Pippo and Roberta were both excellent. Pippo especially was great and went the extra mile for us, sourcing entrance tickets, supplying lemoncelo, and generally amusing us. My one note of caution - and this is entirely my fault for not reading smallprint - is that although clearly called a tour of Vesuvius, Pompei and lunch, none of those are included in the actual price. You are paying for an excellent guide and driver/car combo but not the experiences themselves.
A memorable day out from Sorrento! Driver Alberto was our host - full of information and great to talk with. Giada was our guide at Pompeii and we learned so much from her. Two hours there barely scratches the surface. Some initial problem with the Vesuvius tickets, but the Eurolimo staff, including Nello, were very helpful with this. Climbing the uphill 1/2 mile to the volcano rim requires some exertion, but it's worth it. Lovely winery (Casa Setara) after, with a great lunch. Not an inexpensive day but one we will long remember.
Both driver Alberto and Private Pompeii Tour Guide Caterina was excellent. We were a group of 4 and they arranged a Mercedez V class, so it was spacious. There was some confusion during pick up about tour guide arrangement but it got resolved when Alberto called their office. Alberto gave us bottles of water and reminded us to stay hydrated for the tour and the hike. He also helped us cross the busy road so we can take nice Sorrento scenery selfies. Caterina gave us a wealth of information, moved swiftly in front of all the other tour queues, and guided us to clean no queue restrooms. We skipped the winery (nondrinkers) and opted to have a nice sit down lunch suggested by the tour operator. You really need that lunch break after the hike. I got my own entrance tickets to Pompeii and Mt. V, but I would suggest having it as an option to be included in the tour. I had difficulty acquiring Mt. V tickets online through the official website so had to buy from third party, which wasn’t emailed to me for download until the day before the tour. We had a great day. We used the same company to arrange our transfer from Naples and another full day trip to Matera+Bari.
This was an excellent day of seeing many sights. Our guide for Pompeii was excellent. She showed us all the important spots and gave excellent information about each. Then on to Mt. Vesuvius for a great hike. The trail is all gravel, so go gripping shoes are helpful. After a little exercise we were driven to a winery for lunch and a little wine tasting. What a wonderful day and great way to end the day at the winery. I highly recommend this tour.
We booked our tour with Eurolimo as they boast positive reviews all round. Our day started off with a tour of the Pompeii ruins and followed by a beautiful scenic drive to Mt Vesuvius with fantastic panoramas of the city. We were then transported to a world renown winery where we were fortunate enough to sample some of Sorrento’s finest wines with an unbelievably gorgeous view. Pippo was our driver for the day and he really went out of his way to make our experience memorable. His superior knowledge of the city, and history that goes with it, made our day an unforgettable experience that we recommend to everyone touring the city! Pippo made us laugh at every turn and brought the city’s history alive. We will never forget our tour thanks to Pippo! Cinque Stella!
We had a great tour with Eurolimo! Very accommodating company, super responsive when emailing about options for the day with Pompeii, Vesuvius and winery timing. Alberto was our driver and gave us great information along the way, and made sure we were taken care of throughout the day. They set us up with our tour guide for Pompeii, Ornella, and she was amazing! We requested a child friendly guide since we have kids 7, 12, and 14 and she was wonderful with the kids but also gave interesting info for the adults. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel in Naples and taken care of the entire day. Highly recommend booking a day with them!
We met Pippo, our private driver for the first time today. He was so nice and knowledgeable. Pompeii was our first stop. He got us connected to our private tour guide for Pompeii. She was amazing and knew so many details about the buried city. After our tour of Pompeii, Pippo drove us up to the top of Mt. Vesuvias. He made us feel very safe while driving up the curvy and narrow roads while explaining what ea h statue represented. Pippo is also very funny, which made the tour even more enjoyable. After Mt. Vesuvias, Pippo took us to a vineyard. We felt very special all day and could not have asked for a better experience.
We had an amazing time on our tour! Pippo was the best host we could imagine. He was ready for us when we arrived, and immediately put smiles on our faces. Pippo was taking us to our first stop at Mt. Vesuvius when we realized we didn’t book our tickets correctly for the excursion. Pippo made several phone calls and was able to get our problem solved and not miss any part of our day. He took us on a beautiful drive to Mt. Vesuvius, explaining some history of Italy and pointing out landmarks along the way. He was very passionate about his work and educated us about what we were seeing. Pippo truly felt like a friend to us. He never made us feel rushed and wanted us to enjoy every second of our day, which we did. He also arranged a last minute tour guide for us while we visited Pompei. Pippo went above and beyond for us and helped us have an amazing experience. I really hope Pippo knows how special he is and what he meant to us. He was a huge part of us having such a wonderful experience and we will never forget our time with him.
