Customer Reviews
10/2025. Went on the tour loved every minute. Marius was our tour guide. He very knowledgeable and personable. He made the day. You have a lot of free time in both areas. Highly recommend this tour.
Long day but worth it for everything you get to see! Marius was a wonderful guide and shared tons of great information, both about what to expect on the tour and the history of the area
Our tour guide, Flavio, was outstanding! The locations are beautiful. The amount of time spent in Positano (2 hrs) and Amalfi (45 mins) were too short in comparison to all the travel time there and back from Rome. The water taxi to the locations was lovely but overall, I would have enjoyed a day or two rather than a day trip.
