Highlights
  • Meta - This scenic stop in Meta allows you to take photos and have a memory of picturesque Sorrento!
    Meta rises about 111 meters above sea level and covers an area of about 2.5 km², which includes both coastal areas, with more than 800 meters of coastline, and mountainous areas, with the hamlet of Alberi, the 642-meter Mount Vico Alvano to the southeast, and part of the Camaldol Mountains
  • Li Galli - The Li Galli islands make up a very small archipelago between Capri and Positano, one of the most striking places not only in Campania but in the entire Mediterranean. Making up the archipelago are three islands, Gallo Lungo, La Rotonda and La Castelluccia, and together they integrate an extremely picturesque marine protected area.
  • Positano - Positano is perhaps a unique place in the world! It is a jewel of spontaneous architecture, set on rock overhanging the sea. Clusters of colorful, sometimes cubic-looking houses are built on often very steep steps down to the beach, connected by alleys and long flights of steps.
  • Sorrento - Legend has it that in its sea dwelt the mythical Sirens who tempted Ulysses with a melodious song.
    And still today to go to that sea - with blue and green reflections, in a thousand different shades according to the play of the sun - one can imagine that from the waves emerge - beautiful and persuasive - the Sirens.

But perhaps it is Sorrento a Siren who captivates and bewitches with the scents of the lemon and orange trees, with the olive trees with dark twisted trunks and silver leaves that move slowly, with a slight sound, to the wind coming from the sea, with the rocks born from the distant fury of a volcano.

  • Pompeii Archaeological Park - Pompeii is a city in Campania, located in the Gulf of Naples and on the slopes of the volcano Vesuvius. It is a city with a very ancient origin: it began as an Oscan settlement, was later inhabited by the Samnites and then, starting in the first century BC, conquered by the Romans.

City buried by the eruption of Vesuvius. Today it is known as the city where there is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. The Roman city was in fact buried by lava following the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The lava and ash were a kind of cover that allowed the city to maintain itself over the centuries and be protected from the elements; for that very reason the city has remained intact and can be visited today.

Note: The remaining time is for the round trip and the time spent between attractions.

Excellent service - Vito was our tour guide for the trip today that went from the cruise to Amalfi coast and Pompeii. The trip was amazing and very informative and Vito went above to help me take pictures since i a solo traveler and he helped me figure out all my questions. I would book this tour again and I’m glad I had him as a tour guide!! Definitely book!!

Efficient and well-organized service - We had a great day with Ciro - he was so helpful and always provided WhatsApp locations for us as a meeting point. He even opened and closed the doors for us at every stop - a real gentleman. The tour itself is helpful if helpful if you’re short on the time, but you do very much need at least three hours in Pompeii to even see the highlights. Positano is given the correct amount of time, as is Sorrento. If you’re keen on seeing all the sights in quick fashion, this is the perfect excursion for you.

Amazing day tour of Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast - Amazing day spent exploring Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast! Our driver and guide, Giuseppe was fantastic. He was charming and knowledgeable as he drove us to each destination. This was a small group tour and my family of 4 was placed with another family who happen to be on the same cruise as us. We toured the coast from the comfort of an air conditioned van! We enjoyed every moment of this picturesque tour and only wish we had more time to explore and shop in Sorrento and Positano! Will definitely return and will look for CiaoNaples Tours next time we visit.

Not enough time to properly visit Pompeii - I think there is not enough time to do this, we visited two cities (1hr each) then went to pompeii (2hrs), Pompeii is likely to need 6+ hrs to do it right, ended up very rush. Driver was nice guy but his English was very limited

Run Away - Do Not Book This Taxi Ride! - The tour we booked was supposed to start at 8am, we were on a cruise ship and the company kept calling, telling us we had to meet at 7:15am. We had to rush to get breakfast and they kept calling and sending text messages that they were going to leave without us. This was not a tour by any stretch of imagination. The driver gave us no insight while on the road and just dumped us off and told us to meet back here in one hour or two hours. We didn’t even know where to go or what to see, no information was provided at any of the stops. This was more like a boring expensive taxi ride with 8 people in the van. The tour operator advised the night before that they were going to purchase tickets for our Pompeii entry and we could reimburse the driver. That never happened and once again we were dropped near the entry of the Pompeii area but didn’t even know where to go to purchase tickets. We went to explore on our own for about an hour and had to get back to the ship for departure. At this point we decided that we could not rely on the tour driver and had to pay for a taxi out of pocket to insure we got back to the ship on time. My recommendation… Do Not Book This Tour! Get one that has a boat tour of the Amalfi and Sorrento coast. If you want to see Pompeii, pre-purchase your tickets and get a guide!