Pippo is amazing!!! He picked us up from our hotel and drove us to Pompeii. During the drive, he shared his knowledge about the region and what we could expect. The private guide was waiting for us at Pompeii. He took us around the sites and shared detailed information on what we were seeing. The hike to Vesuvius will make you sweat but it is well worth it once you see the views from the top. We had a perfect day and could see for miles! The winery was a perfect ending to the afternoon. The wines were amazing and the atmosphere/views spectacular!! This is a must do for anyone wanting a private experience.
Five stars and then some. Pippo was our driver and he made the day!!! Shared his knowledge about the area with us and overall engaged in a delightful conversation. The guide at Pompeii was a must-have to truly appreciate the site. The hike up Vesuvius was challenging but the views from the top are well worth the sweat. The winery had amazing wines and good was good.
PIPPO was absolute perfection!! He’s been our favorite part of the Amalfi coast. He is a great host, he had our best interests at heart and a true gem. Thank you for making our trip so memorable Pippo! Oh, also, the Pompeii trip and winery was fantastic!
Hard to put into words how wonderful our experience was with Pippo. He is the most dynamic, engaging, knowledgeable, and funny driver that I have ever driven with on a tour. I would recommend him to anyone that ever asks for a driver. Pippo went over and above to accommodate our group and make sure that we had a great time. His recommendations and the little extra spots he showed us were fantastico! Thank you to him for a great time and being such a great person!
I can't say enough about how amazing Eurolimo is. I was working with Nello who is the owner and I booked the Pompeii/Mt. Vesuvius with wine tasting tour for a group of 6 of us. The tour was phenomenal, Pippo was our driver. He was friendly, professional and a pleasure to ne around. Gennaro was out tour guide and he was extremely informative and pleasant. The food and service at the winery was outstanding. I had researched this tour with many different companies and I am so happy I used Eurolimo.
Maybe the highlight of our trip. The company was very helpful and responsive to all my questions beforehand. Our driver Pippo was great, friendly and giving us lots of information about the area. Book this tour you won’t regret it.
This day was everything we had hoped it would be. We started at Pompeii with an excellent tour guide. He was fun, engaging, and answered all our questions. Next we did the hike to the Mt Vesuvius rim. We really enjoyed the walk up (great views all the way up) and it wasn't super crowded on the day we went. We would totally do that again. Next it was on to the winery and we felt that the wine and food was worth the price. The staff was super attentive and it was a relaxing end to our day. We really enjoyed our driver Alberto and on the way back to our hotel he popped into a business where they make limoncello, did a little tasting, and bought some flavored chocolates. Great Day, Great Tours!
Sort of a must do this at least once type of thing. Check your level of fitness though, it’s an all uphill walk, sandy rocky paths. You can take as long or as short as you like to walk keeping your own pace, and arrive with a bottle of water it’s a bit dusty too. The views from above at the craters lip are beautiful as you look back down at old lava flows and at the village below. And knowing you’re walking the crater of a live volcano is inspiring as you will occasionally see a wisp of smoke here and there. It’s worth mentioning there is a small refreshment area at the top for beverages.
We spent 2 incredible days in the vicinity of Naples (Pompeii, Vesuvius, Massa, Positano), courtesy of Eurolimo. Many thanks to the driver Pippo and Jessica, who made our trip.
This tour was incredible, I highly recommend! Every minute of the experience was incredible - our tour guide at Pompei (Gennaro) was the perfect mix of knowledgeable and funny to keep us entertained. Our lunch at the winery was delicious and our drivers were very kind and efficient. This tour was a dream come true!
We had a great time on this tour - would highly reccomend. Angelo was our driver for the day and he was very safe, effecient and spoke good English. He and Arianna, our tour guide took us to Pompeii first with a small group of other couples where we introduced to our Pompei tour guide, Mario. He was incredible! He was so informative and had so much knowledge about Pompet as well as a good sense of humour! The length of the tour was perfect, not too long nor too rushed. We were then taken to a beautiful vineyard for lunch where we informed about the wine making process whilst walking through the vineyard before eating some incredible lunch and trying 3 different types of wines. Next was our hike up Vesuvius Mt. Angelo drove like a trooper and we can reassure that the hike is worth the view at the top! Wear sensible footwear and maybe a jacket as it was very windy! Throughout the day Arianna spoke fantastic English and kept us well informed as to the next happenings etc. Overall we had a truely brilliant day and had a great time with the other couples on our tour. Thank you!
