Budget Amalfi Express

Naples - Pompeii - Sorrento. Welcome to Italy. Meet your group and tour leader in Naples at 11:30, before travelling by private bus or minivan to our first destination: Pompeii. This UNESCO World Heritage site is home to some of the world's most remarkable ruins, buried under 4 to 6 metres of ash and pumice during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Exceptionally well-preserved, Pompeii offers an authentic glimpse into daily life in a Roman city, complete with villas, temples, theatres, and bustling markets. You will have the opportunity to explore the ruins at your own pace, with the entry ticket included. Alternatively, you can arrange a 2-hour guided tour with a professional local guide through your tour leader.

Our journey continues to Sorrento, a beautiful gem on the Amalfi Coast with stunning views of the Bay of Naples. Upon arrival, we check in to our accommodation, before the tour leader takes us on a stroll through the town centre, highlighting local products such as ceramics, handmade lace dresses, and exquisite handmade sandals. In the evening, you can choose to explore independently or join your guide for an optional dinner at a lively local restaurant, followed by drinks at a nearby club.
