Tour was amazing. We did Almalfi, Positano, and Pompeii Ruins. Marco was a great tour guide the entire day showing us a few extra surprises along the way. Josef was great with communication and easy pick up and drop off at the cruise port. Pompeii tour guide is a must as there is so much to learn and Rosa was very informative.

Marco was terrific. It rained in Amalfi and he was able to quickly pivot and adjust itinerary. He was knowledgeable and enjoyable to spend the day with. Highly recommend working with them for a great trip!
Car was to small Driver did not speak or understand English and did not know where the places were we wanted to visit
Marco was a great driver and tour guide! We customized our trip, so he picked us up at our cruise ship and took us to St Elmo Castle, Naples Underground and Erculano Archaeological site, as well a great pizza restaurant and other sites that were awesome. We highly recommend this tour!
The driver was friendly and professional. He shared his knowledge during the drive. He got us everywhere we had planned in a timely manner.
Speaks English & shares his naples culture. Great driver & wants to be helpful along the way!!! Marco likes to know clientele
We were so happy with this company and with Joseph in particular. The car was new and a luxury vehicle. Our driver was knowledgeable and pleasant. We had a wonderful day. I highly recommend them.
This was totally an awesome thing to do! Our driver suggested the hot spots, and we had a delicious lunch and an incredible Italian restaurant! Driver was fun, and safe! Gave a lot of advice and even stopped at the place where lemoncello was made. Had lots of samples.
Marco was our driver and did an excellent job in describing areas of interest and catered to our requests throughout the day. Would 100% recommend this tour and driver.
Alessandro is a perfect guide and knows how to transform a museal visit in an emotional experience. Perfect
The driver Roman was polite and communicated with us before pick up. The tour at Pompeii was an extra $190 euros. He took us to a beautiful location for lunch. Unfortunately diue to the long drive to the coast and short dock time our visit to Amalfi was short.
Great experience, Marco was an excellent driver and very helpful, polite and and informative.He told us about the history of the area, agriculture and cheese making and we in return told him about Icelandic sheep farming 😆
We were able to fully customize our own tour! Marco was an excellent guide! We toured Amalfi, Ravello, and Herculaneum. Marco had us back to the ship ontime and even showed us a favorite spot of his. Highly recommend this company!! Thank you
We did a custom private tour. Our driver Marco picked us up in Amalfi with all our luggage and took us an all day tour. Along the way we stopped at a few photo spots and he gave us some fun and interesting commentary. He and Joseph arranged for our Pompeii and Herculaneum tours with a guide. They also arranged a winery lunch and tasting near Mt Vesuvius. And eventually dropped us at our hotel in Naples. It was probably our best day during the week. Everything went smoothly and it was so fun.
Roman was punctual and flexible to provide us with a trip we will not forget . The region was beautiful and worth visiting
We traveled with my dad who uses an electric wheelchair so we used a guide for Pompei. Our guide had so much knowledge about the history. We learned so much and had a great day!
Marco was a fantastic guide, he not only gave us lessons in history about Napoli and the Campania area but he gave us a lot of great laughs along the way. We went to Benevento to see where my partners family came from and got to see the Roman theatre. We then travelled to Napoli and Marco recommended a delicious meal of Genovese pasta which was the best pasta I’d had in Italy so far. A lot of fun and a great tour overall, to end our final day in Italy. I can’t recommend this enough! 10/10
The car was clean, driver Ciro was nice. I was just disappointed, that we did not make any stops along the way to take pictures, just once right before Positano. We did have time, because we arrived back 45 minutes early. Also, I was told by Josef they would make reservations for lunch at the restaurant I was interested in. They failed to do that, and the day before the restaurant had no availability. It was a very winding drive so we do appreciate them driving us.
Guisseppi was a wonderful tour guide as well as very respectful and kind. He gave us a few ideas and took us to the amzaing Amalfi, Positano, Ravello and other sights to see and enjoy. We tried the famous lemon ice cream and other goodies. We enjoyed our whole trip with him as well.
Amazing service , we had four vans and drivers were very friendly Only think our guide at Pompei had very thick accent and very difficult to understand
Our driver was on time and very flexible to see the Amalfi Coast. We asked for an English speaking driver and although he did speak English it was very hard to understand what he was saying. I know he was giving us good information about what we were seeing but we didn't understand him. He stopped to give us a tour of a ceramics studio and shop. We said no to that to save time to see more sights.
We had a wonderful private tour of 3 towns with our driver Marco . He was an excellent driver and tour guide , and we enjoyed spending the day with him . Highly recommend!
We had a 6 hour tour from the cruise port. We went to Amalfi for shopping and lunch. Lunch we picked ourselves at Da Maria in Amalfi and it was perfect for our family of 4. Along the way to Amalifi we saw amazing views of Mt. Vesuvius and the coastal views were simply stunning. Marco shared lots of interesting facts about the area. We stopped at Pompeii for an hour on the way back. Marco warned us we would want 2 hours there and he was right. We will come back and spend more time next time. We had a great day and the driving here is insanity. Marco was very good at navigating the roads and we were glad to have his expertise!