Our driver for the day was Pippo and he was absolutely amazing! So patient with us for picture stops, explaining the history of the different areas (Pompeii and Vesuvius), cracking jokes, great clean van, and very good English. He stopped off at limoncello stands, souvenir stands, and for bathroom breaks throughout the day. We’ll be recommending him to all our friends and family if they come to Sorrento!
Pippo provided an amazing day, could not have been better! He was super patient with us, took us to special stops for limoncello, sightseeing and gave us tons of information about all of the areas that we were visiting. Super friendly and helpful and funny too! Absolutely the highlight of our visit so far, going to recommend him to friends and family for future trips. Definitely would book with him and the tour company again on our next visit!
We took this trip and we loved it! Especially Pompei was amazing including our private quide Hugo. The day was a big success, also the kids loved it (even though they didn't taste the wines :)). The trip was so nice greatly due to our driver Rino! He really made our day. He explained the area and it's history on the way to Pompei and Vesuvius. He made us recommendations for restaurants and also made a reservation for us in a very nice restaurant! He was very professional but at the same time the nicest guy there can be. So make sure you ask for Rino if you want to make this trip! 100% recommendation for this trip and Rino!!
My husband and I booked this as a private tour for the two of us and had a wonderful time. We loved that our day/transportation was already planned and we could just show up and enjoy. Our driver, Alberto was great and had a ton of knowledge about Sorrento and the surrounding areas. We got a private tour of Pompeii and our guide Francisco was very knowledgeable and helped us skip all the lines so we could start our tour quickly. I would recommend this tour to anyone.
Pippo made our experience EXCEPTIONAL. His contagious laugh, love of the area, genuine hospitality and ability to make us feel special was beyond amazing. I would tell anyone going to Amalfi to book with Pippo specifically. I foresee us becoming regulars and seeing him again. Thank you for a memorable day.
Eurolimo was great. We had 2 drivers during our time in Sorrento (Alberto and Pippo). We were 4 adults and did 2 tours - one was the Amalfi Coast Drive and the other was Pompeii/Mt. Vesuvius/Winery. Alberto was great for both tours! Unfortunately we couldn't go to Mt. Vesuvius or the Winery but he found us another great little sandwich shop along the way with great sandwiches and a view of the coast! We also had enough time in Positano, Amalfi and Ravello and he was a wonderful driver on the roads! Pippo was our driver going to and from our family's town of Quaglietta - he was great as well - especially having to maneuver thru the small town streets! I highly recommend Eurolimo when visiting Sorrento!!!!
This is a fantastic day that combines the history of Pompeii, the majesty of Mt Vesuvius and when you are tired, the luxury of a winery lunch with many delicious courses and fine wines. (The wines grown in volcanic soil are delicious and distinctive and we ordered many of them to ship home - along with amazing olive oil and wine vinegars). Our driver Rino was fantastic and gave us a lot of interesting history and stories about the Amalfi Coast and Mt Vesuvius, he was accommodating, charming and knowledgeable (and drove skillfully on those crazy roads)! Our Pompeii guide Anna Maria was a fount of knowledge and kept us away from the crowds. This is a great experience and worth every penny (or Euro) you spend! We are (picky) well travelled Americans and this gets all 5 stars!
One word - spectacular! Everything was just perfect. Our driver, Pippo, our personal guide for Pompei (Franceso) was so knowledgeable and charming. Everything culminated with a wonderful Wine tour. If you do anything in Italy, book this tour, you will not be disappointed!
The most incredible day!!!! From the moment we were picked up to the drop off after a fantastic day; this adventure was excellent. The private SUV was spotless and comfortable. Our driver/guide was wonderful and catered to us the entire day. Prompt services with zero issues or concerns. Visiting Pompeii was a bucket list item. Our driver handed us off at the gates of Pompeii to our extra incredible ruins expert and guide, Ornella C. If you have any choice at all-request her!!! Private tour of ruins was nothing short of exceptional. Top notch. Ornella is outstanding. Pompeii is an incredible tour. We sadly said farewell to Ornella and off to hike Mt. V. Wow. Bucket list yet again. VIP service past the main gates and handed off at the ticket takers feet. It’s a gradual, steep hike with loose soil. Dress and plan accordingly. Reaching the top was worth every moment of exertion. Outstanding. The gravity assisted descent is, of course, easier than the ascent. Lol. Next was the vineyard for lunch and a much anticipated tasting session. Beautiful. Wonderful. Yes yes yes. Shipped a case of wine and vinegar back to the US. This day was worth every penny and created lifelong memories.
