Really fun tour - This was a fantastic tour and great experience, Numa is absolutely exeptional as a guide and is a smooth driver. Giac will give you some serious laughs with his humour. Both guys have done some serious research to find the best spots for, sightseeing, for driving and for lunch. You hardly even notice the drive time because you will have great conversation with them. Genuine down to earth guys.

Excellent day trip to Pompeii & Sorento - Josh was an excellent driver and took care of us throughout the day. He was very helpful, taking photos at scenic stops and getting meals. The breakfast and lunch were very good. The van was very nice and clean, with Josh ensuring we were comfortable.
Enza was an excellent tour guide at Pompeii. She was very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job explaining and sharing information about the specific buildings and how the people of Pompeii lived. We were very happy we opted to take the guided tour.
It was a great day trip.

Fabulous! - This experience was excellent. The predetermined restaurants were not the normal tourist locations. They were local, authentic, and the food was delicious. There is no possible way we would have found these restaurants on our own as they were in obscure, but excellent locations. We ate lunch on a balcony right on the water next to a towering cliff. The view was amazing! The guided tour was fascinating. I highly recommend.

Beautiful trip to Pompeii and the coast - Absolutely lovely tour. Very knowledgeable drivers/guides. Giacomo brought to local spots for morning espresso and pastries as well as a beautiful spot on the coast for lunch. I wish we had more time because it was so amazing, but a wonderful day trip option because they keep you on track seeing as many highlights as you can in a short amount of time. My only note for future visits is that the Pompeii’s artifacts are mostly all kept in a museum in Naples so keep that in mind when deciding where to visit. I loved seeing the actual place but would have loved to have planned to see the artifacts as well. I absolutely recommend this tour!
