your patience. The driver sorts all logistics: tolls, parking, traffic delays. You handle entry tickets and meals.
Good to know
Book an authorised guide separately if you want detailed Pompeii interpretation. Wear comfortable shoes for exploring ruins and village streets. Positano has limited parking; the driver will know the best spots. Summer heat is intense—bring water and sunscreen. Wheelchairs and prams are accommodated, but handlers must accompany them.