Marco was the best driver for us today! We told him exactly where we wanted to go and he made it happen. He even reserved a special lunch spot for us that had the best view of positano. We had the best day along the coast!
Wow! Wow! Wow! This was our favorite stop of the trip (Barcelona, Florence, Marseille , Rome) - due much in part to the incredible experience Josef provided. He was SUPER communicative leading up to the visit - which was SO helpful in us being able to trust and enjoy the day. I had read another review and asked for the same thing, bc it sounded amazing: amalfi coast - Limoncello - Pompeii. They were not wrong. Josef was not only incredibly informative during the drive to each location, but upon arrival, he provided recommendations that were perfect additions, from shopping to dining and more. You can tell he’s a homegrown local by his wealth of knowledge and ability to drive in conditions I would not trust many to :). He was on time, helped manage the days itinerary, and helped assuage any fears we had of missing the cruise boat with his attention to traffic management and time spent in each location. We can’t wait to return, and won’t hesitate to contact Josef when we do. Thank you for a GREAT experience.
Book this Naples tour!!! Josef was just the best. He was friendly and communication was clear and effective. Josef is a wealth of knowledge on all things Napoli!. He kept us (x2 adults and x 2 teens 12 and 14 year old) engaged and taught us all about the history of the beautiful city. We tasted delicious pizza and gelato on Josef’s recommendations 👌🏼 He even made a detour to the Napoli football store for my son! Josef was in constant communication with us and we always knew where to meet him. He navigated the busy streets with ease! Looking for a Naples day tour? Josef is definitely your man! Grazie Josef your passion for Naples showed us your city in a whole new light. 🇮🇹🥰 Book Josef and this tour- just the best. Grazie!
Transportation was good. Our driver met us at the correct place and time, and took us to the places we wanted to visit. Maybe out expectations were off. We had a driver, noting else, she did not talk or tell us about anything the city or places alone the route. no offer of WIFI or water during the trip.
It was great! We did a lot and our driver was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was on time and gave us great recommendations
Very patient and helpful. Supported our ambitious itinerary on a very hot day. Gave friendly feedback on our plans that was helpful.
Our tour was wonderful! We needed two cars to accommodate our large group and the cars arrived on time and were nicely appointed and air conditioned! We were able to see all the sites we wanted to (sorrento and Pompeii). Unfortunately, we had a bad experience with The restaurant recommended for lunch. Our food took over an hour to be served (we believe they forgot to submit our order). We would not have agreed to this restaurant had we know this. But we understand this was not the fault of the tour guide. Although they should not recommend this restaurant in the future. The tour itself was wonderful. I would book with them again.
Marco spoke great English, was amazing with young kids, and was flexible for our individual needs. He took us to a great lunch location as well.
This was an incredible experience!! Josef made sure our day was planned out perfectly with excellent communication. Our driver was wonderful and made our day very special. Highly recommend!!!!
We had an amazing time from beginning to end. Josef sent us all the links ahead of time to book our tours at our times and Marco picked us up. He was early waiting for us either a sign. He had cold water, nice Mercedes sprinter and cool Air waiting for us at all times. We did the Herculaneum ruins with archaeologist tour guide and Mount Vesuvius. Then Marco took us to the city center where we had some lunch, walked around had some gelato and gave us a little bit of history lessons throughout our trip. 100% recommended! We will coming back to Italy and hopefully do more tours with them…
My husband and our friends travelling Italy from Canada on a royal Caribbean cruise so total of 4 people. We decided to book a private tour instead of booking with Royal Caribbean. I get people might be concerned not booking with the cruise however this was one of my best experiences I have booked. We did not have to pile on a bus with 40 other people. Booking with Josef was so easy. He responded to all my questions and concerns and made me feel so comfortable that we made the right decision. Our driver was Guiseppe and hands down a fantastic driver. He was early to pick us up so we did not have to wait. He messaged on What’s app to help us find him amongst the other drivers. We drove out to Ravello where we had an hour to wonder. Giuseppe told us the highlights and showed us on the map to make most of our time well spent. We then went to Amalfi same told us the bonuses of that town. He surprised us with a restaurant for lunch in Positano that had fantastic food and overlooked the town and ocean. We stopped randomly so we could get the best photo for our memories. He also surprised us with a tour of the limoncello factory and gave us a tour where we got to sample some limoncello and of course we purchased some. We then travelled to Pompeii where they arranged a private tour for 2 hours learning the fascinating history. Our guide was informative personally and really took the time to make sure we new the amazing history of Pompeii. If you are ever in this area on a cruise by far worth every penny to book with Josef and if you are lucky to get Giuseppe as your driver you will not be disappointed. We arrived back with penalty of time to get back on the boat. Memories that will last forever with us. Thank you Josef and Giuseppe! So professional.

Excellent tour through the Almalfi coast. Guiseppi was very attentive to my wife who had difficulty walking. Stopped for photo opportunities. He picked out a great winery to visit. Highly recommended to use him.
