We were on a private car tour of the Amalfi Coast and our driver Marcella did a great job of sussing out what our interests were and built a great day around that information. She stopped at so many great photo opportunities because she knew I love photography. She gave us just the right amount of time in the villages and towns to see the historic highlights. She offered to made reservations for lunch if we were into fine dining, but was perfectly fine with us choosing a quick snack instead. She also too us to a great ceramics store that had a huge collection of beautiful things. She gave us an informative and leisurely day that we will not forget.

We arrived at the train station to a smiling happy Enzo! Right on time! Riding with Enzo made the entire trip stress free. We organized everything based on our itinerary in advance and just enjoyed our trip! Enzo arrived EXACTLY on time to tour us around Amalfi including Ravello. He stopped for great pictures, pointed out all the sites we would have never seen and stoped for a fresh OJ looking over the coast of Amalfi. We were able to pack in many sites! Just walk up and get on the car. No time wasted on waiting for the train, no stress driving our own car and paying €€ for parking! Just a perfect service for our trip! I highly recommend booking Enzo if he is available. Grazie Enzo!
Superb day visiting the amalfi coast! Our driver Katia (Americo car service) was fabulous! She was a great driver-providing us with great information/history on all the towns we visited! She was very accommodating to our family as we had our little granddaughter with us ! She was truly a Pleasure to talk with, learn from and share stores ! Katia made the trip so enjoyable!!!!!!
We had a wonderful experience with Roberto, who picked us up on time, drove safely, and engaged all 8 of us, ranging from aged 10-80, making sure everything was comfortable, smooth, and entertaining as well. He talked to us early on to understand our needs and expectations, which not every driver/guide did on our trip! He had great local insights and recommendations. We used Americo again (and were lucky enough to have Robert drive us a second time) for a drop off in Naples accompanied by a tour. He recommended a wonderful pizza place for us and even called ahead to make a reservation for an airconditioned table.
Had a fantastic day driving the Amalfi coast and seeing all the beautiful sights. Our guide, Katia, was brilliant - so kind, helpful, organised and was able to give recommendations for things to do in each place we visited, organised a stop off for lunch and gave us lots of information about the history of the coastline as we drove along. Thank you Katia, we had a wonderful day!
We had the most AMAZING experience Americo car service a few months ago. We were visiting Sorrento in May and wanted to travel to Ravello. Our hotel recommended Americo car service and we couldn’t be happier. Our driver, Katia, was fabulous! From the moment she picked us up until the sad moment when we arrived back at our hotel, everything was perfect. Katia couldn’t have been more helpful. We never felt like we were on a tour or with a travel agent. We felt like we were with a friend. She was so helpful in securing reservations for us along the way and was very flexible, even stopping at a wonderful ceramics store along the coast. 😁 She was a very safe driver, The car was very comfortable and she had water bottles for us. We will be traveling back to the area shortly and can’t wait to use their services again. Hopefully we get to see Katia again. ☺️
Amazing Amalfi Coast Tour – A Highlight of Our Trip! Our Amalfi Coast tour was absolutely fantastic and one of the highlights of our vacation. The scenery was breathtaking, with stunning coastal views at every turn, and we had the opportunity to visit beautiful towns that each had their own unique charm. Our guide Roberto Vanacore was knowledgeable, friendly, and well organized, sharing interesting history and local insights while keeping the day running smoothly. The transportation was comfortable, and there was plenty of time to explore, take photos, enjoy the local food, and soak in the incredible atmosphere. The entire experience was well planned and stress-free. We never felt rushed, and every stop was worth visiting. If you’re looking for a memorable way to experience the Amalfi Coast, I highly recommend this tour with Roberto Vanacore. It exceeded our expectations and created memories we’ll cherish for years to come!
Katia gave us a rich and delightful tour of the Amalfi Coast. She brought the past to life with her knowledge of the region’s history and how it shaped today’s culture. Her choice places gave us the perfect blend of taste, sight, and style.
Our guide Roberto was knowledgeable and really took his time making sure we got to see everything we wanted to see . Request Roberto if you want a day filled with all the Amalfi Coast has to offer .
