Magically suspended between the blue sky and the iridescent colored sea, the Amalfi coast seems to be born from the palette of a painter who wanted to use the warmer color gradients for creating a landscape that enchants the visitor at the first shot, giving thrilling experience and such evocative view to doubt, for a moment, it is real. It is the land where the sweet scent of lemon blossoms harmonizes itself with the most aromatic one of the Mediterranean vegetation and the acrid aroma of saltiness; where the brilliant colors of the majolica domes, bougainvillea and carnations pergolas give an evident colored touch to the typical whitewashed houses, clinging to the last offshoots of the Lattari Mounts that plunge dramatically into the sea.
The singular architecture of white houses of Amalfi, the good climate for almost the entire the year, make it a destination for thousands of Italian tourists and foreigners. Amalfi is a town of about 7000 inhabitants, rich in history and art, which gives its name to the homonym Amalfi Coast, famous throughout the world and since 1997, a World Heritage Site UNESCO. Visited by more and for its beauty, Amalfi is a valid target also for gourmets and gourmands, where they were invented the "cannelloni". Its foundation goes back to the Romans; from the ninth century, it was the first of the the Marine Republics and rivaled Pisa, Venice and Genoa for the control of the Mediterranean Sea.
Sorrento is a town overlooking the Bay of Naples in Southern Italy. A popular tourist destination due to its variety of small antique shops and location on the Amalfi Coast, it can be reached easily from Naples and Pompeii as it is at the south-eastern end of the Circumvesuviana rail line. The town is most known for its small shops selling ceramics, lacework and marquetry (woodwork). The Sorrentine Peninsula has views of Naples, Vesuvius and the Isle of Capri. The Amalfi Drive, connecting Sorrento and Amalfi, is a narrow road that threads along the high cliffs above the Tyrrhenian Sea. Ferries and hydrofoils connect the town to Naples, Amalfi, Positano, Capri and Ischia. Sorrento's sea cliffs and luxury hotels have attracted celebrities including Enrico Caruso and Luciano Pavarotti. Limoncello, a digestif made from lemon rinds, alcohol, water and sugar, is produced in Sorrento. Other agricultural production includes citrus fruit, wine, nuts and olives.
Dramatic, deluxe and more than a little dashing, Positano is the Amalfi Coast's front-cover splash, with vertiginous houses tumbling down to the sea in a cascade of sun-bleached peach, pink and terracotta. No less photo-worthy are its steep streets and steps, flanked by wisteria-draped hotels, smart restaurants and fashionable retailers. A pearl of the Amalfi Coast, it presents itself as a cluster of pastel houses clinging to the steep ledges of the Lattari Mountains, which reflect themselves in the clear sea below, surrounded by an intense fragrance of lemon and bright and vivid colors of bougainvillea. A maze of alleys and steps with small shops displaying the typical products of local crafts, which, together with the undisputed beauty of the landscape, have contributed to make Positano and the Amalfi Coast famous world-wide. We refer to the fresh linen dresses in style "Positano fashion", the leather sandals, the colorful ceramics and the limoncello.
The Sorrento Coast is a jagged promontory that shores up the southern end of the Bay of Naples. This peninsula of hilly terrain ends abruptly at a cliff that plunges sheerly down to the Mediterranean sea. The entire coastline around Sorrento was a Greek colony during the period of Magna Grecia, the legendary site of Homer's sirens, before being conquered by the Romans who enjoyed the area as a summer playground. It has maintained a reputation as an exclusive resort destination ever since. It boasts a mild climate, gorgeous panoramas and citrus-scented air.
We did multiple tours on this trip with Rome in limo both in and outside of Rome. Thank you very much.We have been a long time client and have always been completely satisfied with every tour and transfer with Romeinlimo. Basically we have taken just about every tour in each city, and we will be back in a few months to do and see more
Our tour was wonderful! Would highly recommend using them for any tours.
We had an outstanding day with Max as our guide from Rome in Limo, exploring the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii from Naples. Our journey began with a departure from the chaotic cruise port and a drive along the famous winding coastal roads to Positano. Despite the traffic and the challenges of navigating one of Italy's most scenic routes, Max expertly managed the drive while sharing insights about the area, local life, and the unique traffic patterns of the Amalfi Coast. Positano was absolutely stunning, and while we could have easily spent an entire day there, we were able to see many of the highlights and take in the incredible views. From there, Max took us to Sorrento, where he recommended lunch at Ristorante Zi Ntonio. The meal was excellent and provided a wonderful opportunity to experience authentic local cuisine. Sorrento itself was charming, and we enjoyed exploring the town before continuing our tour. The final stop was Pompeii, where Rome in Limo had arranged for a local guide to meet us and lead us through the ancient city. Having a knowledgeable guide made a tremendous difference in understanding the history and significance of the site. Pompeii was far larger and more fascinating than we expected, and we could easily have spent more than a day exploring its streets and ruins. Although each destination deserved much more time than a single day allows, Max helped us make the most of every minute. Beyond the sights themselves, some of our favorite moments were the conversations during the drives between locations, where we learned about the region, its history, and everyday life in southern Italy. If you're visiting Naples and want to experience Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii in a single day, we highly recommend Max and Rome in Limo. Their planning, local knowledge, and professionalism made this one of the most memorable days of our Mediterranean trip.
