Our driver, Eugene, was more than fantastic! We had only a short time in port while on a cruise ship and he took us to the town of Ravello. There we enjoyed a wonderful meal with amazing views and had some free time. Eugene was informational and funny and we had the best time with him. I would recommend this to anyone!

I booked this experience not knowing what to expect, but it was truly excellent. Eugenio, our driver and tour guide, was knowledgeable, courteous, and funny. It was a rainy day at first but he made the best of it. We drove from Naples to positano, sorrento, and Pompeii and back to Naples. The restaurant recommended by Eugenio in Sorrento was beautiful and the food was delicious. We could have stayed a day in each location but it was enough to get a taste of the cities and want to return. Would highly recommend this and Eugenio!

Dear Allison,
thank you so much for your kind words — I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
I’m very happy to hear that, even with limited time in port, you were able to enjoy such a beautiful and relaxing day in Ravello. Making the most of every moment is exactly what we focus on, especially for cruise guests.
Eugene will be delighted to read your feedback. He perfectly represents our approach: not just a driver, but a knowledgeable and engaging host, able to combine information, humor, and attention to detail to create a memorable experience.
Your mention of the lunch with a view in Ravello says it all — those are the moments we want our guests to remember.
Thank you again for your recommendation. It was a real pleasure having you with us, and I hope to welcome you back in the future for another unforgettable day along the Amalfi Coast or beyond.
Warm regards,
Mario

The tour was stellar! Our guide Diego was excellent--friendly, attentive, and accommodating throughout the experience. His professionalism and deep knowledge made the tour incredibly engaging and informative. He was also an exceptional driver, ensuring our comfort and prioritizing our safety at all times. Would highly recommend!
In addition, Giovanna, our tour guide for Pompeii, was also superb! Her warm communication style, passion, and extensive knowledge of Pompeii made our first visit to the ancient city highly memorable. We would enthusiastically recommend Giovanna as well!

A wonderful day on the Amalfi coast expertly squired by Eugene topped off by
a very competent tour of Pompeii by Giovanna.
And a shoutout to Mario for making it all happen.

My parents, my almost 10 year old niece and I used this company for a private tour from Naples to Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii. Our day was absolutely exceptional with both our driver, Diego, and our Pompeii guide, Marcello, who the company set us up with! They were both awesome! They both really exceeded my expectations! All of us said how wonderful they were! Diego, our driver, was so friendly, funny, and accommodating, and really ensured we had the best day! He even went out and got us schviadel while we were in our Pompeii tour. Marcello, our Pompeii guide, did a phenomenal job showing us around Pompeii, and accommodated my mom who doesn’t get around as fast as the rest of us. He was definitely an expert in archeology and very passionate about his work. We really had an all around exceptional experience, from the owner, Mario, who checked in after our tour, to both Diego and Marcello. Do not hesitate to book this company and ask for Diego and Marcello!

We had a blast with our tour guide and helped feed our hungry kids and took us to an amazing restaurant near Pompeii. We enjoyed all the stops. Our driver also helped us and arranged and guide for us in Rome who was also amazing. Picked us up and dropped us off on time!
Scott_L, Aug 2025
Great experience. Mario was very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The guide at Pompeii was also very knowledgeable, patient and friendly he know all the spots in Pompeii to get the most for our experience.
Karen, Aug 2025
It was a great day. The Amalfi coast was amazing! Lots of shopping. We also went to Pompeii. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable.
Eric_G, Jul 2025
This tour was amazing and I cannot recommend it enough. This company truly cares about giving you the best experience possible. Our guide Eugenio was extremely professional, knowledgeable, funny, and kind! We had an issue come up during our tour and he went above and beyond to make sure our family was taken care of.
The tour of the Amalfi coast, Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii is perfect for those who only have a few days in the region. We felt as though we got just enough of a taste of what these places are like. I'd honestly give this tour a perfect rating.

El tour nos encanto. A pesar del corto tiempo que teniamos para hacer el recorrido, debido a que el crucero solo estaria en el puerto unas pocas horas, nuestra conductora Maria organizo el tiempo de tal forma que conocimos la costa Amalfitana, e hicimos una parada en el hermoso pueblo de Amalfi; para luego dirigirnos a Pompeya, que era otro lugar que no queriamos dejar de conocer. Ademas, nuestra guia privada en Pompeya, Maria, nos encanto; la pasion con la que nos transmitio la historia y los eventos ocurridos en ese entonces, nos hacia imaginar lo que estaba ocurriendo en el momento de la tragedia. Tambien debemos agradecer al Sr Mario, quien estuvo en contacto con nosotros todo el tiempo, pendiente de que tuvieramos la mejor experiencia al conocer esta hermosa region. Sin duda es un tour muy recomendable, y con gusto volveriamos a utilizar sus servicios.
We loved the tour. Despite the short time we had to complete the tour, as the cruise ship would only be in port for a few hours, our driver, Maria, organized our time so that we could explore the Amalfi Coast and make a stop in the beautiful town of Amalfi. We then headed to Pompeii, which was another place we didn't want to miss. Furthermore, our private guide in Pompeii, Maria, enchanted us; the passion with which she conveyed the history and events that occurred at the time made us imagine what was happening at the time of the tragedy. We must also thank Mr. Mario, who was in contact with us the entire time, ensuring that we had the best experience while exploring this beautiful region. It is definitely a highly recommended tour, and we would gladly use their services again.

