We had such a wonderful time. Viator is my go-to for any shore excursions. Totally recommend this to anyone wanting to see the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii.

Itinerary
Meta di Sorrento is a perfect panoramic stop to admire the beauty of the Sorrentine Peninsula. Standing 111 meters above sea level, it offers spectacular views of Capri, Sorrento, and the Amalfi Coast, with vistas stretching from turquoise waters to the green hills surrounding the area. From this viewpoint, you can capture the very essence of the coastal landscape — golden beaches, cliffs, and gentle slopes descending toward the sea. A short but unmissable photo stop along the route to Sorrento.
The Li Galli islands form a tiny archipelago between Capri and Positano, one of the most evocative places not only in Campania, but in the entire Mediterranean. The archipelago consists of three islands, Gallo Lungo, La Rotonda, and La Castelluccia, which together form an extremely picturesque marine protected area.
Positano is perhaps a unique place in the world! It is a jewel of spontaneous architecture, nestled on the rocks overlooking the sea. Clusters of colorful houses, sometimes cubic in appearance, are built on often steep steps that descend to the beach, connected by alleys and long stairways.
Legend has it that the mythical Sirens lived in its sea and tempted Ulysses with their melodious song. And even today, when you go out onto that sea—with its blue and green reflections, in a thousand different shades depending on the play of the sun—you can imagine the Sirens emerging from the waves, beautiful and persuasive. But perhaps it is Sorrento itself that captivates and enchants with the scents of lemon and orange trees, with olive trees with dark, twisted trunks and silver leaves that move slowly, with a soft sound, in the wind coming from the sea, with rocks born from the distant fury of a volcano.
Pompeii is a city in Campania, located in the Gulf of Naples and on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius. It is a city with ancient origins: it began as an Oscan settlement, was later inhabited by the Samnites, and then, starting in the first century BC, was conquered by the Romans. A city buried by the eruption of Vesuvius. Today it is known as the city with one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. The Roman city was buried by lava following the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The lava and ash acted as a kind of cover that allowed the city to be preserved over the centuries and protected from the elements; for this reason, the city has remained intact and can be visited today. Note: the remaining time is for the round trip and the time spent between attractions.

Had a great private tour to Positano, Sorrento, and Pompei with my wife. Ciao Naples went over and above to give us a discounted private tour when the group tour fell through last minute. Very responsive and easy to work with. Marco was a fantastic and professional driver that picked us up on time right at our AirBNB. Would definitely book with Ciao Naples again.
We had a wonderful time being taken around the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii by Ciro. He was knowledgeable of all the places we drove through and visited. On top of that he was a delight to be around.
This full day tour of Sorrento, Positano, the Amalfi coast and Pompeii is absolutely stunning and great value for money considering how much ground cover in a single day. The scenery is breathtaking.
We had such a wonderful experience!!! Sometime right after Sorrento there was a landslide that closed the tunnel between Sorrento and Pompei. We had a timeline as we needed to make our ship gangway-up departure time and the landslide gave us a two hour delay. Our driver Paolo was so incredible!!! We just decided to shorten our Pompei visit and we made it back to our ship in time. He was incredible! I highly recommend this company and this tour. The company was wonderful to communicate with, and even though we had circumstances beyond anyone’s control, the company and driver were superb . Highly recommend! 12 out of 10. Would definitely schediule again.
We had a really lovely day visiting Pompeii, Sorrento and Positano. Our driver Ciro was such a nice and chatty guy, and we really enjoyed the driver and conversation with him throughout the day.
An absolutely amazing experience seeing the exquisite Amalfi coast and historical Pompeii.Very well organized!
Great experience! We saw so much in one day. Our driver Paulo was the best!!! It was a very long day but Paulo was there for us all the way. Always arrived at meeting points as scheduled. He was also a great driver— traffic was crazy but he took it in stride and masterfully guided the van through some very small passes!
Experience was so good. Enjoyed time to explore on our own with knowledgeable information for our guide Paolo. The history of Amalfi coast and walking audio tour of Pompeii was amazing!
A very informational trip starting with the Piccadilly ceramics. The Amalfi coast was beautiful, Ciro stopped at the little pullouts and he took our picture, then recommended a very good place for lunch. We ended our tour in Pompeii!!
Wonderful day visiting stunning Positina & Sorrento followed by Pompeii, the driver Chiro provided us useful audio guide.He was an excellent driver & so good at negotiating the quint, narrow, twisty roads of Positina. All in all, a fabulous day.
I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional service provided during this tour. They went above and beyond to ensure a positive experience for all participants. Ciro’s understanding and patience as a driver and guide were invaluable.
It was a good tour. We would’ve liked a little more history and background of the cities we visited. And more detailed information about visiting. Pompeii would’ve been very helpful.
Ciro was the best guide! Easy meet up, great pacing for each stop and fun, interesting commentary during the whole trip
We booked a private tour with this company, Davide was really nice and helpful organizing our day! Ciro our driver was fantastic!! He shared a lot of information with us for each location we were visiting!
