Not worth the money

Erin_A, Dec 2023
The driver was a very nice person and drove safely. For $600+ for two people, I expected more. We reserved for 7am but received a last minute note the night before saying the driver would arrive at 9am. While I expressed disappointment over this, I agreed to make the adjustment to our schedule. However, at 7:51 the driver texted and while we would have appreciated to leave earlier originally, we made plans to wake up later and have an extended dinner the night before. Because of the unexpected early arrival, we did not have time to eat breakfast before leaving the hotel. I do not blame the driver as I believe he was misinformed by his management so we carried on, although slightly frustrated and hungry for the first hours of our trip. As stated, the driver was very nice and did a good job with the road, although he did get into a minor collision with another driver while we were in the car. Luckily, it did not cause delay on the trip and everyone was OK. Almost all shops and restaurants were closed in Positano when we arrived and so while it was beautiful, there was no shopping to be had and only one option to grab food. We also had to walk significant down and back up hills as the driver could not (or would not, unsure which) drive the vehicle closer to the bottom of the city where he recommended we go. Our second stop was Amalfi which thankfully had many more shops and food places open, but with only an hour for stopping here you had to make a choice: food or shopping. The last stop was Pompeii and unfortunately there was no offer for help to secure a tour guide and with only 2 hours, it was definitely impossible to get through anywhere close to the good view of the ruins. We had to be very hurried and didn’t know much about where to go or what to do so we winged it. Again, I want to emphasize the driver was very nice, but there was no help for recommendations for food to eat when we did stop, and with so little time, we forfeited eating most of the day in order to stick to a tight schedule. He was very kind and unexpectedly gave us a large water bottle to share after Pompeii that was very refreshing. Overall, I think you are better off to rent a car and do this drive yourself.

Dear valued customer, We always double check with our guests the day before with a text message and being a private tour we have given you options to start at any time including 7am, in the same text message we also offered to arrange a tour guide for Pompeii on your behalf. thank you for taking time to write such nice review wishing you and your family health and prosperity

Great way to see it all

Courtney_B, Jul 2023
The drive was the most amazing part of this - the winding road with incredible views as far as the eye can see. Also it makes the Amalfi coast accessible. We were able to visit (briefly) Positano, Amalfi and Ravello and see what they each have to offer. Our driver customized our trip for us, so that we spent more time in those places and just about an hour in Pompei. He was incredibly friendly and shared interesting history about each area.

Highly recommended day-trip

Ralf_K, Nov 2022
It was a truly memorable experience. Our guide Carmine was well organized, knowledgeable, entertaining and super flexible. He made extra stops whenever we wanted and gave us as much time as we wanted to explore the Amalfi coast. For Pompeii, they organized us a private guide (get Grace if you can!) for a very insightful two-hour-tour through the impressive ancient ruins. And pick-up and drop-off in Naples worked perfectly as well. Plus, we were lucky with the weather, considering it was mid-November. It is a great time though to avoid the massive crowds of high season. A highly recommended day-trip.

Pompeii Car Service was great!

Safari49124201533, Nov 2019
John with Pompeii Car Service was fantastic. We was very flexible with what we wanted to see in the Napoli region. He also offered a few recommendations and added an hour stop in Sorrento. It’s definitely worth the money! One word of advice - do your research on what you want to see in the area and they’ll do their best to accommodate. We’re very pleased!

Pompeii & Amalfi Coast as good as Peanut Butter & Jelly

Bill M, Jul 2019
As part of our cruise, we opted for the Full day Pompeii & Amalfi Coast as a private excursion. Having done plenty of cruise ship excursions in the past, we really wanted to maximize our time in port and check off our two must see places: Pompeii and Amalfi Coast. This tour did not disappoint and was one of the highlights of our Med cruise. While the price of the private tour may be a little a more than your standard cruise excursion, we found it well worth the investment. Our guide (Francesco) contacted us prior to the day of our excursion, letting us know that he would be waiting outside the cruise port holding a sign with our name on it. Francesco recommended starting our day at the Amalfi Coast since the traffic can be crazy in the afternoon. We had lunch at one of the towns and then Pompeii later in the afternoon. Our driver (Francesco) arranged for a private guide for the Pompeii (~120 e) which was worth it. Francesco was awesome. Very clean car, and felt safe the entire time as he told us the history of the area and navigated through the curves and turns along Amalfi. Tips: - Bring good walking shoes since many of the towns can be quite hilly - We opted for a quick lunch to take in more of the sights - Bring ~120 e if you wish to have a private guide for Pompeii (did not see this as an option for booking) - Pompeii was hot, but having the guide helped focus on the highlights (its so big you could spend a day there) Tour company was thru
