About this tour
A 6–9 hour private tour threading together three of Campania's most striking destinations: the volcanic ruins of Pompeii, the clifftop charm of Sorrento, and the photogenic villages of Positano's coastline. Your English-speaking driver collects you from Naples or Salerno port and shapes the itinerary to suit your pace, weaving archaeology, coastal views, local food stops and cultural moments into a single arc. Expect a full day of movement between sites rather than a deep dive into any one place.
Highlights
- Walk the ash-preserved streets of Pompeii at your own speed
- Sorrento's lemon terraces and pastel-coloured architecture
- Positano's stacked fishing village perched above turquoise water
- Private air-conditioned vehicle with flexible routing
- Driver expertise on local history and recommendations
What to expect
Your driver meets you at the port with a cool, comfortable car and a willingness to adjust timing based on what interests you most. You'll spend time wandering Pompeii's haunting Roman streets—either self-guided or with a separate archaeologist if you book one separately. Then it's a scenic drive to Sorrento, where you can stroll pedestrian lanes, grab a limoncello, or sit for lunch overlooking the Bay of Naples. The final leg takes you down the snaking Amalfi Drive to Positano, a village almost too vertical to believe, where narrow alleys tumble toward pebbly beaches and pastel shutters. You're not rushed; the day unfolds to your rhythm.
Good to know
Pompeii entry ticket not included—purchase on-site or pre-book. Vehicle is wheelchair accessible; prams and specialised infant seats available. Wear sturdy shoes for volcanic stone paths. At least moderate fitness needed for walking Pompeii and Positano's steep lanes. Driver can suggest meal stops but restaurant bills are yours.
