Questions about tours in Naples

Last updated June 3, 2026

Can Pompeii be a day trip from Naples?

Yes. Pompeii is about 30 to 40 minutes from Naples, and we offer half-day and full-day Pompeii trips with skip-the-line tickets, a Pompeii and Herculaneum day, a kids' version, and a day combining Pompeii with the Amalfi Coast.

Is 2 hours enough time in Pompeii?

Two hours shows you the highlights, but the site is enormous. Three to four hours with a guide is better, and a guide helps you find the best-preserved houses and avoid walking in circles.

Should I buy tickets to Pompeii in advance?

Yes, especially from spring to autumn, as entry is limited and lines can be long. All our Pompeii tours include skip-the-line tickets.

What is there to do in Naples itself?

Start with our Introduction to Naples tour, then pick from the Archaeological Museum (where many of the finds from Pompeii are kept), underground Naples, Caravaggio and the Sansevero Chapel, or the Elena Ferrante literary tour. Food lovers should try our pizza-making workshop.

Can we visit the Amalfi Coast from Naples?

Yes. We offer a full-day trip to Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi and a full day combining Pompeii with the Amalfi Coast. If you would rather stay on the coast, see our Amalfi Coast villas.

Want something not on the list?

A private cooking class with a Michelin chef in Naples. A vineyard with the founder. A truffle hunt in November with the dog who actually finds them. Tell us the brief and we'll have our partner build the experience.