Today Katia, our tour driver from Americo, drove us down the Amalfi Coast from Sorrento to Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. Let's not forget the wonderful and beautiful lunch high up on the cliff in Scala! The tour lasted 7 hours, but by the end, I wished that the tour would continue. This was because of our wonderful Tour Driver, Katia. I have been on many tours, however, no guide brought more knowledge and passion to a tour than Katia. She explained everything she showed us with so much caring and emotion and pride in Italy. A great example is when she took us to Amalfi and told us that we should definitely go to the Cathedral of St. Andrew. We did and it was a beautiful and moving experience. I was able to say a prayer to St. Andrew for my first grandchild Andrew! She is a true gem who made my entire experience one I will never forget! I recommend this tour and Katia to everyone. Thank you Katia for the best experience of our trip! Ciao!
We had a wonderful day with Roberto! Pickup was very convenient. They were very accommodating with changing the pick up time. Roberto was a joy. As a local he knows a lot about the area and is much more than just a driver. He was able to share history and facts about the area. He was constantly ensuring that our experience was great from the temperature of the car and random stops. Roberto knew all the best spots to stop for pictures and became our private photographer along the way. Through the various drop offs and pick ups along the coast, he was on time everytime. We would highly recommend Roberto and Americo Car Service. One bit of feedback is that if you pay by credit card the process to pay is a little inconvenient versus paying with the driver at the end of the trip. It all worked out though.
Roberto was our personal driver. We called him Capitan Roberto! He was so great and very friendly. We loved his knowledge of the places he took us and gave us a chance to enjoy the places and allowed us to take beautiful pictures. Roberto’s service is above and beyond. He makes sure that we are enjoying ourselves and are able to see what we want. We would definitely recommend Roberto. And if given another chance to visit and tour Italy again, we would request Roberto! Thank you
I would give this experience one star out of 5. First of all, the problem was the tour guide Massimo. He spoke in a voice so low that We couldn’t hear 90 percent of what he was saying, and told him so a few times but really didn’t do anything about it. And the 10 percent time we could hear him, he was hard to understand. Also, it’s supposed to be a private tour where we could decide where we wanted to go. That didn’t happen. We spent too much time in Atrani where there’s nothing to do really but take some pictures, for 90 minutes? We could have just spent maybe 30 minutes there and used the extra hour instead to spend in Ravello. And for lunch, he took us to Scala, although I already mentioned beforehand that I wanted to have lunch in Ravello. I had to insist lunch in Ravello a few times before he finally changed his course going towards Ravello, saying that Ravello is such a small town anyway. I felt like why do I have to insist on where we wanted to go if this was a private tour? We ended up just grabbing a quick pizza meal in the center and not enough time to really enjoy the view. We could have had a better and more pleasant experience with a different tour guide.
Highly recommend this tour. Our driver Enzo was amazing. Not only was he a really nice guy but he had pointed out all the important sites/buildings along the way.
We were picked up at the Naples airport to Sorrento by Roberto. He is professional, kind and super personable, with a great sense of humor, we decided to retain him for an Amalfi Coast tour the next day. He gave us 8 hours of joyful adventure from Sorrento through Positano, then up the breathtakingly beautiful Rovello, down to the exciting Amalfi town and back to Sorrento, a city where he was born and still lives with his wife. He knows these places so well it was like having your own historian/tour guide who is also a highly skilled driver capable of handling the treacherously narrow and windy road with aplomb! He clearly loves and takes his job very seriously. We cannot recommend his services enough. My wife and I are also proud to say that we now call him friend. Go Roberto!
Just came back from trip to Italy. We did a private tour of Amalfi coast with Roberto which was definitely a highlight of our trip Picked up on time in Mercedes van which was comfortable and well air conditioned. Roberto was a gem-drove carefully on winding roads-stopped to take pictures in beautiful spots which allowed all of us to be in the pictures. Pointed out interesting areas on the drive. Took us to Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Tailored trip to our request. Spent most of the time in stunning Ravello. Roberto made a lunch reservation for us in the most gorgeous location overlooking the coast. Lunch was delicious-he also took us to some amazing pottery and glassware stores and dropped us off at Villa Ruffolo. Overall a wonderful day with a wonderful guide-would highly recommend Americo car service and Roberto!!! Happy travels!
