About this tour
Skip the hassle of train changes and packed buses. A private driver whisks you from Rome to Positano in a comfortable, air-conditioned car, pausing for roughly two hours at Pompeii so you can explore the preserved Roman city without backtracking later. You arrive refreshed on the Amalfi Coast, ready to settle into your accommodation rather than scrambling to fit sightseeing in afterwards.

What to expect
Your driver will collect you from your Rome location and head south towards the coast. The drive is straightforward motorway, taking roughly three hours to reach Pompeii. You'll have around two hours to walk the archaeological site—enough for the main streets, amphitheatre, and houses, though not a leisurely pace. Bring sturdy shoes and sun protection. After Pompeii, it's another ninety minutes to Positano, descending into the dramatic Amalfi coastline. The car is air-conditioned throughout.
Good to know
Pompeii admission (€20) and any guided tour are separate costs. Bring lunch or eat near the ruins; nothing's included. Prams fold into the boot. Confirm your pick-up address and time the night before. Traffic around Naples can add thirty minutes during rush hour.