Amazing experience. The driver was very fluent in English and very knowledgeable about the locations. We really enjoyed the time at Pompeii.
Bradley_N, May 2025
Max our driver/guide was very nice and helpful with our trip! We enjoyed all the sites, Giavonna toured us around Pompeii and was also super friendly and informative , recommend this team!
Ronald_P, May 2025
Mario was amazing! He did a great job, he was very informative and knowledgeable. Giovanna was awesome taking us around Pompeii. They both went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. They are both very personable and we enjoyed our time with them as much as we enjoyed our tours. We went to Sorrento & Positano in the morning. Mario stopped for some great photo ops for us. We also stopped at a roadside lemon stand and had a fresh lemon sorbet, which was DELICIOUS!!! Pompeii was so interesting, lots of history there. It was a great tour!!!
Sherrie_P, May 2025
First of all, Mario, the person I dealt with to book and prepare for the tour is the absolute best! He is very thorough and went above and beyond to ensure everything was arranged and even handled the tickets for Pompeii. I did not have to worry about anything as he had it covered. We were 3 adults and 3 kids and our tour was on Easter and Mario surprised the kids with giant Chocolate Easter eggs...how special and considerate. Mario also arranged a guide for Pompeii, Giovanna, and she was superb and catered specifically to our group ensuring we all had a great tour and were comfortable throughout. Finally, Eugene was with us for the day driving us, and showed us the Amalfi Coast and Sorrento, and took us to a small Olive Oil store/factory when we expressed interest in olives. He was a star and we felt completely safe with him behind the wheel.
Anyway, I very much rely on reviews when booking tours but rarely write them myself. In this case, I knew I must write a review as this company is stellar and will make your time in Naples the absolute best. No worries at all when booking with this group.

Great tour of Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii. Full day, guides very knowledgeable and great drivers.
Great tour.
Matt_A, Apr 2025
Luca did a great job on our tour, as did Enzo on our private tour of Pompeii. Don’t hesitate to book.
Maureen_E, Apr 2025
We almost canceled our tour because the forecast was 85%chance of rain. We are so glad we didn't cancel! The rain was only intermittent and didn't interrupt our tour at all. The sun was shining by mid morning. Alex was a wonderful guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable and so patient with the driving. We would not have been able to navigate the roads without him. Positano and Sorrento were lovely and we also took an incredible walk through the ruins at Herculaneum. Alex was easy to communicate with. He was always on time, waiting for us at the designated spots. Highly recommend a private tour with Alex! We had a memorable and enjoyable day.
Desiree_S, Apr 2025
Fabulous guides and best experience. Saw and learned so much in comfort and with little time. Such a safe, professional company. Highly recommend.
Kristen_B, Mar 2025
Our Amalfi Coast driver Eugene was amazing. Informative, patient and funny! He picked us up seamlessly at the Naples train station and got us back there with a little time to spare for our trip back to Rome.
The tour company reached out via Whatsapp and worked out any details before hand.
We highly recommend this tour.
Joni_W, Mar 2025
We had the absolute best day with Alessandro! He was super knowledgeable and fun to listen to. He stopped and let us take pictures where it was beautiful and suggested places to eat and things to do which were all fabulous. I loved getting to know him and hear about his family life and what it’s like to live in Italy. The van was excellent, clean and comfortable. Worth every penny. People in this part of Italy are so kind. Our driver should get a huge fat raise for making this the best day on our tour of Italy. Thanks again!!!
Benjamin_G, Jan 2025
Our travel with Mario (the arranger) and Alex (the tour guide and driver) were excellent! We traveled to Pompei, Amalfi and Positano from Sorrento. Tour lasted from 8am until 4:30pm.
Manohar_N, Dec 2024
I would have given 5 stars except that we did not like our guide at Pompeii. She was more like a school teacher taking us on a field trip. Was not funny nor engaging. We loved our guides and drivers who took us to Positano and Sorrento and drove us to Pompeii. This day trip was perfect to cover all 3 tourist spots. We had ample free time and at the same time the drivers/ guides explained to us all we needed to know about Italian culture and history and where we were headed to. Our drivers/guides were Mario and Alexandro and I would rate both of them 5 stars.
Response from Host, Dec 2024
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m truly happy to hear that you loved your experience exploring Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii with Alexandro and me. We both thoroughly enjoyed accompanying your group and are thrilled that the day trip left such a positive impression on you.
Regarding your experience with the guide in Pompeii, I genuinely regret that it didn’t fully meet your expectations. Pompeii is indeed an extremely technical and historically dense archaeological site, and our guides are all highly qualified professionals with degrees in Archaeology and History. Their mission is to ensure visitors leave with a deep understanding of the site’s cultural and historical significance.
That said, I completely understand that each guide has its own personality and approach to storytelling, and sometimes finding the right balance for a diverse group—especially one that includes both adults and children—can be challenging.
Your feedback is invaluable, and I’ll make sure to share it with our team to ensure we continue refining our approach to meet the varied needs of our guests.
Thank you once again for your kind words about Alexandro and me. We are honored to have been part of your experience on the Amalfi Coast and hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back in the future for another unforgettable adventure.
Warm regards,
Mario

