Pompeii Day Trip from Rome | Semi-Private Experience

LivTours’ Pompeii Day Trip from Rome Tour is the perfect semi-private tour for travelers who are visiting Rome and want to experience a bit of southern Italy.  Touring Pompeii allows you to dive into the past, immersing yourself in the expansive and unique archaeological ruins that have attracted travelers for centuries. With your expert guide and group of no more than six travelers, you will explore the archaeological excavations of Pompeii.  Buried under a blanket of ash during the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD, they remained until 1500 years later when excavations started.  

Your Pompeii Day Trip from Rome is a semi-private tour which means you will be touring this archaeological site with a maximum of six people in your group.  This makes your tour more personalized with an emphasis on quality over quantity. Optimize your time as best as possible while on vacation and stick with smaller groups, so that no time is wasted and you have direct contact with our guide. A semi-private tour is a great way to meet like-minded people and enjoy your tour to its fullest!

LivTours’ Pompeii Day Trip from Rome starts by meeting your expert chauffeur at a pick-up point in central Rome.  Knowing you are in excellent hands, this is your time to sit back and enjoy the panoramic views as you are comfortably transported to Naples. Once you are in Naples, your driver will take you to see one of the most vibrant parts of the city! 

This is the Italy you have seen on TV and in movies, so get your cameras ready to  capture this bustling city center, as well as the magnificent Gulf of Naples. This picture is a perfect city with clothes drying on lines that cross the streets, typical windowsill scenes and the  carefree (sometimes hair-raising) attitude of scooter drivers.  All these factors add up to making Naples the vibrant urban city of the south! 

No trip to Naples is complete without tasting its food. Ask most Italians and they will admit that anything from Naples is somehow tastier! That is why LivTours offers you a light lunch of typical pizza and a drink in Naples to get you ready for the second part of the day. Come see for yourself if what they say about Neapolitan food is true. Buon appetito!

THE STUNNING RUINS OF POMPEII

After you have finished lunch, your driver will take you directly to Pompeii. You will be met by your professional archeologist guide who will immerse you in this well-preserved archaeological site on a 2.5 hour journey into the past. You will enjoy privileged access to Pompeii, so you will not waste a minute of your tour! You will see for yourself how the ancient Romans designed this thriving ancient port, and trading town as you piece together its history with the help of your expert Pompeii guide.

One of the beauties of a semi-private tour is that you can ask as many questions as you like and satisfy your curiosity for history. Your Pompeii tour will take you to explore the archaeological site in depth. You will learn about  the forum of Pompeii, the homes of its residents, the public baths, the temple of Isis, the house of the gladiators and of course all about that fateful day 2000 years ago, when the residents of Pompeii were buried alive.

Once you have finished your tour of this active excavation site, taken in the beautiful views and learned about its history, your driver will take you back to Rome in comfort, allowing you to enjoy the rest of your evening in Italy’s capital.

All LivTours Semi-Private Group Tours are limited to 6 guests per tour guide. Our commitment to maintaining our uniquely tiny group sizes can sometimes be a little tricky, mathematically speaking. For example, we want to ensure that traveling families and friends can tour together so on rare occasions we may add one or two guests in order to not split groups. On that same note, you may also find yourself on tour with less than six people! We thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
