Fun Family Day - Rome to Pompeii & Amalfi Coast - Ahmed was an outstanding driver and guide. He is engaging, polite and respectful. The day was long but we covered a great deal of Southern Italy and were able to spend a good amount of time in each area. The restaurant in Sorrento served excellent food with a comfortable ambiance. The Pompeii tour with Mafalda was excellent! The later time allowed us to see the area without large crowds. She was able to keep the interest of the kids (and us) with her outgoing personality. She was able to describe settings in Pompeii in a way that you could imagine how people lived in those times. Highly recommend it!

A very good essential tour for Pompeii for families - A good tour, the guide was obviously passionate about the subject and welcomed questions. Just FYI, you won’t see most of the site but will cover the most essential areas. It was hot so sunscreen, hats and water is recommended.

Great day in Positano and Pompeii - This was an amazing day! Ahmed was our driver and he was very informative about the locations we visited. He was very friendly and really took care of my family all day. We passed through Naples and Sorrento before stopping in Positano for lunch on the beach and some shopping then visited Pompeii in the afternoon. We opted for guided tour in Pompeii and it was very informative. I would highly recommend this trip and I hope you are lucky enough to get Ahmed as your driver.

This was an amazing tour.... - This was an amazing tour. Our guide Fabio was very knowledgable about the area and very open to interacting with us. He is a careful driver in those narrow streets on the Amalfi Coast and we appreciated that.

So beautiful - We were a group of four friends, and this private day trip was one of the best parts of our Italy vacation. We learned a lot in Pompeii, then relaxed by the sea in Amalfi. Our driver even stopped at a small scenic point we didn’t know about, so beautiful!

A fascinating tour - Pompeii was fascinating, I still can’t believe how well it’s preserved. The Amalfi Coast was peaceful and full of color. We had a nice gelato in Positano and took amazing photos. The private car made the whole experience super comfortable.

So worth it - We wanted to see more of Italy in one day, and this tour gave us just that. Pompeii was full of history and amazing ruins. After that, we went to Amalfi and had lunch by the sea. The driver was super kind and gave us time to stop for photos. So worth it!

A truly a great time - Our driver picked us up right from our hotel in Rome in a clean, comfortable car. The first stop was Pompeii, walking through the old streets, and it felt like going back in time. Then we drove along the Amalfi Coast… the views were stunning! Everything was smooth and relaxed.
