How to Get to Pompeii from Rome
By Viator, October 2017
- Pompeii is located 150 miles (242 kilometers) southeast of Rome, a 2.5-hour journey by road.
- Most tours travel from Rome to Naples by train, and then transfer to minivan or bus. A few tours drive directly from Rome, so be sure to check the itinerary.
- Virtually all tours include skip-the-line access to the ruins at Pompeii.
- Pack for warm weather—especially in summer—since southern Italy is often a few degrees warmer than central Rome.
- Full-day Pompeii tours usually meet in Rome around 6am or 7am, and most last between 12 and 14 hours.