Beautiful Drive, with plenty of view stops. Diego, our driver was so fun and informative. This was our second time doing this exact tour, but it was just as great. We had plenty of time for lunch on the cliff with a fabulous view, and time for shopping. Diego also briefly drove around Naples to show us his home town. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone stopping in Naples.
Our tour with Maria was perfect, she curated just for us and to celebrate my friends bday at a great restaurant Brava Maria!!
We booked a shore excursion from a cruise ship with Alex from Rome in Limo . We visited Ravello, Positano and Sorrento. The scenery was spectacular but what made the day really special was the warm personality and great knowledge of Alex our driver. I cannot recommend him highly enough . We booked four trips on this holiday with Rome in Limo.We were collected from Rome and dropped to the cruise ship .We also were collected from the airport and dropped to our hotel and from the ship back to the airport . On each occasion our driver was there early and the service overall is exceptional
We had a wonderful day with our driver Giovanni. He was prompt and professional and shared so much very interesting information with us. We were able to see Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello in one day. We enjoyed his company and he provided us a great lunch recommendation too! Jany was a huge help in making all of the reservations and handling all of our questions. Highly recommend this company!
We were on a cruise, but docked for a day in Naples. We had been to Pompeii and Naples before, and wanted to experience something different. The tour was all day, but the time passed quickly. Alex, the driver, met us at the dock. The Mercedes was comfortable and the air conditioning was excellent. Alex was extremely knowledgeable and pointed out all the sites. He was very flexible and gave us options of what to see that interested us. We had free time in the cities to explore. We were returned to ship on time. On a side note, we also used RomeInLimo to shuttle us from our Rome hotel to our cruise ship. Both experiences were excellent! We were a group of 4, 2 couples. Price was reasonable considering the length of tour, what we saw, and the excellent tour guide!
We spent a beautiful day with Daniele on the Amalfi Coast. He was truly amazing and we are so happy we had the chance to meet him and learn all about this beautiful area of Italy. He was friendly, professional, informative, and clearly a subject matter expert on the wonderful history of the Naples area of Italy. We look forward to out next trip and we will certainly request another great day with Daniele.
Maria nice job with giving us a tour and drivi by was outstanding. Very knowledgeable and informative. .
We didn't know what to expect, or how our personalities would accustom to our guide. My husband and I both feel like we won the lottery with Alessandro! From the time of pick up, until the time of drop off, we were greeted with a smile and shared laughter throughout, the entire time. There were at times a little bit of car karaoke! WOW! What a fun filled and exciting day that we got to experience. It has always been a dream to see this side of the coast, and for our honeymoon, we wanted a more intimate tour. Without hesitation, we booked the Rome in Limo tour through Viator. IT WAS FANTASTIC! Alessandro is a plethora of knowledge about the area. The evening prior on our cruise, we had heard that there was a rockslide in Positano, which may impact our day trip. Alessandro knew a back way that would allow us time along the coast for some shopping, site seeing and memories to last a lifetime; and honestly, I'm unsure who had more fun, us or our Tour Guide. We were able to get into Amalfi before the BIG busses and crowds, and able to enjoy a visit to the Duomo and shops. Once we finished there, we headed further up the coast, stopping at beautiful lookout points over the mountains, smelling the wonderful jasmine and flowers, and just taking in the beauty that this side of the world has to offer. However, we weren't finished... Since we couldn't visit Positano due to the route and time constraints of our cruise, Alessandro took us to Naples, where we enjoyed the BEST PIZZA, learned some of the history, and again, just took in all of the beauty. THIS TOUR WAS MAGNIFICANT! Do not hesitate to book it as they fill up quick. Ask for Alessandro. You will feel as if you're with a long lost family member! We will surely book in the future and request for him. Thank you again for the memorable time and laughs!!!
We had a fantastic day visiting Positano and Sorrento and then a great lunch with wine tasting at a vineyard at the base of Mount Vesuvius. Our driver Giovanni was fabulous and made the day a pleasure. I highly recommend this tour
My name is Michael from Boston, MA. I want to let you know what an amazing driver we had with RomeInLimo and Giovanni from Sorrento. He took us on a private tour/drive of the Amalfi Coast on July 22, 2022 for our 10th anniversary and he was a paragon of professionalism. Not only was he friendly, safe, and punctual, he went above and beyond to show all the wonderful sites of the Amalfi Coast and show us the best time. He introduced us to local vendors, took photos for us, sang Italian songs (wonderfully) and made our day of days extra special. I would, and have, recommend him to anyone looking to explore the Amalfi Coast in style and comfort. Excellent trip all around.