Everything was perfecto!! From the driver to each stop. The private tour of Pompeii was unbelievable. Our guide, Roberta, was amazing! The wine tasting was such a great end to the day. The wine was delightful!
Great experience with Euro Limo, our drivers, Bepo and Alberto were exceptional and added greatly to the overall experience
It was a pleasure to meet Bippo. He was a wonderful guide to these amazing destinations. Bippo was friendly, helpful and provided some great “surprises” that made the tour even better! Highly recommended.
The tours of Pompeii and Vesuvius were great with lots of information! The wine tour was outstanding- delicious wine and good!
Rino was an absolutely amazing guide and driver on our excursion to Pompeii, Vesuvius, and Cantina Del Vesuvio Winery. He was friendly, knowledgeable, punctual and did everything in his power to make our experience the best it could possibly be. He made the whole day go by quickly and offered us lots of helpful info and tips for our entire trip in Italy, not just Sorrento or the Amalfi coast. You will not regret booking any excursion with him and we can safely say that his expertise made this day the best highlight of our entire honeymoon
We had a great day! Rino was the best driver and guide, felt very safe on the winding roads and he gave great tips on the area. Highly recommend!
My girlfriend and I had an amazing experience. Pippo was our driver for the day and he did a great job taking care of us. The experience started at Pompeii with Francesco as our tour guide. We stopped on our way up to the rim of the crater and tasted some lemoncello and shopped for souvenirs. We tasted 4 wines with a plate of food after a quick tour of the winery we stopped at. Before taking us back to our hotel, Pippo treated us to a lemoncello slushy along the coast with a breath taking view of Sorrento/Sant’Agnello. It was a perfect day and can’t recommend this tour enough.
A wonderful day in Italy with Pippo! Best tour guide -so friendly and informative and really made it a personal experience we will not forget! Accommodated us in every way and this personal driver was the best way to enjoy this trip- Highly recommend him!
Booking this tour was one of the best decisions we have made on our honeymoon. At the time of booking, Nello was really responsive in answering questions and even book the Vesuivius tickets in advance when it was about to sell out on our tour date. On the day of our tour, Pippo was so warm and professional, and greeted us with such hospitality. The car was new and stellar clean. Pippo has really exceptional driving skills, the entire ride was very smooth despite all of the curves, turns, hills and narrow roads in the area. He drove the car like it was a bicycle, with such finesse. Pippo is also very knowledgeable about the area, knows various routes to get to the same place if one showed heavier traffic and he served as our tour guide during the drive too, sharing fun facts and engaging in convos with us. He really went above and beyond to ensure that we had a good time, and we couldn’t have thought of a better way to explore Pompeii, Vesuivius and enjoy a local winery. If we book any other tours in the area, we would still go with Pippo and Eurolimo. We would 100% recommend Pippo and the Eurolimo team to our friends and family who are visiting the Amalfi coast as well.
What a day! Pippo, our driver, was such an amazing guide and started off our day with fresh lemons from his garden! His knowledge of the area and the little surprises he had for us during the day truly mad the trip. Everyone needs a tour guide like Pippo for their journeys! We couldn’t say enough wonderful things about the Pompei tour. Our guide was charismatic, knowledgeable, and added a little extra time onto our tour because we had so many questions for her. The two hours flew by, but really was the perfect amount of time to see the important elements. Mount Vesuvius is not to be missed and the group booked our tickets head of time so that we did not miss out. The wine tour was the best way to end the day. Seated right at the beginning of the park, there is wonderful views, wine, and food. Pippo made sure there was a table ready for our group so we did not wait at all after our tour of the vineyard. We had such a wonderful day and you 100% should book this tour during your stay in the area!
rino was an excellent driver! he picked us up in our hotel in positano then he started with vesuvius first then lunch on the winery and pompeii last. our guide in pompeii, ornella was super informative and kind! this tour is a must.
Thank you first to Pippo who is an excellent driver. The transportation was perfect. Ornella is a terrific guide. She accommodated the needs of our family and is perfect for kids. Very engaging!