We had a good day with Paolo, he was friendly and punctual. I would recommend this tour if you have limited time to see a few things.
We were really happy with our tour. Our driver Paolo was fantastic, very easy to understand and flexible. Gave great details about local sites.
Paulo was our driver today and we could not have asked for a better driver in what was tight , winding road conditions. His knowledge and attitude to please was refreshing. We had plenty of time to explore the various stops. And Paulo’s recommendation for lunch was first class. Thank you Paulo
An amazing tour of the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, and Pompeii! The breathtaking scenery, charming towns, and fascinating history made it an unforgettable experience. Everything was perfectly organized. A special thanks to our driver, Paolo, who was exceptionally professional, friendly, and accommodating. He made the journey comfortable and enjoyable, and his kindness and helpful attitude truly made a difference. Highly recommended!
Paolo was a very accommodating and knowledgeable tour guide. It was a comfortable experience and he went out of his way to make sure we had a memorable time!
Great experience!! Professional guide and driver!! Highly recommend this tour!! Beautiful place and great times!!
Great tour! Our tour guide was Ciro and he provided a great customer service and was attentive to our needs. I would highly recommend this tour.
This was a lovely tour of Sorrento, Amalfi Coast and Pompeii. Paolo was our driver and was very professional and affable. He gave us time to allow us to explore the shops in Positano, but was also considerate that we needed to avoid spending too much time so that we did not miss out on seeing Pompeii. This was about an 8 hour excursion and we needed this time - Pompeii is an expansive site, it is important to give yourself time to see this adequately. An additional entrance fee to the archaeological site will need to be paid (about 20 Euros). We had the pleasure of been driven in a comfortable vehicle and a driver that is very knowledgeable of Naples. During the Pompeii tour we were given headphones to listen to an expert tour guide as we followed her through the labyrinth streets and corridors of this historical site. A splendid tour that has sparked our desire to revisit Naples, thanks to Paolo!
Our driver Paolo was a terrific driver. Very knowledgeable and took very good care of us during the tour. Always attentive to our every needs. Thank you for a lovely day.
Ciro is a great guide and will tell you what is best to do and see for the entire trip. Visited Positano, Sorrrento and Pompeii. Heavy traffic even though not high season yet.
We loved our tour guide Oresto! He knew all the places for visiting and making a nice day to see key sights and shopping. The winery was so nice and lovely. Thanks Oresto!
Paulo was an excellent driver throughout our trip in Italy! He handled all of our arrivals and departures from Napoli seamlessly, making transportation completely stress-free. He took us on wonderful day trips to Positano on the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, and Pompei, always making sure we saw the best sights and had time to enjoy each destination. Paulo was professional, friendly, punctual, and very knowledgeable about the area. He shared great recommendations along the way and pointed out beautiful sites we may have otherwise missed. His service truly made our trip more enjoyable and comfortable. We highly recommend Paulo to anyone looking for reliable transportation and a fantastic local experience in the Napoli and Amalfi Coast area!
Ciro got us there and back safely, with local knowledge and advice…making for a fun trip. Davide managed the arrangements perfectly…recommended.
Ciro was our guide and driver. He was wonderful. Very informative, knowledgeable and helpful. He provided enough time to enjoy each location and stopped at the locations with beautiful views for pictures.
Paolo was amazing! Professional, personable, and kind. He was also patient with us. We connected very well with him. He was flexible and willing to go above and beyond. We can’t wait until next time to ask Paolo to take us to other beautiful places in the area. The van was in good condition and very clean. The company was good to work with as well.
We had an incredible experience on our Pompeii, Sorrento, and Amalfi Coast private deluxe tour! Everything was seamless and thoughtfully planned from start to finish. Paolo was an excellent and friendly driver who made the journey enjoyable and stress-free. He shared great local tips and recommendations that really enhanced our day. Anna was a fantastic guide through the ruins of Pompeii—her knowledge and storytelling brought the history to life in such a memorable way. We truly appreciated the level of service and care throughout the tour. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to explore this beautiful region in a meaningful and comfortable way!
Our driver and the owner of the company were incredibly friendly and helpful before the trip even started. They are well versed in working with cruisers. The guide Ciro was lovely wnd easy to talk to. He gave great info as we drove. Took us to beautiful sights and arranged an unexpected guided tour through Pompeii. Highly recommend this company
We had a great day on the tour. Guide was knowledgable about the area’s and very friendly. Enough time to explore at each stop. The communication from the company was fantastic.
Dependable. Punctual. Flexible. Professional. I won’t be long here…because no one reads long reviews. Instead of 9am-7pm, we had from 1pm-7pm. That didn’t matter because Raffela and Davide made sure we still got to see it all…do it all…and get back before all aboard. We didn’t have to worry about anything. COULD NOT RECOMMEND THESE GUYS MORE!

Ciro was a fantastic driver and tour guide. He was informative, fun to talk with, and kept us on schedule. The stops we made for photos and the locations he chose to drop us off were perfect for the amount of time we had to sightsee. We saw Positano, Sorrento and then had a guided tour in Pompeii. Even tho it rained in the morning, we had a wonderful day and experience
Excellent guide, Antonio! Very knowledgeable, friendly, local. Van very nice, the sites were great, lots of local history. You really need an entire day in Pompeii. Would very definetly book with these folks again.
