Answer 1

if ur going all the way to pompeii from rome it would be better to spend the night in the area & get 2 days out of your trip w/ the overnight.  it takes at least 3 hrs to get there & 3 to get back to rome....maybe more depending on the train or who's driving...

if there's a group of you you can negotiate a better price w/ this shuttle which goes down & back the same day...when you compare the cost of shuttle to train + time spent transferring by train you may as well get the shuttle.....

Answer 3

There are organized tours from Rome that include Pompeii, but you can easily do this on your own by train. Take the train from Rome to Naples - the Eurostar takes about 2 hours and costs 20 euro each way if you can get the Amica fare (25 euro if only the standard fare is available.  There's one at 6:35 am that arrives in Naples at 8:38.

In Naples, you need to transfer to the Circumvesuviana train and go to the Pompei Scavi stop. You can find the schedule here: http://www.vesuviana.it/Reteeorari/Ferro... It's a short walk from the station to the ruins.  or if you have a big enough group, you may be interested in: http://www.too-to-train.it/

Here are things to see and do in the area: http://www.pompeii-food-and-drink.org/ar... I recommend Herculaneum.
