1. What are the best shore excursions from the Port of Naples for first-time visitors?
For first-time visitors, the best choice is usually a tour that combines the area’s most iconic experiences with a realistic route for a cruise day. Our top recommendation is Naples To Pompeii, Sorrento & Positano Shore Excursion (Private Tour From Naples Port) because it pairs the world-famous ruins with classic coastal scenery and a beautiful town stop—an ideal “best of the region” day.
2. Where do we meet our driver at the Port of Naples?
Your driver will meet you at the cruise terminal area holding a sign with your name. After booking, we’ll confirm the exact meeting details and timing based on your ship and docking information.
3. Are your Naples shore excursions private?
Most Naples shore excursions are private (vehicle and driver exclusively for your party). We also offer a small-group option for guests who prefer a shared experience.
4. How long are your Naples shore excursions?
Most Naples shore excursions are typically listed as 9 hours, depending on the itinerary. We also offer a shorter 4-hour Pompeii half-day option.
5. Can we visit Pompeii from Naples cruise port?
Yes—Pompeii is one of the most popular shore excursions from Naples. If you want a deeper experience inside the ruins, we can arrange a licensed private guide.
6. Can we visit the Amalfi Coast from Naples cruise port?
Yes—the Amalfi Coast is a classic day from Naples. Your driver will help manage timing for scenic roads, viewpoints, and time in towns.
7. Can we visit Capri from Naples on a shore excursion?
Yes—Capri can be visited from Naples, often combined with another stop like Pompeii. Because Capri involves ferry/boat logistics, timing can depend on sea conditions and schedules.
8. What is the difference between Pompeii and Herculaneum?
Both are ancient Roman sites preserved by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Pompeii is larger and more expansive; Herculaneum is smaller and often feels more compact and detailed. If you’re unsure, we can help you choose based on your walking preferences and timing.
9. Is the driver also a guide?
Drivers are not licensed guides on foot. They can share context from inside the vehicle, but they cannot accompany you into sites or provide guided explanations once you exit the vehicle. If you’d like a guided visit (especially in Pompeii), we can arrange a licensed private guide.
10. Do you guarantee return to the ship on time in Naples?
We plan all itineraries around your ship’s schedule and realistic travel times back to port. Please share your ship name, docking time, and all-aboard time so we can build the safest timing.
11. What should we share when requesting a quote?
Please share your ship name, docking time, all-aboard time, desired start time, group size, and your preferred itinerary (Pompeii + coast, Amalfi Coast only, Pompeii + Capri, Herculaneum/Vesuvius, or Pompeii half-day). We’ll reply with the best options and pricing starting from €69.00 per person.
12. Is tipping/gratuity included? What is customary?
Gratuity is not included. Tipping is always optional and based on your satisfaction. As a simple guideline: 10% is good, 15% is great, and 20% is exceptional. Please tip only if you really liked the service.
