Private Tour: Positano, Pompeii & Mount Vesuvius
A single day spanning the Amalfi Coast, ancient Rome, and the summit of a live volcano.
This private tour Positano Pompeii Vesuvio takes you through three of southern Italy's most iconic destinations in one seamless, fully private eight-hour journey. A dedicated driver collects you from your chosen departure point and handles all logistics so you can focus entirely on the experience. The route balances coastal scenery, archaeological wonder, and volcanic landscape in a single day.
The morning begins with a scenic coastal drive toward Positano, where your driver pauses at the finest viewpoints along the route for photographs before you explore the pastel-coloured village at your own pace. From there, the itinerary moves inland to Pompeii, the UNESCO-listed city frozen in time by the eruption of 79 AD, where you can walk the ancient streets and take in the remarkable state of preservation.
The afternoon ascent to Mount Vesuvius delivers a perspective that few visitors expect: a close look into the crater of the only active volcano on mainland Europe, paired with sweeping views across the Bay of Naples. Your driver waits at the parking area while you make the short walk to the rim, then escorts you back to your departure point at the agreed time.

Day Itinerary
Your private driver collects you from the agreed departure point and heads south along the Amalfi Coast. Along the way, the driver stops at the most scenic lookout points so you can photograph the clifftop villages and turquoise water below.
Upon arrival in Positano, you are free to explore the village independently: browse the lanes, visit the beach, or sit at a cafe overlooking the sea. Your driver waits while you discover the town at your own pace.
Re-board your private vehicle and travel toward the ancient city of Pompeii. The drive takes you away from the coast and into the shadow of Mount Vesuvius.
Enter the UNESCO-listed archaeological site (entrance ticket not included) and stroll through the remarkably preserved streets, forums, and villas of the Roman city buried in 79 AD. Allow as much time here as your schedule permits.
Your driver takes you up the scenic highway toward the volcano and drops you at the crater-side parking lot. From there, a short walk leads to the rim of the crater, where you can look down into the cone and take in the panorama of the Bay of Naples.
At the time confirmed by your driver, you meet at the parking lot and begin the return journey. You are dropped off at your original departure point, concluding the tour.
