Ship price is the median "starting at" adult price of Royal Caribbean's excursions of that type. Independent price is the median per-person price of the top GetYourGuide results of the same type (checked 2026-11-02). Family of 4 multiplies the per-person gap by four; child prices are often lower on both sides. How we compare.
What to check when comparing
- City / island tour: City and island tours vary from short trolley loops to full-day drives, so compare durations too.
- Ruins / history: Ruins trips differ most in how far they go: a nearby site and a full-day mainland trip both count here.
Is it safe to book independently in Naples?
Ships here dock alongside. All-aboard is normally 30 minutes before departure on Royal Caribbean, Carnival, NCL and MSC (check your daily planner). Plan to be back at the pier at least 60 minutes before the ship sails.
- Ruins / history (3/5): Pompeii is about 40 minutes each way..
How far is the pier from the main sights?

Distances are measured from Stazione Marittima. Travel times are estimates for normal traffic, not including ferries or tender queues.
Stazione Marittima is in the city centre. Ferries to Capri and Sorrento leave from the terminal next door. City and ruins rows here only count independent day trips to Pompeii, Sorrento, Capri or the Amalfi Coast, which is what the ship sells.
