Pompeii Skip-the-Line Guided Tour by Bus from Sorrento or Naples, 4 Hours
A 30-seater bus collects the group at a set meeting point in either Sorrento or Naples, so the departure city is chosen at booking. The Sorrento pickup is at 08:15 at the Achille Lauro car park. The half-day comes with a licensed English-speaking guide for two hours, headsets and the entrance ticket to Pompeii.
Inside the ruins the guide covers the Forum with the Temple of Jupiter, the Macellum market, Via dell'Abbondanza, the Stabian Baths, the brothel and the Large Theatre. The remains of streets and houses can be explored, and the story of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD runs through the visit.