We had a private tour of Naples and the Amalfi coast booked for September 13, 2024 with another tour operator through Viator. We booked this tour over a month ago, but the tour operator canceled the tour without any explanation two days before the date. This put us a bad predicament, because the private tour was also supposed to take us to our Viator booked 2-hour authentic Neapolitan pizza making class. I called Viator, obviously unhappy that this tour operator, canceled the tour on what is turning out to be a very busy tour operating date. The rep with Viacom tried to book us a replacement private tour with the understanding that it needed to be flexible/customizable like the initial tour. This is when Viacom booked us with Josef of Amalfi Driver. I received a message from Josef on September 11, 2024 inquiring about our itinerary. I emphatically stated that the most important item was that we had the authentic Neapolitan pizza making class from 11am - 1pm and that we would like to work Positano, Amalfi, and Furore in the tour to take photos. I also informed him that my wife was disabled and would be bringing a foldable wheelchair or foldable walker. I NEVER said that my wife would be walking around at any of these places. After I thought that I made it quite clear, Josef was still message late into the night of September 11, 2024 into well after midnight of September 12, 2024. His last message made it apparent that he did not thoroughly read or comprehend my earlier message. He mentioned about spending an hour for lunch in Naples at an authentic pizzeria or we could go to the one that I mention in the touristy section of Naples. He missed the point t hat it was a pizza making CLASS. He then tried to talk us out of going to Positano and Furore, because these are "vertical cities" and not accessible by wheelchair. Again, I never said that my wife would be accessing these cities when I take photos. I stopped responding to Josef after midnight, because my wife and I had an early full-day tour of Rome the morning of September 12, 2024 (we are on a cruise ship). After the tour, I checked the emails on my phone and was advised at 2:52pm on September 12, 2024 that Josef canceled the tour because I didn't respond to his message sent after midnight. Again, he was not paying attention to what I wrote in my initial message to him and there was no urgency. The tour was already paid and I was within the 24-hour no refund booking time. He could have waited until I returned from our Rome private tour to receive a response. The booking was already confirmed. Now we will be in port on September 13, 2024 with no available private tours in Naples and within the 24-hour no refund period for the pizza making class. Josef also replied that since I didn't respond, he had other last-minute request for tours for which he was trying to take care. Again, the tour was already paid and I could not cancel. Where does he lose?? When I advised Josef that this was unacceptable and that I was going to write a review reflecting such, he was only concerned by his misperceived notion that I was trying to "...hurt his business." This is not the way to do business. I have already filed a complaint with Viator.
Marco was a great guide. He was so knowledgeable about the area and created a perfect, customized day where we explored Sorrento, made pizza and had an amazing tour of Pompeii. Everything was on time, and created to fit our needs. I’d highly recommend Marco.
I selected the Amalfi customized 8 hour tour. We went to Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi Coast drive. Had lunch at La Tagliatte restaurant which was also amazing. Highly recommended tour, the drivers were amazing and very professional.
Giuseppe was extremely professional, nice, and caring. We had the best day ever. We love this company. Josef went above and beyond to book a last minute ride for us to the train and helped us navigate through a precarious situation. We love them. Please use this company they are the best ever.
We used AmalfiDriver.com on August 31 for a private day for 4 people between Naples and Amalfi, with Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum, and Pompeii on the agenda. We had an excellent day, perfectly organized from start to finish. Marco, who drove us all day, was punctual, attentive, and very professional. He also helped make the trip particularly pleasant thanks to his anecdotes and his wealth of information about the history and the region. Cold water was available to us at will in the vehicle, which was very appreciated in outside heat of over 40°C. The organization was truly perfect: we didn't have to worry about anything. The entrance tickets were included, the archaeologist guide had been organized by the provider, and we just had to let ourselves be driven and guided throughout the day, while enjoying the magnificent sites visited. Francesco, our guide for Herculaneum and Pompeii, was fantastic: extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and very friendly. His explanations contributed greatly to the richness of our visits. Marco also perfectly managed the pace of the day, leaving us time to have lunch at a restaurant before coming to pick us up to continue our journey. A big thank you to Giuseppe (Josef) and Marco for this magnificent day and for the quality of their service. We recommend AmalfiDriver.com without any reservation to anyone who wishes to discover this region in excellent conditions, with impeccable organization and truly personalized service.
We enjoyed the services of AmalfiDriver for a full personalized day from Naples to Amalfi, with an excursion to Mount Vesuvius, visits to Pompeii and Herculaneum with a private archaeologist guide, then drop-off in Amalfi in the late afternoon. The day was entirely organized, tickets included, archaeologist, and lunch restaurant stop by the provider (we were 4 adults from the same family). Francesco, our archaeologist guide who accompanied us through the ruins, is extremely knowledgeable and really enriched our visits. It was a magnificent day, Marco our driver-guide was very punctual and attentive, and gave us a lot of information about the region, with very interesting historical and linguistic anecdotes. His good humor and availability made this trip a real moment of pleasure. The air-conditioned vehicle was very spacious and comfortable and we had fresh water at will, which was really appreciated with the very high heat outside. Thank you infinitely to Marco and Giuseppe for their very professional service. That day will remain etched in our memories with a big smile. We recommend them without hesitation to any visitor who might need a tour or transport in the region.