Our guide Ciro is an amazing guide! He is very knowledgeable & proud about Naples & rightly so. Our tour through Naples, Positano, Sorrento on the Amalfi coast & Pompeii was filled with history & fun facts. Time is allowed for pictures & shopping. Get lemon cello gelato in a frozen lemon. Delizioso! Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes through Pompeii. Ask for Ciro to be your guide! Enjoy!
Ciro was an amazing driver and guide. He was fun, spoke with heart and was really passionate when explaining anything to us. Great experience!
What a perfect day for a drive along the Amalfi coast with Davide. We learned so much about Naples, Sorrento and Positano. Pompeii was magnificent! Truly enjoyed the day with Davide and appreciated his knowledge of the local foods and desserts….tried as many things as possible. Thanks!!!!
Carmine was amazing! My husband and I are on our honeymoon, and this tour was a day trip we took while staying in Rome. This may have been the highlight of our trip! He was knowledgeable, and so so kind. My husband felt sick for a moment, and Carmine was so kind and accommodating. He gave us ample time in each location, took amazing photos for us, and talked to us about history, family stories, and everything in between. He was an impeccable driver, and knew where to go and how to direct us on the best places to eat, shop, take photos, etc. This tour was amazing and we’re already talking about coming back! Would recommend to anyone, especially with Carmine!!
Our Driver, Ciro, was great and very informative. Excellent recommendations and stopped along the way for incredible photo opportunities. We wanted to visit Pompeii, but didn't want to spend a whole day. This worked out nicely for our interests. I can't comment on peak season. Our time was during the slower winter season and we experienced less traffic or crowds. There was a good balance of time at each location. Well worth it. Thank You!
Great tour, our guide Ciro was so nice and helpful . Beautiful places. The weather was so good we could take lots of beautiful pictures.
We took the tour from Naples to Amalie Coast and stopped at Sorrento, Positano, and Pompeii. Our driver, Ciro was excellent and gave us a lot of good information about the area and the places we visited. It was good introduction to the area and good tour to take if short on time.
We had the best day as a family exploring the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii. Ciro was fantastic. We had great conversation whilst we were driving and he took us to the best photo spots and showed us the best that the Amalfi Coast had to offer. We couldn't have asked for a better day. Definitely recommend. Thanks Ciro you gave us the most memorable day. Definitely 5 stars.
Davide was excellent with his communication and helped us out tremendously. He was very much wanting to make sure we had an excellent trip. Our guide, Ciro, was also great and took great care of us! It was such an amazing day and have them to thank for it!!!
The driver Ciro was very helpful friendly and cheerful. Loved the service. He gave us information about every destination very well!
Great service, wear walking shoes! I am five months pregnant and relatively active already and this was a doable tour.
Fabulous trip especially with Ciro. He made sure we got to see everything and made recommendations for food and places to see. We were extra lucky as it was November so the roads were a lot quieter and meant we did get a little longer at the towns and at Pompeii. Ciro pointed out lots of good things along the way and even dropped us all off near hotels and for us to the famous Michels Pizzaria.
We did an all-day group tour with Ciao Naples on Sunday, 19th October 2025: From Naples - Tour of the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento and Pompeii. We visited Positano, Sorrento and Pompeii on this tour, which was structured as free time to explore each destination. The tour group was quite a small one, and we shared the tour with two fellow tourists whom we had not met previously - the lovely Sandy and the lovely Joanne. We had an absolutely brilliant time on our tour and it is one of the best tours that we have ever taken! This was not only made possible by the excellent company of Sandy and Joanne, but with our wonderful tour guide and driver, Raffaele, who was very engaging, very personable, warm and friendly, and whose expert knowledge of the region greatly enhanced our experience. Raffaele exhibited exemplary customer service skills. His enthusiasm and attentiveness were very apparent. We must also give a special call-out to Davide who was great at keeping in touch with us from the office - before, during and after our tour, and who sought to ensure that everything was going okay and that we were having a good time. We really appreciated this. Nothing was too much trouble for Raffaele, who cheerfully answered our questions and who happily chatted with us as he was driving. No awkward silence, because Raffaele was engaging in lots of conversation and speaking fluent English. This was a wonderful help to us, as we don't speak Italian. During the trip, we did some scenic stops and were able to take some wonderful shots. Raffaele also took some pictures of us. On one of the scenic stops, we tried a sample of limoncello from Salvatore, whose mobile shop was set up in one of the scenic rest areas high above Sorrento with breathtaking views of the bay. We really enjoyed our Positano, Sorrento and Pompeii tour. A very big " thank you" to Ciao Naples for organising this tour, to Sandy and Joanne, our fellow tourists for helping to make our day so wonderful and especially to the architect of this most memorable and enjoyable day - our outstanding tour guide and driver, Raffaele. With our very warmest regards Celeste and Mark
