Full-Day Guided Excursion from the Amalfi Coast
Pompeii, Vesuvius & Wine Tasting — All-Inclusive Day Tour from the Amalfi Coast
Ancient ruins, a live volcano, and local wines — one unforgettable day in Campania.
This Pompeii and Vesuvius tour from the Amalfi Coast takes you from the preserved streets of a Roman city to the summit crater of an active volcano, then rounds out the day at a family-run winery inside the Vesuvius National Park.
Departing directly from your accommodation, the journey covers three of the most historically and geologically significant sites in southern Italy. A qualified archaeological guide leads the Pompeii segment, placing the ruins in their full historical context before the eruption of 79 AD.
The ascent of Mount Vesuvius begins at 1,000 metres above sea level, following the Gran Cone path to the crater rim. The views across the Gulf of Naples from this vantage point are expansive and reward the moderate uphill walk.
The afternoon visit to Casa Setaro, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve winery in Trecase, closes the day with a guided tasting of wines produced from ungrafted vines — a viticultural rarity that has defined this estate since 1995.
Tour Highlights
Walk through the Forum, Basilica, thermal baths, bakery, and residential houses of ancient Pompeii with an expert archaeological guide.
Hike the Gran Cone path on Mount Vesuvius and stand at the rim of one of Europe's most famous active volcano craters.
Take in sweeping panoramic views of the Gulf of Naples from an altitude of over 1,200 metres.
Enjoy a lunch paired with wine tasting at Casa Setaro, a historic estate within the Vesuvius National Park.
Discover the significance of ungrafted vines and the unique terroir of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve vineyard.
Travel in a small group with door-to-door pickup and drop-off from your Amalfi Coast accommodation.
