Had I understood that each, Ravello, Positano and Sorrento were about 90 min apart and horribly windy narrow roads, I’d have chosen 2 at most. Too much time in the car, although Alessndro was a master driver. Did not find this to be a relaxed experience for 700€ Would have preferred choosing our own lunch choice in the town of Sorrento, that we never saw because we were taken to an oil tasting (beautiful) place for lunch with no choice and nothing else around. No time left but to return to the ship. I would use this gentleman again, due to his driving ability, professional personality and knowledge of the area.but be clear with your desires as he was quite strong with is own ideas of where to shop and have lunch. Also he told me on the phone 60€/extra hour and added 10€ to 70€/ hr extra in the car. I mentioned it. But he didn’t seem to hear me. To summarize, we had about 1 hour in Ravello, one hour in Positano, and 90 min for lunch at a ‘winery’? And about 5 hours in the car which I found quite stressful.

We had a wonderful experience with Allessandro on our tour through the Almafi coast. He was personable & very knowledgeable which made for a great time. I would highly recommend this tour with him if you choose to see the coast by land. Thank you for a great experience Alessandro
Excellent tour with excellent guide (Alessandro), his long experience in the region making tours was evident. We fully recommend it!!
There was NO AIR CONDITIONING on this supposedly “Luxury” van in the heat. Add in the winding roads and the experience was a terrible day. Beware. Tour operator rejected request for a partial refund.
Alessandro was our driver! Our meeting time was 8-8:30 am! He arrived at 10 am. We were upset about the constant time change. Aftet pick up, he had to stop for gas. We went to Amalfi, Positano and Ravello. We loved the stops but felt it was not enough time in each city( about an hour). The Mercedes van was run down and honestly we did not think we would make it back to our apt. The transmission was def a problem along with the seats and loose rear window. Alessandro, did a nice job as a tour guide, telling us about the highlights in each area and did the full 8 hour tour.
Safe and knowledgeable driver. Took us to good photo spots along the way. Everything was great. Only wish we had stayed out for the full 8 hours instead of arriving back home so early (30 min ahead).
Had a great day with my family getting to see the gorgeous Amalfi Coast. Our driver Alessandro gave us tips and suggestions throughout the trip which definitely made the experience so much better. I would definitely recommend this tour.
Alex did an amazing job leading our family on this tour of the Amalphi coast. He is very experienced since has lived in the area all his life He took us to all the best places he picked us up at our Airbnb, which was above and beyond and he catered the experience to what we wanted to do He is a friendly, professional, and an experienced driver, which you need on the Amalfi coast! I would totally recommend this tour to really see as much as you can see in a day!!
Alex really knows the Amalfi coast and took us to all the best places!! Had a fabulous time!! He is professional, experienced & customized our tour for us! We feel we gained a new friend!!
Our driver picked us up on time and as we drove to the Amalfi coast gave us the history and stories of the coast we were about to visit. The van was very comfortable and stocked with cold waters and sodas. We stopped 3 towns along the coast. Positano, Revello and Amalfi. Pasitano was our favorite for being small and quaint with get small shops. Revello was small and not much going on other than the square and church. Amalfi was the biggest and very crowded. The ride to these towns was very scenic and the driver stopped at key points for the views and pictures.
Alessandro is absolutely amazing! His driving skills are excellent (which matters greatly given how winding the roads are), he does not cut corners and is incredibly courteous. We absolutely loved every moment of the tour.
Highly recommended! We had a perfect day around Amalfi coast, with multiple short stops! Don’t try to drive yourself, Alessandro is the way to go to enjoy it and see all the views!
Alessandro was fabulous and gave us so much information during our tour. He took us to a beautiful place for lunch and dropped us off at convenient locations to access all the towns. Impeccable driving and very patient with the traffic on the road. My husband and I highly recommend.
Alessandro is a great guide. He helped us see the Coast and provided many interesting pieces of information. He kept us laughing throughout. We will certainly use him again.
Alessandro the owner was fabulous, he was pleasant, and knowledgeable . We spent the day touring with him stopping in Ravello , Positano , Amalfi coast center. In between he stopped at a restaurant for lunch which the view was spectacular and food was delicious . I would recommend this tour for anyone looking for a professional, private tour guide
Alessandro’s driving tour of the Amalfi Coast is a MUST do! His professionalism, communication and welcoming nature made our family trip so incredible. We originally just booked him for the driving tour which was an incredible culture experience which was made even better because of his deep understanding and connection with the culture and history. Additionally, Alessandro gave us great recommendations for other activities and dinners in the Amalfi Coast and we ended up booking him again as our driver because of the great experience that we had with him. We have friends and family that will be vacationing in the Amalfi coast this year and Alessandro/his driving tour will be one of our top recommendations. Thank you Alessandro for making our family trip even better!
Ale is top notch! He knows the coast, the villages, and how to navigate the roads. Enjoy his Mercedes Benz van. He made reservations for us on the coast and back in Sorrento. He knows everyone and everything, It seems. :)
alessandro was an excellent guide and driver. we loved the amalfi coast tour so much we cancelled another tour for pompeii and booked with him which was wonderful as well!
