Additional Information
Our objective is to tailor the tour to your preferences, ensuring it is an experience you’ll never forget. This personalized tour, stretching over 9 hours, lets you explore two sites recognized as UNESCO World Heritage. It includes a visit to Pompeii, a city hidden under 20 feet of volcano ash after Mount Vesuvius erupted. A private driver will escort you around with an option for a guided tour or independent exploration. The drive will take you through the breathtakingly picturesque Amalfi Coast for photo sessions. Depending on your preference, stops can be made at Amalfi, Positano, Ravello or Sorrento during the tour. Generally, the itinerary fits in two coastal towns and Pompeii. However, we are open to adjusting as per your interests.
- One day is not enough to visit all the coast. We normally manage to stop in one or two of the villages. You will be free to decide with the support of your driver where would you prefer to stop and how long.
- If any group member does not will to walk in Pompeii there are some cafés and gift shops right in front of the ticket office
- Cruise ship passengers must provide the following information: ship name, docking time, disembarkation time and re-boarding time
- We recommend comfortable shoes for Pompeii. And sun gears during summertime.

Pompeii, Amali, and Ravello. - We had a wonderful day with Fabrizio. He was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, and I highly recommend him. We were picked up on Torte del Greco and dropped off in Naples.

Pompeii and Amalfi - Febrizio was a great guide! He is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the history of Pompeii! He took us to great views along the Amalfi Coast and had the chance to see the beauty of the towns including Sorrento. We highly recommend this tour!

Excellent Tour! - Fabrizio was an amazing tour guide. He was so great to mind our time schedule right from the start of our tour all the way to the end. He was an excellent planner of our itinerary. He was great with our children ages 10 & 12. He was engaging and informative. I think he also knew four languages! He knew any question our family threw at him. He gave us an extensive tour of Pompeii, Sorrento, and a view of the Amalfi Coast and our ship wasn’t even docked for very long! He was an amazing tour guide and I wouldn’t hesitate to refer my friends to him. He’s simply the best!

Great Experience - Great experience. Our driver, Stefano was a great driver on the scary narrow roads to the Amalfi Coast. He was very informative and made the long drives enjoyable. He was very polite and friendly. He gave some great tips on our stops to make best use of our time. Our stop times in Positano and Ravello were perfect. Viviana, our Pompei tour guide was very attentive. She was very knowledgeable and showed her passion for the beautiful site and it's history. She catered to our needs and we really enjoyed our time with her! Glad we decided on this tour! It was a perfect first day in Italy.

Great tour! Go at your own pace. Well worth the money. - Ciro met us at the cruise terminal. He was even 30 minutes early so we got an early start before 8am. Comfortable air conditioned van. Went to Positano first, he told us about things we were passing. Had an hour and 30 minutes there, then drove to Sorrento. FYI - Sorrento has less expensive souvenirs. We had an hour in Sorrento, we shopped and had a quick bite to eat. Then headed to Pompei. There was no line to get in at that point in the day (Saturday in July). We explored on our own and had 2 hours. Lots of driving but well worth it to see the amazing Amalfi coast on our own and not with a huge tour group.

Amazing Amalfi Coast Tour - Right from the very start of researching and then booking our tour, Giuseppe was fantastic and accommodating! He customized our tour based on our wishes taking us to small towns along the Amalfi Coast beautiful churches and a fantastic restaurant off the beaten path called Zio Peppe in Scala. We were a group of ten, so he arranged for another another driver, Gino, who was also great and knowledgeable. After lunch and a stop in Ravello our group split, half of us going to Pompeii and the rest continuing to tour the coastal towns. We went to Pompeii with Giuseppe, where he guided us expertly thru the ruins. Giuseppe is the best tour guide - do not hesitate to book him on your next trip to Amalfi or Rome!

Highly recommend! - My husband and I booked this tour per advice from our travel agent on our honeymoon. I’m so glad we did. Fabrizio was wonderful! He’s very knowledgeable and taught us so much about the area. He also takes time to get to know you and your preferences. We could not have been happier with the experience and would recommend this tour to anyone.

A can't miss trip in Italy! - We had a fantastic time with Fabrizio and this was a don't miss tour!!!
He had the answer to every question and my entire family including my two kids (8, 10) had a fabulous time at Pompeii and visiting different towns along the Amalfi coast. The private transportation was comfortable and it was one of our favorite activities we did in Italy. Grazie! We hope to come back--and ask for Fabrizio!!
