Tivoli, Hadrians Villa and Villa d'Este, a charming day trip from Rome

6 hoursFree Cancellation

Reaching Pompeii from Rome on your own means sorting trains and connections, and the ruins are vast enough to lose your bearings once you arrive. Join a guided tour to handle both, with coach transport from Rome and a route straight to the site's highlights. From there, you can shape the day: add a crater hike or a geologist-led walk at Mt. Vesuvius, extend your time in Pompeii, or upgrade to a Neapolitan lunch over the Bay of Naples.

What are people saying about Rome

Kristina_B, Aug 2026

Like walking back in...

Like walking back in time! Hisam (the Egyptian) guide was so great!!! He really brought you back to the gladiator times with his vivid descriptions and had such a deep knowledge of the ruins. The scope of the ruins and collesium was unreal. It was so special to be able to walk through and envision all the history of that area and Hisam was the best guide to spend the morning with!

Pompeii from Rome with Optional Mt. Vesuvius & Pizza Lunch

Stephanie_L, Aug 2026

Must do!

Wonderful trip, you must do it!! Antonino was a great guide and our driver was excellent. We learned a lot and the authentic 3 course pizza lunch was huge and very good. I originally wanted to go to Naples to have pizza but I am glad I did this instead. The Mt Vesuvius hike is very doable as long as you are ok with a 15 degree incline the whole way up (about 20 minutes to the top). If it’s going to be a hot day, make sure you bring a water bottle, fan, and sunscreen!

Colosseum, Palatine Hill & Roman Forum Live Guide or Audio App

Zaynab_M, Aug 2026

Amazing Experience!

This 3 in 1 package is a steal! Being able to have access to the Coliseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill was very convenient especially since they’re all in the same vicinity. I will note, they really stick to arrival times so be sure to arrive early for your guide/pick up your tickets. We opted to do the audio guide and it was definitely worth it because the audio guide was so informative and easy to follow along. 10/10 highly recommend for your next trip to Rome.

Pompeii, Sorrento & Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Rome

Dawn_B, Aug 2026

Beautiful trip to Sorrento Pompeii

Great tour, very comfortable experience on our day trip onboard a motor coach bus. Our driver and guide made sure we had adequate stops for bathroom checks and drinks. Very knowledgeable about the location and kept our attention throughout the 12 hour day! Great food with unbelievable views, wouldn’t have probably found these spots without the recommendation from Eriicka!! Highly recommend Ericka and Fredricko!!! A++

Vernon_B, Aug 2026

Best tour guide!

Christine is undoubtedly the BEST tour guide in Rome. We were so fortunate to have her lead us through the Vatican, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica. She was engaging, entertaining, and incredibly knowledgeable. Highly recommend requesting her specifically for your tour!

Pompeii, Amalfi Coast and Positano Day Trip from Rome

Aaron_G, Aug 2026

Great for day trip to Positano and Pompeii!!!

Wow what a memorable trip with Enrica… an Italian Nonna with a heart of gold! Full of knowledge and humor and I loved her energy and attention to the admittedly tight timetable. Everything was so smooth and seamless for the trip… no need to charter a bunch of private taxis. There is definitely a lot of drive time probably about 6 hours total, but it’s broken up enough that it doesn’t feel that way. I do wish we got to spend more time in Positano, only ended up being about 1.5 hours there, but there were adequate breaks included throughout and all things considered it was a great value. I suggest if you want to spend a full day in Positano to actually stay there overnight somehow. The tour guides at Pompeii were also awesome. All in all highly recommend.

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Tour + Basilica

Binh_T, Aug 2026

Amazing tour!

It was an amazing tour. Gaga was great. Friendly, knowledgeable and made sure all of our questions were answered. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I wouldn’t have the same experience if i went there myself. Would definitely do this tour all over again. Everything was breathtaking.

Amalfi & Positano Day Trip from Rome with Coastal Cruise

Angelo_D, Aug 2026

Amalfi tour

Tour was a lot but the tour guide was 10/10. Roberto or Rob was amazing, he made the whole experience so special. Very down to earth, knowledgeable kind and accommodating. He gave us amazing recommendations and treated us as if we were family. Easily one of the best high lights on my trip.

Great full day

Flavio our tour guide was great. His historical story telling was awesome. He was also very caring about the guest on the group. Pace of the tour was on point. Lunch at farm restaurant was very nice detail. Great experience. Montepulciano and Piensa were beautiful and very nice towns to visit. Thank you.

Tivoli Full Day Trip from Rome: Hadrian's Villa and Villa D'Este

Virginia_T, Aug 2026

Villa d’Este is awe-inspiring

Fantastic insight into Roman society 2000 years ago at Hadrian’s Villa (palace) and 1800’s at Villa d'Este, which has been on my bucket list since I learned about Italian landscape design at university. Totally worth the visit despite the punishing heat in August. The hydrological engineering & use of what starts as a tiny water source into multiple fountains & sculptures without use of pumps or electricity is awe-inspiring & spectacular. Definitely a highlight of my trip.

Colosseum & Forum with Optional Arena or Underground Access

Yvonne_D, Aug 2026

Take this tour!

Get a guide! There is so much history here and if you travel all this way to see it and learn about it, spend the extra to get a guided tour. Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly! Gave us such a great picture of ancient Roman life. We had direct access to the sites. Incredible tour!

From Rome to Tuscany: Discover Florence and Pisa in One Day

Caitlin_D, July 2026

Just Amazing

Silvia was the name of the tour guide and she was wonderful ., She was very kind and attentive and she made sure anyone who needed a taxi got one when we arrived in florence to the restaurants location and she did a good head count before leaving to the next stop each time we would board again the bus and her spanish was very good because she studied in Spain and then lived there from age 18-27 she had told me herself this when i spoke with her one on one while walking towards the location of the historic sites and her english was very clear as well . The tour was impeccable and an experience i will hopefully always remember . I would definitely use this tour company again if i am able to return to rome in the future .
