Your Itinerary
DriverinRome Transportation & Tours
(Pass by)
This full-day private service to Pompeii consists of your own English-speaking driver and a private, licensed tour guide of the ruins if you wish. We'll fetch your right from your centrally-located Rome hotel in an air-conditioned sedan or minivan and head south to Italy’s Campania region.
Castelli Romani
(Pass by)
Heading south from Rome, we'll drive past the Castelli Romani -- which translates as "Roman Castles" -- in the Roman Countryside near beautiful Lake Albano. The Castelli Romani aren't castles in the sense of gigantic Medieval fortified dwellings but rather a group of villages located around the lake at the feet of the Alban Hills, in the territory corresponding to Old Latium, steeped in ancient history.
Abbazia di Montecassino
(Pass by)
The Abbey of Montecassino is a historic monastery best known for the Battle of Montecassino during World War II, which resulted in huge Allied and German casualties as well as the near-total destruction of the town itself. The massive complex has been rebuilt and cuts a fine figure as you drive by.
Bay of Naples
(Pass by)
The Bay of Naples is a handsome gulf that stretches for about 15 kilometers from Naples to Sorrento, dominated to the east by the imposing figure of Mount Vesuvius,
Vesuvius National Park
(Pass by)
Mount Vesuvius, one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world, sits in the middle of a densely populated area and looms over the landscape with its unmistakable profile.
Pompeii Archaeological Park
Pompeii is a place where time has stood still since 79 AD, when the cataclysmic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius rained tons of ash and lava down on the Roman city. The monumental disaster perfectly preserved the city, giving us a unique look at Ancient Roman life.

Our driver Riccardo was fabulous. He was engaging, informative, and really took good care of us along the drive making sure that we had everything we needed and were comfortable. And he pointed out interesting things along the way. Our tour guide Barbara was awesome too! She really gave a fantastic overview of Pompeii in such a way that we left feeling that we had a real sense of the big picture of the life and history of Pompeii. Thank you to both Ricardo and Barbara. We didn't ever feel rushed and we were back in Rome in time to enjoy the late afternoon.

David was the kindest and most intelligent guide and driver. He was punctual and very literate in the culture and his English was near perfect. He was amazing with my father and three kids. He arranged a great guide, Santiago for Pompeii, who was very very gentle and well spoken and incredibly well versed in the history. He brought Pompeii to life. David brought us to a restaurant by Pompeii, and was honest that he had connections there and there was no pressure to eat there. We did, and it was touristy but actually excellent and affordable. The food was very delicious and fresh and service kind. We can't say enough good things! Grazie mille

Our driver, Andrea, is truly delightful. My husband and I enjoyed his pleasant and funny demeanor. He offered great suggestions, and made it easy for us to accomplish what to see and do. He is personable, knowledgeable and so proud of the city and country. He is also an excellent driver. We highly recommend seeking him out for a private drive and tour.
