“We were total of six persons on a small cozy boat. We thought it was perfect for our tour. The guide was an older man who was very kind and funny, he’s English was so so but we kind of understood him. Luckily there was an Italian guy among us who helped with the translation. All in the group decided to skip the blue grotto because the wait time was over 1 hour and I’m glad we skipped it because we could then swim more in the beautiful sea.”
Half-day tour from Sorrento to Herculaneum’s preserved Roman streets, baths, and Villa of the Papyri, with an English guide and headsets.
“Avoiding the notorious railway system was important as well as having it all laid out for you. The price was good. Transportation was slow mainly due to the traffic in the area and so we were delayed. The site is manageable. Headsets ok. Guide was good she kept up the pace. It was very hot though. Glad we did it. Could go back next time with an archaeologist.”

A 4-hour guided walk through Herculaneum’s remarkably preserved Roman villas and frescoes, with A/C bus comfort from Sorrento.
“Guide, Tony, was very pleasant and informative and looked after us well. At the park we met another guide and were split into two small groups of 10 so it was easy to get into the villas and other attractions and he avoided the crowds. It was very hot and whenever possible he sought out shade when talking to us. The tour was the perfect length given the heat and we enjoyed it. The coach was clean and air conditioned with a pleasant driver. A good experience, recommended.”
A half-day Amalfi Coast tour from Sorrento with Positano and Amalfi highlights, air-conditioned private transport, and English support.
“Tommaso was wonderful. Six longtime friends took the half-day coast tour from our cruise port of Sorrento in Tommaso’s roomy Mercedes SUV. He was very communicative with messages ahead of our visit, such that we had no issues making connection on the pier the morning of our tour. Amalfi & Positano were very crowded with tourists the weekend we ended up being there, so having Tommaso there to get us through all of that was a godsend. Then at the end of the half-day, he was able to get us lunch reservations at a great local place in the heart of Sorrento - pizza with wonderful homemade limoncello!”
