About this tour
Leave Rome behind for a full-day journey to the ancient streets of Pompeii and the slopes of Mount Vesuvius. This private tour begins with hotel pickup at 7 a.m., then follows a scenic route south in an air-conditioned vehicle. A stop along the way gives you time to grab coffee or snacks before reaching Vesuvius.
Spend time exploring the volcano at your own pace, with your driver available throughout the day. Continue to Pompeii, where you can join an official guide in a group of 10 to 30 people or explore independently with an audio guide and map. Lunch is not included, so you can choose a restaurant in Pompeii or near Vesuvius. Groups of up to three travel by car; larger parties use a 7-seat SUV or minivan.
With hotel pickup and drop-off included, this Rome Pompeii and Vesuvius private tour makes it easy to experience two remarkable destinations in one day. Choose your Pompeii guide option and set out for a memorable day beyond the city.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 3.67 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.9.
