8.Pompeii Tour & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

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

“The bus ride was comfortable. Vito was an awesome guide and very graceful with his knowledge of Pompeii. The Amalfi part was kind of lacklaster. If someone were to go swimming or even just get down to the beach then they would miss the bus. There were no directions to get to the beach. I think it would've been helpful if directions were included to the beach on the the pamphlet with the restaurant recommendations.”

Shee was so funny and engaging. we had a fairly long bus ride at the beginning, so she gave everyone a brief rundown of what wr would be doing before we got on the highway and then let everyone rest since it was quite early. When we got close to our next stop she woke everyone up by playing some very pleasant gentle music rather than making any loud announcements, which could have been jarring. It was just such a thoughtful touch! Our driver Roco was delightful- and seriously the best driver I have ever had. I get motion sick in vehicles but I didn't…”
