Naples to Pompeii, Positano and Salerno Private Tour
One full day across ancient ruins, a cliffside village, and a storied southern city
This full day private tour from Naples to Pompeii, Positano, and Salerno brings together three distinct sides of southern Italy in a single, unhurried journey. You travel in a private chauffeur-driven vehicle along the celebrated Amalfi Coast, pausing at landmarks that span nearly two thousand years of history. The route is rated easy, making it accessible for most travelers.
Pompeii offers a rare encounter with daily Roman life, frozen in time by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The Forum, the Via dell'Abbondanza, and the House of the Vettii each reveal a different layer of the ancient city. The site is compact enough to explore meaningfully within the time allotted.
Positano draws visitors with its stacked, pastel-colored houses and a beach that opens directly onto the Tyrrhenian Sea. The town is also known for hand-painted majolica ceramics, fresh seafood cuisine, and the hillside church of Santa Maria Assunta. The winding streets reward slow exploration.
Salerno, often overlooked in favor of its more famous neighbors, offers a quieter but equally rewarding stop. The Lungomare Trieste promenade and the Cathedral, which houses the relics of Saint Matthew, give the city a distinct character. Local shops and crafts add an everyday texture to the visit.
Tour Highlights
Walk through the Forum and main streets of Pompeii, one of the best-preserved ancient Roman cities in the world.

Travel the entire route in a private chauffeur-driven vehicle along the scenic Amalfi Coast road.
Itinerary
Your private vehicle departs from Naples and begins the scenic drive toward the Amalfi Coast. The coastal road itself is a significant part of the experience, offering clifftop vistas and sea views throughout the journey.
Explore Positano at your own pace, wandering the winding streets lined with boutiques selling ceramics and local fashions. Descend to Spiaggia Grande for the beach, and ascend to the Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta for panoramic views and a beautifully decorated interior.
Enter through the Porta Marina and make your way through the Forum, the Via dell'Abbondanza, and the House of the Vettii. The Amphitheatre, the Street of Tombs, and the two preserved theaters add further depth to the visit.
Begin at the Lungomare Trieste, a seafront promenade with open views of the Gulf of Salerno. Continue to the Salerno Cathedral, notable for its crypt containing the relics of Saint Matthew, and browse the surrounding streets for local crafts.
Your private chauffeur drives you back to Naples along the same coastal route. Total driving time is estimated at around five hours and may vary depending on traffic conditions.
