Practical tips
Pompeii is busy in summer and on weekends. Book your seat online beforehand to avoid paying more at the last minute or finding the bus full, and keep the instant confirmation on your phone.
Pompeii has several areas near the archaeological site and the town centre. Read your confirmation carefully to see where the bus leaves from, rather than assuming, so you don't wait at the wrong stop.
Naples has several stations and ports, such as Molo Beverello and Calata Porta di Massa for boats. Check the arrival stop first, then plan how to reach your hotel or port from there.
If you are connecting to Capri, Ischia or Sorrento, don't book a tight transfer. Road traffic can slow the bus, and summer boats fill up, so choose a crossing with a comfortable buffer.
Keep your passport, phone and wallet in a bag you hold on your lap. After a day at the ruins, a small daypack is much easier to manage on the bus than a large suitcase.
The journey experience
Pompeii to Naples is one of the easiest hops on a Campania itinerary, and you can decide how to do it quickly. The comparison table on this page puts duration and price side by side, so you don't need to piece the answer together from several websites. It is a short, low-stress transfer, ideal after a morning among the ruins.
The option listed for this route is the bus, a simple road transfer that suits independent travellers on a mid-range budget. Seats are generally comfortable enough for a short ride, there is usually room for a daypack or a small suitcase, and the bus is a budget-friendly way to reach the city. Traffic can affect the ride, especially at peak hours, so avoid cutting your connections too fine. Booking online gives you instant confirmation and the exact departure point.
Your best move is to book ahead in high season and to check the departure and arrival stops in your confirmation. Naples has several stations and ports, and it is easy to head to the wrong one. Keep your ticket on your phone, arrive at the stop a little early, and leave a comfortable margin if you are connecting to a boat for Capri or Sorrento. Once your ticket is booked, the rest of the day is easy.

How long to visit Naples?
Plan 3 to 4 days in Naples: it's long enough to cover the historic centre, the National Archaeological Museum, Spaccanapoli and the street food scene at a relaxed pace. With 2 days, stick to the centre and the museum, plus Pompeii or Herculaneum as a half-day trip. With 4 days or more, add Vesuvius, Capri or the Amalfi Coast; book Pompeii tickets online and use the Circumvesuviana train rather than a tour.
