Itinerary
just to give you an idea i'll list you some details of one type of tour. I do usually suggest to my clients to start the tour quite early. . . by 8am, it'll be the best way to avoid the rush hours traffic in Naples. In approx. 1 hour we'll reach Sorrento, where obviously you'll have the chance of visiting the ancient centre town. After Sorrento, we'll time to go finally along the breathtaking Amalfi coast. . . several stops on the way , if you desire, for taking amazing pictures and even there time to visit the centre town (where big buses will not be allowed to go to) and time for lunch too, of course. After the visit of the coast will be then time to reach the Ancient Pompei, since the archeological area is massive i'd suggest to stop for approx. 2 hours. . . overthere, if you desire I could arrange avery good professional local tour guide for a Private Tour into the ruins, otherwise you could explore by yourself too. After Pompei you'll be driven to the Cruise

This was absolutely amazing. Our driver was Manuel and he met us at port and we drove to Positano and Sorrento. We were able to tailor our day with him giving us the best recommendations. Five Stars all the way.
A great way to see some of the most popular sights of the southern coast. With extremely narrow roads and scooters squeezing a third lane out of the middle, Italy is a nerve-wracking place to drive. And we had our fill of big, cattle-herding tour buses earlier in the trip. So we greatly enjoyed having a private chauffeur and comfortable sedan (with a moon roof!) for this tour. The driver also set us up with an excellent private guide for the visit to Pompeii. Paola, our guide, was knowledgeable not only about the history of the site but also the best way to navigate it to see the highlights while avoiding crowds. Positano was absolutely beautiful but bustling with tourists. So we skipped some of the shopping in favor of an outstanding lunch at a shaded, outdoor cafe gently cooled by a misting system. I am still dreaming of the gorgeous lava stone table we admired in one of the shops along the way, but couldn’t quite justify the purchase price. Maybe next time!
Manuel was The Best! He is fun, informative, we all laughed a lot! We highly recommend Italydriver! Thank you so much Manuel ❤️ ps, what an excellent driver!!!
This was great from the very start! Umberto and Manu truly care about their customers. Umberto personally called to confirm the pick up location from the very moment that we booked this tour. at the last minute we even decided to book a guided tour of Pompeii which Umberto made all of the arrangements for us. Manu has a wonderful sense of humor, is very accommodating, he puts 110% in how he treats each one. There were six of us and we all felt the same way. If you are looking for a tour guide this is the right one! Grazie Mille Umberto and Manu - we are so grateful for you!
Most important, you need to understand the driver doesn’t accompany you to any sites so you need to do your own research of what to see. Would either recommend getting the audio guide or a private guide for Pompeii; don’t think an audio guide is available for Sorrento. A guide isn’t necessary for Positano. Since we’d been to Pompeii before & had a private guide, we wish we would have opted to spend more time in Sorrento & just skipped Pompeii. We didn’t have enough time in Sorrento & we regret that. Our guide Manuel was enthusiastic & none of our comments are due to Manuel; we just needed to be better prepared on what there is to see in Sorrento & each key site there. Don’t recommend trying to see all three sites in one day. We didn’t understand that although this was a private guide, he/she doesn’t walk around with you to highlight the sights. If you do all of the research & understand the restrictions & limitations, Manuel did a great job. We don’t recommend dealing with Viator however, terrible with customer satisfaction & the owner of this particular tour company was also not good to deal with. Worst experience we’ve ever had (Viator & tour company).
Manuel our driver was simply the best and most knowledgeable driver I have experienced in Naples. He made me and my family feel at home. His hospitality was incredible. I would highly recommend him and his company Italy Driver to anyone. I will be using them again on my next trip back to Naples. Thank you!!!!
Umberto was wonderful to work with as well as he was also the driver! We booked late last night and last minute and he was so responsive, thorough, kind, and friendly. He was able to accommodate us even at that late date for booking. Instantly felt comfortable and assured that he would be meeting us at the port in Naples. Excellent driver, so knowledgeable about the area of Naples and the Amalfi Coast. Will 100% reach out to him again next time we are in Naples or nearby areas. Highly recommend!
When had an amazing time. 11 out of 10. So happy we did this. I would recommend anyone to do the same. Family company!!
Manuel was the best driver. Speaks great English and knows his way around. He kept us entertained also! Was just a wonderful young man. Definitely made our trip very memorable.