Enzo was fabulous. It was my birthday he surprised me with a beautiful cake. Everything was beyond my expectations.
Great guide, driver, and beautiful views! Highly recommend
Be sure to hire Lorenzo as your tour guide. He is knowledgeable and has wonderful suggestions. His personal perspective added sp much to our experience!
Tour guide Katia was excellent. She gave us lunch recommendations and stopped whenever we wanted to take pictures or enjoy a beautiful sight.
We had a wonderful experience on our drive with Marcella. She’s very friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. She was very knowledgeable about the area, and made great recommendations on some stops we should make along the drive. She also made us a reservation for lunch at a beautiful restaurant in Ravello. We had a table with an amazing view and the food was delicious. Last but not least, she’s an amazing driver! Grazie to Marcella!! If we are fortunate enough to return to the area, we would definitely book another driving tour with Americo Car Service (and request Marcella too!!).
My girlfriend and I booked a private day tour of the Amalfi Coast from Sorrento in late April with Enzo through our hotel concierge. Everything was arranged by the hotel and we paid in cash. Friendly Enzo greeted us at 8:30 and we were back just before the 8-hour mark around 16:30. He took us in a clean Mercedes van with plenty of space. From Sorrento, we drove along the gorgeous coastal road and stopped in Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello, with an optional cliffside lunch stop at a small restaurant in Ravello. We had an hour to roam around Positano and Amalfi, and 45 minutes in Ravello. This only gave us enough time to take a few photos, peak at some shops, and enjoy the views, but this is what we wanted and expected. What we liked is that Enzo took care of the schedule and activities for us. We did not do extensive research before our trip, so this was a nice and stress-free way to sample the area without doing any planning. Along the way, Enzo did a great job describing what we were seeing as we drove by. He also took time to stop and take photos of us along the road as we wished. The restaurant in Ravello was cute and family-run. Nothing fancy, just a nice meal with a great view. Be aware that the meal is not included in the tour price. We chose this options because it felt easier than packing lunch or trying to cram something in while in one of the towns. On the drive back, we also had an opportunity to stop at one of the ceramic factories. You aren’t obligated to buy anything, but we found a few nice souvenirs in our case. Overall, we felt very safe, comfortable, and taken care of by Enzo. While the towns are always crowded, coastal road wasn’t so busy during our tour, but in busier times of the year, having a private local driver like Enzo would probably be even more valuable than it was for us. We recommend this for groups who aren't looking for a deep dive, but just want a convenient, safe, and enjoyable Amalfi experience.
Marcella was an incredible driver and friend
Marcella, our Driver was awesome! She demonstrated an exceptional knowledge Of the Amalfi Coast. We (4 couples) booked the trip thru Americo and were provided with a wonderful guide! Her driving skills were impressive…she made our lunch reservations, and showed us what we needed to see… she was entertaining and truly genuine. The 7. 5 hours were worth every euro! Would definitely use Americo again and request Marcella💚
We had the most wonderful day with Enzo as our guide! From exploring Positano and Amalfi to a stunning mountainside lunch in Ravello, every moment was special. Enzo was a fantastic guide and made our trip unforgettable. We enjoyed getting to know him and learning from his vast knowledge of the area. If you’re looking for a day trip to the Amalfi coast, we’d recommend this excursion!
Marcella was an amazing driver! She took us to local ceramic store, had lunch reservations for us, as well as got us on a boat to see from the water amalfi coast! The weather was rainy at first but she had back up ideas and plans! Took us to positano where she took us to get gelato and then sightsee ! Wonderful experience and professional even for a rainy day!
Had a wonderful time on our tour, great experience all around. Our guide, Marchella was a great driver, took her time and provided lots of information. The van was very clean and well maintained. I would highly recommend using Americo & his team.
