# Premium Minivan Trip from Rome: Pompeii Tour & Lunch in Sorrento

**Guidekin's take:** Picked for the small touches: coffee and a pastry on arrival in Pompeii, a certified archaeologist for the ruins and a reserved seaside lunch in Sorrento on the option that includes it, all in a small minivan group, rated 4.97 across 372 reviews. Transport, breakfast and the guide are included at €89 per person, hotel pickup and tips are not.

## Overview

Everything is arranged for you: roundtrip transport from Rome, a guided Pompeii tour with a real archaeologist, light Italian breakfast on arrival, and an authentic Italian lunch in Sorrento with a seaside view. No planning. No stress. Just a seamless, all-inclusive 12-hour day. Travel in a small group aboard a comfortable, air-conditioned van. In Pompeii, start your day with coffee and breakfast before exploring the ruins with a certified archaeologist.