Wonderful tour with Mario. Excellent service. Mario arranged a private tour for us in Pompei with an archeologist who was involved in the dig. Excellent tour all around. Well worth the money
Paulina_G, Oct 2024
The driver was amazing and helped us a lot in exploring the Amalfi Coast. He recommended places to visit and later took us to Pompeii, where we met an extraordinary guide who made our tour very interesting.
James_H, Oct 2024
Mario Frenna was an excellent tour guide who tailored the day's experience to our interests. We would highly recommend his services for any type of tours in the Amalfi Coast and Naples areas. We are keeping his business card for future use!
Kathy_E, Oct 2024
Our tour guide Diago was amazing!!! His knowledge, personality and overall demeanor was superb. I HIGHLY recommend booking this tour especially with Diago. As for the sites, I feel we had a good amount of time at each site to get a taste. In the future I would like more time in Sorrento. We all thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The vehicle was immaculate, Diago had cold waters waiting for us.
Joanna_M, Oct 2024
Out of all the tours out of so many in our Mediterranean cruise trip this is probably one of our favourites. Diego, our driver was really top notch he was on time and really gave us so many information, facts, history about Napoli, the towns of Amalfi, Italian culture, and so much more.
We were only in Naples for about less than 11 hours and we were able to explore a little of the Amalfi Coast plus Positano and Sorrento. He gave us ample time to explore both towns, we were able to avoid the crowds and traffic in Positano (due to Diego being so knowledgable) and we were able to shop, eat, walk around Sorrento for about 2 hours.
He took us to Pompeii for our final stop and we were able to explore for a good hour and a half. Good time to see the major landmarks (Pompeii in itself needs 12 hours or more, even days to explore)
Highly recommend this tour cause you really get your money's worth for such a short amount of time, and plus you get to have a driver who is fun to talk to and is happy to answer all of your request and questions. I would definitely contact them again in the future cause they made me fall in love with amazing Napoli
Kristelle_C, Oct 2024
The best tour and tour guide! Mario was amazing! He was knowledgeable, friendly, organized and an experienced guide. I couldn't recommend this tour more! We loved it!
Response from Host, Oct 2024

What sets us apart is that our team consists of certified driver-guides, not just drivers.

Grazie mille and warm regards,
Mario

Our private tour was extremely wonderful. Our driver, Fabio was an excellent guide and driver. He kept our group well informed about the history
of Italy and what to expect for the day and we managed to see all that we wanted even with the traffic. Our guide, Paolo for our POMPEII tour was GREAT! He had a wealth of knowledge about the history of Pompeii and he answered our questions with such enthusiasm and passion. Overall, our tour was AMAZING and that is because of both Fabio and Paolo. GRAZIE to both of you! Thank you Viator for setting us up with this wonderful tour company "VISIT AMALFI COAST"
Response from Host, Sep 2024
Dear Paulette,
Thank you so much for your incredible review! We are truly delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful experience with both Fabio and Paolo. They take great pride in sharing the rich history and beauty of Italy, and it’s fantastic to know they were able to make your day so memorable, even with the challenges of traffic.
At VisitAmalficoast.com, we believe that a truly unforgettable tour comes from the knowledge, passion, and professionalism of our guides. Fabio and Paolo are not just drivers or entertainers, but licensed experts who deeply understand the history and culture of this beautiful region. We know that choosing professionals like us ensures that you don't just see the sights, but also learn the stories and heritage behind them—something that viral "social media drivers" can’t offer.
Thank you for recognizing the importance of choosing experienced guides who are passionate about sharing the true beauty and history of our land. We’re so glad that we could make your trip to Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast extraordinary, and we look forward to welcoming you back for more enriching experiences in the future!
