Naples is a vast city located on the western coast and is the third largest city in Italy. Naples is full of historical buildings, squares and churches plus a host of modern amenities and fantastic nightlife opportunities. Looming in the shadow of the legendary Mt. Vesuvius, this is a truly epic tourist destination.
Mount Vesuvius is an active Volcano which when it erupted in AD79 engulfed and subsequently encased the city of Pompeii in six meters of ash and pumice-stone. Abandoned ever since, Pompeii started to emerge when excavations began in the 18th century and since then, about three-fifths of the total area (the city walls had a perimeter of three kilometers) have been recovered. Early excavators took everything to the museum in Naples, but archaeologists since 1911 have left artifacts in place, making the more recently excavated areas the most interesting.
People travel from all over to walk the same steps of those who lived during ancient Roman times. Both destroyed and preserved by the volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius, this once lost city remains, offering a perfect snapshot of life 2000 years ago. With incredible attractions that illustrate the society that thrived here, Pompeii is a marvel and must-see.
The small town of Sorrento has stunning scenery and sits amid lemon and orange groves on the south side of the Bay of Naples. Its relaxed atmosphere is perfect for wondering around the cobbled streets and enjoying a drink in the cafe-lined square of Piazza Tasso.

What our customers say
"From the moment we booked our tour of Norway the service we have received from Motorhome Tours has been nothing short of 5*. From the time we met up in Folkestone to get us cross channel via a pre tour booking facility we knew we were onto a winner! Giles and Linda have made everyone on the tour very welcome and their knowledge and planning has been second to none. Campsites in stunning locations, a great atmosphere and camaraderie among the whole group plus lots of organised walks and visits to places of interest along the way which you can take or leave according to your own interests. Without doubt, we will be choosing Motorhome Tours for future holidays.... why wouldn't we? Amazing attention to detail, an easy going fun atmosphere plus none of the hassle of pre booking sites and planning routes yourself! Thank you Motorhome Tours for the most memorable and fun tour."Read more
"Currently on the Christmas Rally in Benicassim with Motorhome Tours and having the best time ever. Giles and Linda are excellent tour hosts and both genuinely nice people. They've taken everything we have thrown at them and keep smiling! There has been a perfect match between organised events/day trips and personal downtime. Looking forward to more adventures in the future!"Read more
"Well where do I start? From beginning to end (and still ongoing) we have had a marvellous time on this Norwegian Adventure with Giles and Linda and the amazing group of fellow travellers ❤️We’d always wanted to do this sort of journey but were not that confident booking ourselves. Linda and Giles’s meticulous planning and organising meant we could just enjoy the breathtaking scenery and join in the events without all the worry. They are a great couple who made everyone feel welcome, you could join in with as much or as little of the trips they planned . And as for our fellow travellers ? Well we’re finding it difficult to say goodbye ….some of us have joined forces on the journey home …today from 20 we are 6 ☹️ And many of us have booked again for another trip next year…think that says it all❤️ So thank you both for making the last 5 weeks such a blast 🤗 PS The girls say thankyou for all the treats and cuddles 🐶🐶❤️"Read more
"We would definitely recommend Motorhome tours for any escorted trips. Our hosts Giles and Linda are passionate about the service they provide and always go the extra mile to ensure your time away is as enjoyable as can be. We joined them on their recent Norway adventure where we had a fantastic 40 night experience. The routes were well planned together with quality campsites in great locations. Additional ideas for daily trips were provided via the Lyfshort app which they use so we were all connected and kept updated on activities or changes. We were free to do our own thing or join in with a group walks or drinks. We will definitely join Giles and Linda on another adventure soon and wish them well for their upcoming tours."Read more
"My first experience with motorhome tours Giles and Linda were excellent hosts. As a solo traveller I was a bit nervous but I was made to feel very welcome. Gained a lot of knowledge as I am new to the camping in a van life. I had a blast will be coming again."Read more
"First time on an escorted tour and wasn’t sure about it at first but from the moment we met Giles and Linda we were made very welcome and that set the theme trough out the tour the campsites I thought were carefully chosen, a mixture of large campsites to small campsites by a fjord, same as the activities there was never any pressure to go with the group you could pick and choose what you wanted to do. The group was a mixture of experienced Motorhomes to complete novices everybody helped each other if needed. Linda and Giles were the perfect host always there for you…...the question at the end of the tour is would we book another tour with Linda and Giles and the answer is yes definitely."Read more
"First time away at Christmas and this Tour is perfect. Activities for all, if you want them, or just enjoy your holiday. Met a great bunch of people, had lots of laughs, great food and too much to drink - happy days👍 We’ll definitely be back some where, some day. A perfect escape"Read more
"Had some anxieties about travelling abroad in our motorhome. However after reading the information about the rally and speaking with Giles, I signed up and have been very pleased with our experience. The days have flown past and having Giles and Linda organising events has made the rally more than we could have expected. Any concerns we’ve had have been resolved quickly by help from both Giles and Linda. I have no hesitation in recommending Motorhome Tours. Paula"Read more