We were a group of 5 women traveling from the US. I found Umberto (the dad) in a google search and he quickly called me to see what our needs were. His English is perfect and he made great recommendations. He mentioned that either he or one of his sons would be driving. His son, Manuel took us for 2 days and we had the best time! Manuel was a true pleasure to be with. He’s proud to show you his country and his #1 priority is pleasing his guests. Nothing was too much for him! His recommendations were spot on and hes truly skilled as a calm driver on winding roads ( one of the 5 suffers from motion sickness was but she was ok with his attention to her issue, even along those roads). His genuine eagerness to please and his vivacious personality made him a joy to be with. We’ll only use Umberto and his pans when we visit this area again.we truly appreciate the care they offered us. it’s one of the great memories we have from an amazing trip.
Thank you Antonio and Umberto for an unforgettable day !! Great service , prompt and so friendly !! Ciao for now but we’ll be back
Antonio was very friendly and helpful and stopped to help us take nice photos. Beautiful spots and easy access with our guide and helped make it a memorable day
Manuel was great guide and driver. He’s a friendly local who knows the area and loves his country. He spoke very good English and was easy to understand and communicate with. Driving in Naples and surrounding areas can be nerve racking but Manuel was calm and an excellent navigator. The company set up a private archeological guide in Pompeii, the highlight of our day. Because of the time constrictions, we did not get to explore as much as we would have liked but 100% recommend Manuel and this tour.
We were a group of 4 needing a ride from Rome to Positano . Umberto was very attentive and got on it right away, he sent us a wonderful driver named Alfredo who was kind and very professional. He made sure we got to Positano in time for our Ferry and called our host to make sure we didn't worry about our luggage while we toured Capri. I will definitely use him again! five stars all the way! thank you Umberto and Alfredo!
This was a Fantastic experience. We would definitely use them again when we are in the area. Everything was perfectly on schedule and without any hiccups. Our driver was very pleasant and we enjoyed great conversation during our travels
The trip was absolutely breath-taking. Sorrento and Positano are amazing! So worth the time and the money. The tour company owner and tour guide both did a wonderful job of communicating with us about our progress and timing. The guide also took us to a restaurant in Sorrento where I had the best pizza of my life!! Pompeii was amazing as well. The guide was very knowledgeable and funny. Be aware that there is an extra charge for entry into Pompeii and for the tour guide there.
Umberto and his son guided us for about a week from Naples all the way around the Amalfi coast. They are very professional, friendly and customer oriented beginning at the first contact and after the last drop off at the airport. It was a great experience. Thank you Umberto and Antonio.
We had a large group. Umberto and his son we able to accommodate us on short notice. They were excellent guides. Some of our party wanted to see Pompeii and Vesuvius. Umberto picked us up at our hotel, drive us to the sights and even fit a winery with lunch into the day. His English is excellent, which made it comfortable for all the guests. Umberto and his sons are professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him!
Emberto was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable being a local and friendly. He was a very safe driver which is important when you are driving in this busy traffic. His English was great and had lived in the US. This made it easier for him to relate to our questions.
Umberto was amazing! He even got a personal guide for us in Pompeii and made lunch reservations at the most amazing restaurant with a fabulous view in Positano!! He even sang for us in the van! He is spectacular....book this!!
Umberto is a great driver, we had a last minute hiccup with our car reservation from Naples to drive around Amalfi coast, and we found Umberto on the Internet. He was immediately very responsive on WhatsApp, proposed a great itinerary and was very clear in communication. He arrived promptly on time, the car was very clean and comfortable with air conditioning. Umberto likes to talk about Naples and surrounding area, but isn’t overly talkative so there is time to relax as well. He recommended a great restaurant in Positano for lunch as well. We really enjoyed the day and would highly recommend using Umberto rather than renting a car given narrow roads / constant traffic / parking challenges in the Amalfi coast!
We had the pleasure of meeting Umberto and enjoying the most fantastic 1 day excursion when visiting Naples on a cruise. We were 4 adult passengers 1 8yr old and 1 1yr old. We visited sorrento, positano and pompei. All beautiful and interesting. Umberto was very friendly, organised and extremely knowledgeable. We all thoroughly enjoyed our time with him and would 100% recommend him to anyone wishing to see as much as possible on a days visit to this fabulous part of Italy.
