The perfect Pompeii and Positano Experience - Our drivers, Andre & Francesca were excellent. They knew where to stop for views and photos. Had great contact with our guide at Pompeii (she even brought us directly back to them). Gave us a great restaurant in Positano and made reservations for us. The car was comfortable and clean. They were always checking to see if we needed to make a pit stop. We made and excellent choice and would highly recomend them.

Fantastic day out taking in Pompeii and Positano - We had a fantastic day with Andrea. It was so convenient being picked up from our hotel (Andrea was even early). He stopped after about an hour so we could get some breakfast and a coffee. Once at Pompeii he took us exactly where we needed to go, and made sure our tour guide knew to bring us back to him at the end. He also found bathrooms we could use and we weren't charged as he knew the people. I was really thirsty after the tour and wanted to grab a fresh orange juice, he knew exactly where to go and the orange juice was fantastic. Pompeii was pretty crowded as we happened to be there on a day it was open free to the public, but because we were pretty early we avoided most of the crowds - very busy on our way out though.
Then he took us on our lunch trip to Positano. The traffic wasn't all that great but not much to be done. We stopped for a photo opportunity at one point along the way. We were glad Andrea was driving as the turns were tight with lots of pedestrians everywhere. He said it was nothing compared to summer crowds! We found a nice place to eat along the beach (Andrea leaves you to do this whilst he waits nearby to where the car is parked). Positano was beautiful, highly recommended.
The traffic coming back to Rome was pretty heavy, probably took over 2.5 hours. As a result our tour ran over time but Andrea gave us plenty of warning about this. We had a stop on the way home for bathroom and drinks/snacks if we needed. He was chatty and easy to get along with, my husband had great fun talking to him in the front seat.
Even got hugs at the end which I thought was lovely. Thanks for looking after us Andrea!

Excellent experience - Andrea was wonderful, accommodating, kind and knowledgeable. It was a lot of driving for him and his assistant, Francesca but they never complained. We had a short time to see so many things and we are so happy we took this tour. We also had a wonderful tour guide for Pompei who was great with our kids and very knowledgeable.
Andrea also recommended a wonderful restaurant for lunch which we all enjoyed. We would highly recommend this tour. We never felt rushed, it was a great day.

Grazie Mille Andrea! - We initially had a standard group tour booked but decided that we wanted a bit more flexibility so decided to book a private tour with Andrea and are we ever glad we did!
Andrea was waiting for us in our hotel lobby when we came down and directed us into his car, which was clean, comfortable and air conditioned. He pointed out different sites of Rome as we made our way to Pompeii as well as sites along the way.
When we reached Pompeii, Andrea arranged with the guide who’s group we’d be joining to contact him after the tour ended, and the guide handed us off to Andrea at the end of the tour, which was in and of itself, incredible!
Afterwards, he drove us down to Positano for lunch; along the way we made some quick photo stops to enjoy the views of the Bay of Naples, Sorrento and Positano.
Positano itself was absolutely beautiful and the restaurant Andrea suggested couldn’t have been better!
It was a long day, there’s no getting around that, but because it was a private tour that provided flexibility and we were fortunate enough to have Andrea as our guide, the day was among the best we had in Italy!
Grazie Mille Andrea!

Stunning and relaxed tour of Pompeii and Positano - Absolutely fantastic experience with fantastic guides / drivers: very flexible, largely self-paced tours with stunning road-trip scenery and perfect amounts of time to explore Pompeii and Positano. Thanks for making our trip so easy and memorable. We also appreciated the ability to nap on the way back.

Amazing trip to pompeii and Positano - Pompeii was an amazing trip. The driver Anrea the driver was amazing and very helpful. After Pompeii Anrea took us to Positano and dropped us off at his friend's restaurant right on the beach. Positano was a beautiful fishing village and the views from the cliffs were breathtaking.

Excellent tour with Anrea - We had a wonderful tour with our very attentive guide Andrea! He was prompt, made sure we felt comfortable, answered all our questions, and ensured we had a relaxing and enjoyable tour! He made sure the guide in Pompeii looked over us during the tour and assisted us in finding a delicious spot for lunch in Positano! He went above and beyond and I would highly recommend a tour with him!