Had 17 pax…3 vehicles….they kept us together we had a great day. Also used them in Livorno & Civitavecchia Very dependable, always pleasant Will always look to RIL for our Italy tours and transfers
There truly are no words to explain our day in Rome, Sorrento & Positano, it was amazing. Fabio, our "driver" & Barbara, our English speaking guide that took us through the Vatican were the reason. Fabio was fabulous. His love and passion for what he does and his love & knowledge of Rome, Sorrento & Positano, is amazing. Fabio took us 2 see all of the sites & recommended the most amazing local restaurant for us to have an authentic lunch. He recommended 2 of the quintessential dishes of Rome, the Cacio e Pepe, a pasta dish made of black pepper & Pecorino Romano cheese, and spaghetti, as well as the Carbonara, an Italian pasta dish made with egg, hard cheese and pork cheek. Both were beyond mazing. He also recommended that we try the mozzarella cheese, it is amazing in Rome, it tastes nothing like mozzarella from the US. This tour is a fabulous way to see all the top sites and to see the city. Barbara took us through the Vatican and she was also fabulous. I highly recommend a guide as it is huge and very overwhelming if you have not been here before. She knew exactly where to go walk us though the 4 galleries & point out all of the highlights, the Sistine Chapel & the Basilica. She also took us to see the basement of the Vatican to see what was down below. If you have time, I would recommend that u climb the stairs of the Basilica so you can view it from the highest point & look down. Again, I can not recommend Fabio & Barbara & this "tour" enough. We will definitely be coming back 2 Rome & planning our time here with Fabio to take us through. Thank u again Fabio, Barbara & Romeintours for making our day more than we ever could have imagined!
Alex was awesome, so personable! We loved him! He took us all along the coast. We wanted to go to a ceramics shop and he brought us to one of the larger ones, it was wonderful! He pointed out all different sights as we drove. Positano was beautiful! We had a great time in Sorrento. Alex told us where to go for a great lunch and to buy lemon cello! He made our day so enjoyable! I will request him next time we are in Naples!
I must admit I was a little apprehensive booking three tours with Rome in Limo, thinking to myself how could a company have so many 5 star reviews. Well I must say Rome in Limo is amazing. if 10-stars was an option I am sure they would have achieved it. It first started out with the amazing service that Jany provided. Every time I had an issue or question Jany responded in a matter of minutes. She was fabulous. We ( four adults) booked three tours as part of a cruise we were taking. We had Alex as our driver in Naples. and Lucio as our guide in Pompeii. They were both fabulous, and were passionate about their areas of expertise. In Rome we had Enrico as our driver and Massimo (by request) as our Vatican Guide. Enrico was very professional and took great care of us. He went out of his way to include all the possible stops in Rome. I had read past reviews about Vatican tours and Massimo received great comments. He did not disappoint. He knew his way around the Vatican like the back of his had, He navigated the crowds and provided us with all the highlights. In Florence we had Fabrizio as our driver and Simona as our guide. Frabrizio was great showing us all the hidden gems in Florence and Simona was full of knowledge on the history of Rome and the paintings and art that we saw. I cannot recommend Rome in Limo enough! Amazing!
Alex picked us up from the port and was wonderful! He showed us Naples in all of its glory. We will definitely use this company again.
Vittorio was fantastic. Professional, kind and helped guiding us, in terms of what would be best to see given our timeframe. Very enjoyable trip and worth the money!
Seeing as there were 10 in our party, we had to take a minivan and a sedan to tour the Amalfi Coast (Positano) to Sorrento and, then, on to Pompeii. I can only remember the name of the driver of our car, Giovanni, but he and the other guide were very knowledgeable and informative. They knew when we needed to leave, which route to best follow, and how long we had to tour each town. It was a beautiful, delightful tour that each of us enjoyed very much - even the teenagers (who were not so happy about the early morning departure time). You cannot go wrong with RomeInLimo! (We, also, used them for our tour of Rome - excellent, as well!)
This was our second time using Rome In Limo (used them 2 years ago, also as cruise excursions). This time we chose to use private tours (rather than their excellent shared cruise excursion services), and we were really happy we chose this. On the first tour, from Naples, we were surprised and thrilled to see we had the same driver as two years ago, Alex! From Civitavecchia, we had Peter who was a fountain of knowledge. Both were complete gentlemen who customized our days to accommodate my Mum who uses a mobility scooter. I would highly recommend using Rome in Limo, and would request Alex and Peter again.
