Step off your cruise ship at the Naples Cruise Terminal and set out on a carefully timed shore excursion that blends coastal charm with ancient history. This well-paced experience takes you to the sunlit streets of Sorrento where citrus-scented lanes, sea vistas and colourful local life invite relaxed exploration. Stroll through the historic centre, pause for photographs and absorb the Mediterranean atmosphere before savouring regional cuisine at a welcoming restaurant.
After lunch, the journey continues to the extraordinary archaeological site of Pompeii. Accompanied by a professional archaeologist, you will spend two hours walking amid well-preserved homes, forums, frescoed rooms and temples that reveal daily Roman life frozen by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The guided commentary brings the ruins to life, connecting artefacts and architecture to vivid stories of the past.
This shore excursion is designed for cruise passengers who want a seamless, comfortable day ashore: scenic views along the Amalfi Coast, authentic local flavours and immersive history. Whether you love archaeology, Italian food or coastal villages, the combination of Sorrento’s charm and Pompeii’s dramatic remains offers a memorable, thoughtfully organised experience that returns you to port on schedule.