My family and I were extremely impressed with the quality of Eurolimo's service. We originally booked the Pompeii/Vesuvius tour + a private boat excursion to Capri before arriving in Sorrento, but then decided to add trips to Amalfi, Nerano, and Positano while there because both Nello and Pippo were incredible. Pippo is an absolute gem of a guide... the best we've ever had! He is uber-friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He went out of his way to share lemons from his organic garden + pick fresh, wild blackberries for us while we climbed Vesuvius! By the end of our trip, he felt like a family friend we'd known for a while. Nello is a true professional. He accommodated all of our needs, kept us informed in real time via regular communication, and provided clean and spacious vehicles for our family of 8. Overall, Eurolimo went above and beyond our expectations. We highly recommend! -- Ciccio Bello & Family
Our group of four had a wonderful day on this fun and historical tour. Our driver, Rino, picked us up at our hotel in Sorrento and drove us in his beautiful car, even providing cold water bottles throughout the day. He was a wonderful tour guide, pointing out many interesting sites along the way to Mt. Vesuvius. He gave us ample time for climbing the mountain and oh what a view! It is stunning all the way up. We met Rino on our way down the mountain and off we went for a fabulous wine tour, tasting and lunch at Cantina Del Vesuvio. Next, we drove to Pompeii for our private tour of this city which was destroyed in 79AD when Vesuvius erupted. Our guide, Frederica was personable and knowledgeable. This is the perfect day from Sorrento. 5+ STARS!!
Our driver Pippo was a joy. Made the day perfect. Knew all the short cuts, spoke solid English, was funny and punctual. Our guide for Pompeii brought history to life. Without Daniello it would have just been ruins. Viator is the way to go. Their contacts are the best
This tour was fabulous!!! Our guide Rino, was kind, funny and a wealth of information! He took us to a few extra can’t miss spots, gave us recommendations for the rest of our stay and had lots of great info about the area. Car was beautiful. Loved all three parts of this your!!!
My husband and I had a fantastic day on this experience. Our touring driver, Alberto, shared a lot of information about the area, and was happy to answer all of our questions. He made the day extra special, by stopping at several additional look out spots, so that we could take in the view and take photos. The tour in Pompei was very interesting, and our guide, Rafaela, did a fantastic job of navigating the crowds, and sharing really interesting information about the area. It was so nice to have a private guide, as she was able to answer all of our questions. We would highly recommend Rafaela, as she was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We visited the winery next, and had an interesting tour and delicious lunch. The scenery was gorgeous and it was a beautiful setting. After lunch, we visited Mt. Vesuvius, which was quite busy, but again very interesting. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes with good traction, as that will make the uphill climb much easier. We grabbed an espresso on the way up, and had lots of water, as it was quite hot in the sun. We had a truly fantastic day, and are so grateful to Alberto and Rafaela for this amazing and personalized experience. We highly recommend this experience. Thank you Alberto and Rafaela!
We had the most amazing day. Pippo was an excellent driver and guide. He picked us up from our hotel in Naples. We started the tour walking up to Vesuvius in the morning before the heat. Then on to wine tasting and lunch . Met our guide for Pompei which was amazing! They dropped us at our place in cetara. The perfect start to our week.
From the minute he got out of the car to greet us we were smiling and laughing. His personality and his laugh was infectious. We became like family to Pippo within minutes of meeting him. He took us to Mt Vesuvius and Pompeii as well as an amazing winery for a Wine Pairing / Tasting & lunch. Our guide in Pompeii was amazing as well. (I think her name was Federica!). This was an incredible day packed with non stop action. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR TO ALL WHO LIKE TO ENJOY LIFE!!! What a perfect day!!!! You know it’s a good day when you give your driver a hug when he drops you off!!
Eurolimo is an excellent company with reliable services. It’s owner, Nello, was very attentive and we established great communication before and during our travel to Italy. His services were punctual, professional and cars well maintained. I do have to mention our driver and tour guide Pippo. Pippo was amazing!! He was very attentive, professional, friendly, caring to our family’s needs and provided us with great information and recommendations. We were lucky to have Pippo for a few tours and missed his charisma afterwards. I highly recommend Eurolimo. Thank you so much to Nello and Pippo for the great service and look forward to see you again during our next visit to Italy!!!
Great sequence; early morning Vesuvius, winery and lunch and the Pompie. The private (just your family) tour, although a little expensive is really the way to do this. Pippo (Joseph), our driver was just fantastic. Extremely personable, cared for us throughout the trip and helped any way he could. We lucked out with fantastic weather. In July, it was chilly was Mt. Vesuvius.