This tour was more than we anticipated. Alessandro was an exceptional host and felt like he became part of our traveling group of friends. We had plenty of time for pictures and shopping at the three stops as well as an unscheduled stop at an Olive Oil tasting tasting round
We had a great day exploring the Amalfi Coast. Pick up was on time right at our hotel. Driver was knowledgable about all of the stops. He also made us an amazing water view reservation for lunch.
Our family had an absolutely wonderful experience exploring the Amalfi Coast, and Alessandro made all the difference. His deep knowledge of the region brought the history and culture of this stunning area to life in a way we never could have discovered on our own. He knew exactly where to take us for the most breathtaking photo opportunities. Most importantly, he made the whole day genuinely fun. We came away with incredible memories and a much richer appreciation for this part of Italy. Highly recommend Alessandro to anyone visiting the coast — you won’t be disappointed!
Our group of five Canadians booked a tour with Alessandro on April 4, 2026 and it was truly the highlight of our time on the Amalfi coast. Alexandra was an exceptional host and driver - professional, personable and knowledgeable. He took us to beautiful scenic viewpoints, allowed plenty of time for photos and arranged a wonderful stop for lunch. Driving the coast on our own would never have compared; Alexandra insured we experienced the history, culture and hidden gems we would have otherwise missed. We all agree that he is perfectly suited to what he does and we would highly recommend him to anyone visiting the Amalfi coast.
This was a perfect day! Alessandro was great! We hit the perfect stops. He made great recommendations for each place we visited and took amazing pictures of our family! We had a wonderful lunch that he scheduled. Highly recommend!
Alessandro was a terrific guide (and driver) while we traced the spectacular Amalfi coastline. The 3 of us were able to sit back and relax….soaking in the amazing vistas. We stopped in 3 towns (Positano, Amalfi & Ravello) and were able to explore the streets at our own leisurely pace. This is not a road the unfamiliar should be tackling (the locals and your passengers will thank you), we were in great hands!
Had the best time letting someone else (Alessandro) drive the beautiful Amalfi coast for us! What a great way to enjoy the spectacular scenery, while having an informative commentary of exactly where we were & what we were seeing. The stops in Positano, Ravello & Almafi were perfect for us to stretch our legs & explore a bit on our own. Do not attempt to drive this amazing part of the country yourself, let Alca do it for you!
Alessandro Calemma from Alca Excursions provided a great service for my family and I during our holiday in Italy. He provided transfer services, Picking us up from the Naples train station and driving us to our hotel in Sorrento and back again a few days later. We were tired after a full day of train travel and it was great to have someone taking charge and leading us to his comfortable Mini van. He also led us on a private full day tour of the Sorrento and Amalfi coasts. He’s a local and so managed the tight winding roads with great skill. This was a fantastic day for my family and I and Alessandro knows all the great spots to stop at - as well as the best restaurants to eat at. I wholeheartedly recommend Alessandro and alca excursions.
Alessandro was very informative, knowledgeable about every town and stop we took and very flexible with our schedule.
Accommodated and customized our experience to fit our needs, amazing experience! Alessandro was a great guide and full of knowledge of the area.
We had a wonderful day touring the Amalfi coast. Our tour guide Alessandro was great Very accommodating and knowledgeable . I would definitely book with him again
What a great day/excursion we had hosted by Alessandro! It was the highlight of our trip! He certainly knows the ins and outs of the Amalfi Coast! He gave us many lunch options to choose from and we were very satisfied with our chosen restaurant. Our last stop via Alassandro's suggestion was a very enjoyable olive oil and lemoncello tasting at Gargiulo's! My family and I highly recommend Alessandro and Alca Excursions! Thank you for a wonderful experience!
Highly recommend!! He is super professional, kind, thoughtful and flexible! The vehicle is clean. His driving is amazing. We felt very safe and cared for during our tour. If you are looking for a driver for your day on the Amalfi Coast, definitely choose Alca Excursions!
Alessandro provided a very memorable, fun and interesting excursion. He is extremely knowledgeable of the Amalfi coast and proved it by giving us information about the towns and sites we were seeing throughout the entire day. He made reservations for us at Calanjanara, a restaurant between Positano and Amalfi. He arranged for a table in the front right corner of the terrace with a spectacular view of the coast and sea. The food was delicious, service was great and the price was reasonable. The road along the Amalfi coast is challenging for any driver. Alessandro demonstrated his skill throughout the whole day, showing his 15 years of experience. We felt very safe during the entire trip which added to our enjoyment. Great memories and great value!
Fabio was an attentive driver and excellent guide as well. He made sure I got the pictures I wanted and took me to a lunch site in Ravello with wonderful views from the terrace. You can’t go wrong with Fabio!
Great tour with knowledgeable driver! My husband and I had a lot of fun, and loved exploring the towns on our own. Our driver was great and even called ahead and requested the "best view" for a table at a restaurant near Amalfi.
