Fixed fare · same-day returnPrice per car, not per person

Leave whenever suits you: your chauffeur waits at your hotel or any address you choose, takes care of the luggage and welcomes you aboard a quiet sedan.
The Autostrada del Sole runs down towards the Gulf of Naples as Vesuvius grows on the horizon. On request, a stop at the Abbey of Montecassino breaks the journey with one of southern Lazio's most beautiful views.
At the excavations the time is yours: two, three, four hours among the Forum, the villas and the casts — your driver waits at the car park, no rush. On the way back you relax on board and are in Rome by evening, door to door.
A little history
In 79 AD the eruption of Vesuvius buried Pompeii under metres of ash and lapilli, freezing streets, shops, frescoes and its inhabitants' gestures in an instant. Rediscovered from 1748, it is now a UNESCO site and one of the most visited archaeological areas in the world: allow at least three hours and book tickets online.
The Abbey of Montecassino, an optional stop on request, is the cradle of Western monasticism: here Saint Benedict wrote his Rule in the sixth century. Destroyed and rebuilt four times — most recently after the battle of 1944 — it overlooks the Liri valley from 516 metres, with a view that alone is worth the stop.

By car or by train: times, and when each one suits you
By car the journey takes full day, about 2.5 hours each way, measured between addresses rather than between stations: you leave from the address you give us and arrive at your destination, with no changes and no trips to and from stations. The train is often quicker on the station-to-station leg alone, and suits travellers with light luggage staying near the arrival station. The car suits larger groups, big luggage or children, addresses far from the stations, and journeys where you want to stop along the way. The actual distance depends on the addresses and on the route chosen: we confirm it in the quote, together with the price.
