gatorchinsky Posted March 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Has anyone used the following company from the Naples cruise port to get to Pompeii and back? Just curious of the experiences you might have had. https://www.city-sightseeing.it/en/naples-to-pompeii-day-trip-shuttle-bus-ruins-of-pompeii/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I was looking at is a big red bus like a HOHO bus but it goes directly to Pompeii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I'm looking at goes to Pompeii too, but also other sites such as Herculaneum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing research trying to find ways to get to Pompeii...we already have a guide set up for us there. 🙂 So many options from taxi to train to private transport. The guide company we are using (Mondo Guide) said they would provide two-way transportation for 30 euros per person, but seems high to me. I don't know though 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know though 🙂 It is incredibly easy to take the Circumvesuviana train - that is how we always get to Pompeii (or Herculaneum or Sorrento). Bonus - it is very inexpensive.

Thanks - good to know. We boarded the tram on Cristoforo Colombo across from port - looking at Google maps, it appears bus 151 stops at the former tram stop. Do I understand this correctly?
