Review of the 13-hour Rome day trip to Pompeii, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast, with practical advice on pace, transport, value, and walking.

“This is a great way to visit Pompeii and Positano if you’re on a time crunch and want the experiences during your Rome trip. However, the whole thing felt very rushed and a little stressful. They push many reminders to get to the meeting point early, only to make you wait for the latest arrivals anyway and then rush you to the buses which are a few blocks away. The seats on the bus are tight - if you are tall or on the larger side they are not comfortable, your knees dig into the seat in front of you and there’s nowhere to rest your head since the seats…”

Review of the Normandy D-Day Beaches day trip from Paris, with Omaha Beach, Pointe du Hoc, the American Cemetery, Arromanches, and Juno Beach.

“The American speaking group got a van ride and not a big Coach. Sometimes it was hard to hear the tour guide in the van. The guide sometimes didn’t make sure the group stayed with him. He would walk ahead with the van. The company still allowed the booking on new years. Most stores and places were closed. So that was half our fault to assume it would be open.”

“The trip was so fulfilling! Thanks to Daniel and Victorio for making the trip so comfortable and filled with stories of the city’s rich history. From beaches to historic sites, we had many locations to cover, however none of it felt rushed. We had more than enough time to not only explore each city fully but also walk around the beaches, explore local eateries and even stop at instaworthy locations to click pictures. ✨ In Pompei, our guide Andreas gave us an amazing tour telling us interesting facts about signages, machines used and how societies functioned back then! Additionally, Daniel recommended some local eateries and experiences to explore on our…”

Pompeii Tour & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

14.Pompeii Tour & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,932 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $240

Review this 13-hour Rome day trip to Pompeii and Positano, with an archaeologist guide, private bus, scenic coast views, and practical tips.

“This is not truly a small group experience. It is a long bus ride with two groups, nearing 16 people. Cosimo, our guide, was fantastic. The Amalfi Coast was beautiful. Our Pompeii group leader was a bit aggressive. She covered a lot in 2 hours. On the other hand, we had to sacrifice beautiful pictures for information, as she very much rushed us. At times, she would not even allow us to stop for pictures”