Left the driving to the professionals and was really glad! Alessandro was very knowledgeable, professional and showed us a great time on the Amalfi coast. He recommended a great lunch spot and gave us basic instructions on our brief times in Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Highly recommended!
We took two tours with Francesca and Alessandro. One to Pompeii and one of the Amalfi coast. Francesca and Alessandro were so kind and knowledgeable. They made the entire experience so much better. They are excellent hosts. I would highly recommend both. 10/10.
We enjoyed our day on the Amalfi coast. Our trip started in Napoli where we were picked up right outside of our BNB. Our tour guide Alessandro let us know of his progress because the company is based in Sorrento, which is about an hour away. Be aware that the trip from Napoli to the tour area is also about an hour, which is why we chose to be picked up. We had the choice of visiting three towns: Amalfi, Positano, and either Ravello or Sorrento. We chose Ravello. Our trip took us up over the mountains to Ravello, high above the coast and with great views of coastal towns. Then down to Amalfi and its beautiful cathedral. Then we stopped for a delicious lunch at the Calajanara Restaurant recommended by Alessandro. Our last stop was Positano, a pretty town built on a very steep slope. We had an hour at each stop, which was enough to admire Ravello and Amalfi, though you could easily spend much more time at each. At Positano, the views over the sea are wonderful but the distance and slope to the water and back is too great for the short amount of time we had. Overall, we are glad we went on the tour with wonderful views all along the way. Alessandro was a wonderful knowledgeable guide, and he gave us some good recommendations for food in Napoli and Capri.
We just had an unforgettable private tour of the Amalfi Coast with Alessandro, and it was truly the highlight of our trip! His professionalism, warm personality, and safe driving made our last day in Sorrento extra special. Alessandro showed us breathtaking spots we would have never discovered on our own. He shared so much interesting facts and local recommendations along the way. He made us feel comfortable, cared for, and like friends rather than just clients. If you’re visiting the Amalfi Coast, we highly recommend booking a tour with Alessandro—you won’t be disappointed!
We had an amazing day thanks to our tour guide Alexanddo (sp.). He was informative, flexible and even reserved a dinner reservation for the next evening. Highly recommend booking this tour. Positano is not easy to get around. I’d recommend leaving it to the professionals.
Amazing, Ale came to us the last day of our trip and fixed the whole mood for us. He was pleasant, knowledgeable spoke English and great driver who knows his area very well. If we knew him before we would have used him the whole trip. We were able to change the program according to what we wanted to see, no protocols no. He stayed with us and extra one and half hour. He took us to olive oil tasting and the emerald cave, he took us to Sorrento, Amalfi, Positano where we ate at an authentic restaurant. All on all it was an amazing experience. We felt that we were in good hands.
We had a great time with Alessandro on his van tour to Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. He explained everything with lots of interesting details and made the whole experience super enjoyable. The van was really comfortable, and he drove safely through those winding roads. Alessandro was friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us plenty of time to explore at each stop. Highly recommend this tour if you want a fun and relaxed way to see the Amalfi Coast. Thanks again, Alessandro!
If it was possible to give more than 5 stars then I would give 10. Alessandro picked us up right on time at our Airbnb. We drove the Amalfi coast, while Alessandro told us lots of information, pointing out things along the way. We stopped a few times for photo opportunities, which I really appreciated. Alessandro asked if we wanted a recommendation for lunch, and not only did he pick a fantastic restaurant, he also booked us a table, if your schedule works out to eat at Cafajanara do it! We had plenty of time at each town that we stopped in. If you book a tour with Alessandro you will not regret it.
It was a great tour!! Alessandro was super attentive and knew the most beautiful places!! Totally would recommend booking a tour with him!
Alessandro was excellent, he stopped at all the right stops, explained to us the name and significance of all the points. He referred us to great restaurant for lunch and gave us some other referrals for restaurants in Sorrento. Highly recommended him!
Our driver was terrific. We went to the usual places but he brilliantly navigated the winding roads that were full of traffic and buses coming the other way. It is an area that everyone should see, but frankly when the tourist count is lower.
We had a great day with Fabio touring the Amalfi Coast. He recommended a stop at a winery where we had an amazing lunch with four courses, wine pairings, a quick tour of their production facilities, topped off with dessert and limoncello. One of the highlights of our trip!
Alessandro was awesome. He communicated with us before pick up. He accommodated us to ensure he stopped where we wanted to take pictures. The private tour was well worth it. We were able to see Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Will hire him again.
This was an amazing tour and the perfect way to see the Amalfi coast in a day. Alessandro was a fantastic guide and showed us a number of wonderful “local” areas that I would not have known about otherwise. Alessandro did a great job and I would highly recommend the tour for everyone that is visiting the Sorrento area.

Alex came recommended by my mother who toured with him in September 2024, so glad she shared his information. Alex provided top-notch driving, local information and recommendations. Alex made sure to schedule our tour around busy traffic times and avoided large tour group areas as much as possible. Highly recommend booking a tour with Alex if you want to see the beauty of the Amalfi Coast.