Naples was the last stop in Italy after a 10 day tour of the country starting in the North for me & my wife. We booked a full day private tour of the Amalfi Coast in advance and I was in constant touch with Umberto on Whatsapp to plan for the pickup since our accommodation was a little hard to find, and that had me worried. Umberto is extremely prompt in all communications and ensured that we did not need to worry. Extremely friendly, courteous and also around to make us comfortable during our entire trip. He is the reason that I fell in love with Italian music - Thanks to his amazing collection which played all through our trip. Infact he even gave us a CD of his collection. The entire day was fairly easy going and yet we covered all the planned locations comfortably, thanks to Umberto being highly organised, without making us feel any pressure of time. He stopped at all the great spots for us to take pictures, shared lots of information about the area and infact the trip felt more like a family outing getting to know each other and about our families, than a stranger taking us around. Our accommodation was a bit out of the way - Umberto without a second thought dropped us at our doorstep & helped us organise the airport drop with Pietro. It is people like Umberto who make a vacation become a memory of a lifetime. I would also like to thank Pietro for being a thoughtful person with excellent Customer Service approach - he went out of the way to open an Umbrella for me as it started raining and patiently waited for us while we were finishing our rushed up breakfast. I highly recommend Italydrivers and my heartfelt thanks to Umberto for making our last few days in Italy, a memory to cherish.
This was an amazing day. My wife, my 8 year old son, and myself took the train from Rome down to Naples and had this tour booked. I was a little nervous booking this purely based on these online reviews, but everything went perfectly smooth from the coordination ahead of time, to the train station pickup, to the beautiful drive, the choice photo locations, and the recommended restaurants. Umberto made the drive entertaining, made us feel safe, spoke great English, and had a very comfortable van. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and will book him again if we are ever in the area,
What an amazing experience...Got Umberto from a friend of ours. We must have spoken/WhatsApp chatted a dozen times. He was so accommodating and re-assuring (our first trip to Italy off of a RC cruise). He picked us up in a spotless Mercedes van (well air-conditioned during Jun-Jul heat wave) and made sure we made all of the best stops in our limited time available. Amalfi coast, Positano, and Sorrento (made an awesome lunch recommendation). Amazing knowledge of Italy, current and past. We felt like family by the time he dropped us off. He also connected us with drivers/tour guides for La Spezia (Florence/Pisa) and Rome. All were equally as friendly and knowledgeable. We highly recommend Umberto.

I booked Italy Driver, Umberto, 5 years ago when my husband and I 1st went to the Amalfi Coast. We booked Umberto again last month when we brought the whole family of 9, ages 10 to 73 years old. We needed two vans due to the large group. Enrico drove the 2nd Van. We had the best day! Umberto and Enrico were AWESOME! They frequently stopped to take pictures of us with the most spectacular views! We went to Sorrento, where we shopped for souvenirs and leather purses and bags. We enjoyed Lemon granite from a fruit stand on the side of the road, absolutely delicious, highly recommend! Then off to Positano, where we ate at the best restaurant with a gorgeous view of the coast. You can find my review that is already posted. Lastly, we went to Pompeii. This was not on our original plan, but I called him the night before and asked if he could arrange it, of course the answer is no problem! Adriana was our guide for Pompeii and she was great! She was so knowledgeable! I would highly recommend Italy driver to anyone, you will not be disappointed!!! Everything was perfect!!! With this being the 2nd time with Umberto, you can’t go wrong. He is so responsive and he has the best TEAM if he is already booked for the day. His English is perfect as he lived in New York for a period of time. Bottom line, don’t hesitate to entrust Umberto and his team for a great day! It is like visiting an old friend who has moved away and he is showing you his home town.
On 21 April 2019 i went on a tour organised through others visiting off a cruise ship. Our driver was Sergio and i have to say having him made our day. He was absolutely wonderful, full of knowledge, so friendly and thoughtful. He knew exactly how to organise the time schedule so we fitted so much into our day. The restaurant where he took us for lunch was wonderful, the food delicious and the most amazing views. I highly recommend this company, i cannot fault them in any way. If all the drivers are like Sergio wow what a company. A must do while in this area, so much to see but this company sure knows how to plan the day to fit in as much as possible. I said i wanted to try Limoncello he even made time to take us to the factory. Sergio was brilliant, just loved him.
This is the third time we have turned to the Izzo family for our tours between Naples and the coast. Umberto and his sons Manuel and Antonio always exceptional. Impeccable, punctual, helpful, courteous, funny... and so on and so forth! A real guarantee. Beloved and family
Manuel byl skvělý řidič a průvodce! Byl velice spolehlivý a zábavný. Během jízdy nám ukázal krásná zákoutí a doporučil místní speciality. Pokud se někdy vrátíme, určitě využijeme služeb znova. Děkujeme za vše, holky z Prahy! 🇨🇿
