Boat tour of Amalfi and Positano from Sorrento

Carmela was a wonderful guide, very knowledgeable about the site and we felt that everything important was covered even on such a hot day, had an amazing time

Our guide Hugo was very knowledgeable and made sure we got the most out of our time on the island. The island is beautiful and the chair lifts were a great recommendation

Mariana and Sam were a great team, as guide and driver, we had an amazing experience visiting the towns and being able to swim in the sea at various sites, our teenage children had a lovely time seeing the fish, would definitely recommend.

We booked this trip through our hotel direct with the company. We were collected from our hotel and from beginning to end we were kept well informed of events by our Guide who was excellent with everyone, even the children, keeping them interested around Pompeii especially. We did not feel rushed in any way. Our Guide we felt was particularly knowledgeable and gave us some free time at the end to look around Pompeii a little, although time did not allow for long. Points to note though: we booked/prepaid a lunch but it was very poor: a salad to start with (in our case four lettuce leaves) and a choice of four mains - we chose pizza which was just a tomato sauce on the pizza bread, however the sweet was small but nice. We were given one drink with the meal but had to pay for another. This meal was approx 20 euros each - really not worth the money but there are little options to eat elsewhere on this trip. Service at the restaurant, whilst quick for the amount of people who had arrived, certainly was not with a smile. After this we were taken to a place at the bottom of Vesuvius for limoncello tasting - something not many from the trip appreciated (and not on the itinerary). The drive up to Vesuvius is steep (obviously) and windy, so be warned if you get travel sick. Near the top you have to stop/park and then go through the entrance to Vesuvius (not particularly friendly gate staff) from there you are on foot up to the top of Vesuvius, which is a dusty steep exhausting walk with no shade. There are drink areas at the top. The coach drivers are amazing driving on these roads. The coach was extremely comfortable and all air conditioned, and as mentioned our Guide and coach driver were great! I would definitely recommend this trip, just be mindful of the 'lunch', tasting stop off (not mentioned on our itinerary) and the extremely steep dusty walk to the top. I would not advise anyone with breathing difficulties to do this walk. There is no where else to go at this point if you decide not to walk up Vesuvius. The coaches park all along the road for return - you have to walk down the road to find your Guide/coach. All in all though a great experience - certainly made better with our Guide. A much relaxed approach to Pompeii and Vesuvius in the crowds. The trips are definitely worth it.
