I have been really lucky when it comes to enjoying great weather while traveling.
From a cloudless day high at Honk Kong to an unbeatable blue sky in Cinque Terre to an incredible sun in Austria on a winter day, I’ve seen far more sunshine than rain clouds over the course of the last few years.
Pompeii was no Different.
Pompeii is the perfect place to spend a day. The city is small enough that you can walk to pretty much everything in a couple of hours.
Pompeii is a vast archaeological site in southern Italy’s Campania region, near the coast of the Bay of Naples. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. The preserved site features excavated ruins of streets and houses that visitors can freely explore.
The Walks of Italy tour to Pompeii will also take you to a town in the Amalfi Coast for lunch, so you get to experience a beautiful area and the nailbiting cliffside drive, but Amalfi it’s not a place you want to spend just a day.
So my suggestions if you staying Rome leave early in the morning and see Pompeii and after that spend feel days at the Almafi totally unforgettable.
Trains to Pompeii from Rome
The cheapest way to get to Pompeii for the day is to take the train. To be precise you need to take two kinds of trains to get from Rome to Pompeii. Rome to Naples, then Naples to Pompeii Scavi.
From Naples Centrale to Pompei Scavi on the Circumvesuviana takes about half an hour. Alternatively, Enjoy Rome runs a Pompeii Shuttle Day Trip Tour.