Spend a day touring the coast with my family and highly recommend booking with Katia. She navigated the road and noting points of interest with ease. Our stops along the way never felt rushed and the tour from beginning to end was enjoyable.
We had Katia as our driver, she did an excellent job and was extremely knowledgeable about Amalfi. She reserved an amazing table for us for lunch. Perfect day trip for anyone looking to explore Amalfi!
We had a great tour of the Amalfi coast with Tiziana as our driver. She was careful and considerate of our wishes and navigated the busy winding roads expertly! Tiziana was also very friendly and helpful in pointing out some key landmarks during the trip, in spite of her feeling her English was limited. We enjoyed our tour with her and appreciated the Andre Bocceli music selection for the drive home! Mille grazie!
Our driver, Marcella was very prompt and provided a wonderful day exploring the towns of Positano, Artrana, and Amalfi. She was so personable and considerate . She made sure we saw the best things and took us to great shopping. We can’t recommend her enough.
Amazing! Vehicle very smart & clean. Claudia our superb driver was very friendly & very knowledgeable. She gave us tips & recommendations on places to drink & eat. The itinerary was set by how long we wanted to spend in each place & everything worked out perfectly. Would definitely recommend - used Viator on a previous trip & would not hesitate to use again.
What an experience! Enzo was our driver for the day.. He was extremely friendly and courteous He took care of us like we were his family. Anyone who could drive these windy,narrow streets with such skill is #1 in my book. He also ensured we had group photos, found great backgrounds to photograph us too!
What a great company from the moment we arrived. We had Claudia who was a wonderful guide and we loved her and will request her service again. We recommend this company five star! G.A.T Golf Ltd.
Katina gave my family and I the best Almafi Tour today. She has great knowledge and customer service skills. She made our trip beyond enjoyable, and we will never forget this experience. I recommend Almafi Tour 7/19 @7am with Katia to anyone who’s looking for a beautiful day to spend in Almafi Coast.
Amalfi coast is awesome and we enjoyed it thanks to choosing to staying in Praiano. I wouldn’t recommend this company or guide as their attitude to customers could be a lot better. Hope they get their act together. You are better off booking a car with Blacklane or another operator by the hour!!
We booked a private tour with Americo Car Service through Costco Travel as part of our honeymoon, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our entire trip. Our driver and guide, Katia, was amazing. She picked us up right on time at our hotel in Sorrento at 8:00 AM, and from the moment we met her, she made us feel totally comfortable. She was warm, friendly, super professional, and just really easy to be around. The tour took us along the Amalfi Coast until about 5:00 PM, and Katia made the whole day feel effortless. She was full of great information about the area, shared interesting stories, and had a real knack for tailoring the day to what we were into. Her suggestions were helpful and she timed everything perfectly. We stopped in Positano, had an unforgettable lunch in the hills of Scala, and made a short but lovely stop in Ravello. Every place felt special, and we never felt rushed. Katia really gave us the chance to take it all in and enjoy the day at our own pace. The car was super clean and comfortable, and even on the tight, twisty roads, we always felt safe with Katia behind the wheel. Having both a guide and driver in one made the whole experience totally stress-free. She made our honeymoon even more memorable, and we’re so thankful for the experience.
Katia (our driver) made our day so very special!!! She was a wealth of information and her expertise about where to go and when was much appreciated. Our daughter (17) whose trip this was for truly enjoyed hearing about the history and learning about this beautiful area. Katia made this our best day in Italy!!!
We had the most amazing day! Our driver Katia made the day so memorable! She was very friendly and gave us so much information. She made the trip so special for my family! We will remember her and the trip forever.
Our driver Marcella was amazing she was very helpful and was very good she was like a tour guide showing us around . I highly recommend this company and especially Marcella
Excellent tour and would recommend. Customer service first class and Enzo was really good and informative. Thank you for a great trip
Our private tour of Amalfi Coast was fantastic with Marcella. Her driving was excellent and she provided information all along the coast (as well as was our photographer!). It was such a lovely day for our family. Excellent service!!
