Private Tour: Pompeii and Sorrento with Priority Access
This full day experience blends the ancient history of Pompeii with the coastal atmosphere of Sorrento, offering two distinct perspectives on life in southern Italy. Pompeii provides an extraordinary look at a Roman city preserved after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79, with frescoed villas, paved streets, and public buildings that reveal the rhythms of everyday life. With insight from an expert guide, travelers gain a deeper appreciation for the art, engineering, and culture that shaped this once-thriving community, along with the compelling human stories reflected in the site’s plaster casts.
The day continues in Sorrento, where colorful alleys, local craftsmanship, and sweeping sea views highlight the town’s charm. A guided walk introduces landmarks in the historic center and the elegant coastal terraces overlooking the Bay of Naples. The combination of archaeological discovery and Mediterranean ambiance creates a memorable contrast, offering a rich encounter with both the region’s ancient past and its contemporary beauty.