Tiziana was our private guide and driver. She was a very careful driver and we felt safe going around the very curvy narrow roads with her. She narrated the areas we would visit so we knew the history and what we would be seeing. She was so pleasant to be with and she made our day wonderful. My husband and I highly recommend your service. Jean Arovas
My friends and I had an absolute blast taking this private tour with Americo. Initially, we were looking for a bus that would get us to Positano and Amalfi but realized that would be cumbersome and we wouldn't be able to have any flexibility. Our Airbnb host called Americo and had them pick us up. I want to specifically shoutout our driver, Enzo, he was terrific. He took us to Positano, Amalfi, and Mount Ravello--all of which he gave us plenty of time to explore and lead us to the most beautiful spots of each site. Even though it was a day that was colder and rainy, Enzo managed to redirect ship and show us a great time. He was kind and enthusiastic, granted us any request (within reason) inside the van such as allowing us to play house music to amplify the vibes, and was incredibly patient. He did not speak English well but spoke Spanish and Italian in which he worked through communicating with us as two of our friends spoke Spanish and the other Italian. Overall, the value of the trip heavily outperformed the cost per person that our group of seven spent. I highly recommend this for anyone thinking of doing so. If you book it, specifically see if Enzo can be your driver. I trust that dude to gift you a wonderful experience.
Enzo was amazing. He filled us in with lots of historical information and fun facts regarding the amalfi coast. He took us to great spots that had the best views and were great for pictures. 10/10 would recommend, and I would do this tour again myself!
Our driver, Enzo, was the kindest man from the start of our day with him. Even on a very rainy day, he traversed the roads extremely well, and he always made sure to point out different landmarks along the beautiful routes through Sorrento. Although he did not speak English super well, we got by just great with a mix of Italian, Spanish, and English - which only added to the fun of the trip in our opinion. The nicest, most honest guy, Enzo deserves a raise and a high rating every time!
We were 3 couples staying at the Grand Hotel Ambasciatori in Sorrento, and through the recommendation of hotel staff, we scheduled a tour of the Amalfi Coast. We were so very fortunate to have Katia assigned as our tour guide. Katia was extraordinary in every way. An amazing personality, knowledgeable, very well known throughout the area, and she paid attention to all of our needs. Throughout the entire tour, she maneuvered the roads masterfully, all while pointing out the wonderful sights, telling jokes, and singing with her amazing voice. If you want a great experience, book a tour and make sure you request Katia!
Katia was our great driver. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Took us to great spots along Amalfi coast. Had a wonderful day and would highly recommend Katia and Americo Car Service!
On October 26th we took a car tour from Sorrento to Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. The service couldn't be better. Katia, the lady acting as driver and guide made everything possible to make our journey one of the best we had. She was punctual for the pick up. She was very knowledgeable about the cities, monuments, and landscape. During all the journey she explained to us about the history of the places, and even had humorous stories to enjoy the trip. She also gave us good tips to take a boat trip in Amalfi, excellent lunch at Ravello and also places to see in each town. About her driving skills, she proved to be an excellent driver, cautious and knowing the road. She made our day!!! Fernando Parodi Peru
This is a MUST for anyone looking for an authentic way to see the Amalfi Coast. Marcella was absolutely the best guide! She made sure we were able to make stops along the way and was practically our personal photographer throughout. She was also super friendly and knowledgeable. The lunch she had set up for us in Ravello was amazing. The views, the food, the atmosphere was 10/10. Beyond that, she had surprises for us throughout the day. We spent at least an hour in Positano and Ravello and then made small stops into stores and whatnot along the way. In the end, she gave us a fantastic restaurant recommendation back in town and had the chef come out and say hi after dinner. I cannot recommend her services enough. You’re very lucky if you get her as a guide. As for the company, we were somewhat lucky getting a tour on short notice. We walked in at 9pm on the way home for dinner and they had a private tour available for 2 days later. They had us picked up on time and the car itself was clean and comfortable. We were ripped off by another company the day before and cannot explain how much better this was all around.
