Amalfi coast Drive (Positano Photo Stop) - Sorrento and Pompeii

Your private driver will greet you at your Hotel / accommodation (or Naples train station), after a brief presentation you will be accompanied to the luxurious vehicle where our staff will offer you every comfort you need. After that they will give you important information about the tour and the places that you are going to visit. Finally, let's get started your dream Private Tour !

Your driver will take you on a coastal drive to the famous Amalfi Coast. He will stop few times along the way to take fantastic panoramic photos of you with the famous Sorrento, Gulf of Napoli and Amalfi Coast scenary in the background. During the tour,  some cultural and gastronomic general information about the area will be provided along the way (inside the vehicle) by your private driver. Then, you will find yourselves driving to Positano for an incredible Photo Stop at the ‘Madonnina’ for the best view of Positano from the top. See the houses clung to the mountainside like white sugar lumps coated in brightly coloured bougainvillea tumbling down to a small, beach and warm blue Mediterranean sea. 

After Positano photo stop, we will then drive to Sorrento. Arrived in the city of Sorrento, the private driver will leave you in the historical square called Piazza Tasso for your free time but first of all he will show you the fastest way to go to inner part of the city where you can visit the old churches, museums, the beautiful buildings and the landscapes. You can visit the factories of famous Limoncello; an alcoholic drink made by lemons, sugar and water, a typical Italian product.

At this point it’s time for a nice lunch, trust our staff and you will enjoy a incredible meal made by local ingredients, such as seafood and handmade fresh pasta. Alternatively you can have a pizza or a panino, something quicker but equally delicious. Stopping for lunch will be according to your needs and your time.

On the way to Pompeii, we will drive by Mt. Vesuvius, the volcano responsible for one of the most famous historical events in Italy. The old city of Pompeii is located at the base of the Vesuvius and was flourish during the Period of the Roman Empire. After the eruptions of the Volcano in 79 B.C the city has been destroyed and covered by ashes and lapillus. The Archeological dig started in 1748 and in three centuries only 3/5 part of the city has been discovered. Now the city has been declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO and 3.750.000 tourists each year come to visit it.

Before leaving your private driver please agree upon the time to leave. Then the driver will recommend a suitable time to get back to your Hotel / accommodation (or Naples train station) after this lovely day!

from Golden, CO

We had such a wonderful day yesterday with Attilio and with the incredibly knowledgeable guide to Pompeii who you arranged to tour with us. Thank you. It was a true delight. Attilio was so friendly and responsive to anything we needed and asked. He made the day exactly what we wanted it to be. Such a gift. Thank you for your wonderful work and help.

from Phoenix

Today was the most beautiful day for several reasons. First of course was the scenic views. Second was the most informative guided tour of Pompeii. We learned so much. Lena(sp?) was amazing. But truly without doubt, the reason this day will remain one of our fondest memories is our guide, Enrico. Upbeat, informative and so personable. We had an issue that Enrico took to heart and helped us resolve it. How grateful we are that he extended himself for us. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

You absolutely must book with Lovely Amalfi Coast Tours. I never leave reviews, and I’m not just saying that, however I felt compelled to share how wonderful our experience was. We had Gio as our tour guide/friend for the day. Gio felt more like a friend just hanging out and showing us some amazing parts of the coast, while giving us the historical and traditional highlights. He was so outgoing, welcoming and friendly and the spots we stopped at were amazing. He even took us to a less touristy location for lunch (I won’t ruin the surprise or post the name, so people don’t come on to it) and it was the best part of our trip!! Book with them, you will see the beauty of Amalfi from a company that appreciates “tourists” because they get to share their prideful home of the coast of Italy

from Miami

I would like to highly recommend Gio Lovely Tours as an option for those looking for a private excursion other than an excursion provided by a cruise line. If you’re with a group of 4 or 6 or even 8, a comfortable Mercedes touring van is used for these tours. I can attest that over the years, Gio has been the most reliable and friendly tour guide and is very knowledgeable about the area. My family and friends have used this company for over 10 years! The company is well aware of cruise ship departure times and assure you of a timely return to the port to board your ship. We recently spent the day again with Gio after he picked us up at the port in Naples, Italy. What an exciting day touring the Amalfi Coast with stops that we chose to make and some that he recommended for photos opportunities. He even recommends great lunch venues if you’re looking for somewhere nice to eat on the Amalfi Coast. Pricing I feel is competitive so give them a call so they can make your day the most memorable!

from Fallbrook

My friends and I had a lovely time with our driver Emy in Rome. This was truly the best way to see the city and maximize our time. Emy took us to all the places we wished to see, gave us a great lunch recommendation and took us to a hidden gem we would have never thought to go to. Emy provided wonderful insight and impeccable driving along the way. Lovely Almafi Tours is a must do.

from Brantford ontario

We highly recommend Giovanni,he is the best person,after the tour he becomes your friend,call and book your vacation with him and you never call any other!!

from Plainfield

This was hands down the best tour we have ever been on! Communication was quick and easy from the beginning. They were sure to confirm our tour and my requests. We started off getting off on the wrong train stop, as I did not realize there were 2 Naples stops! Giovanni was so kind and flexible and ended up driving further out to come pick us up! He did not have to offer that because it was totally my fault, but I am so grateful that he did! He was very kind and welcoming. The van was comfortable and roomy. Right away Gio made us feel like family. We felt as though we were actually being shown around by a close friend or family member, rather than just a tour guide. He was fun and informative. As soon as he found out my husband's name was Rocky, he played "Eye of the Tiger" and they pretty much hit it off and became BFFs! We started in Pompeii, which was amazing! I highly recommend paying for the private tour guide, otherwise you will not really know what you are looking at. There is not much signage. I felt that you need the guide to explain things so you can fully appreciate where you are and what you are seeing. Next we started towards Amalfi coast and it was breath taking at every turn. We stopped at a lemon farm for a private lunch. What an experience! All the food was so fresh and the service was top notch! We literally felt as if we were having a meal at a relatives house. Just AMAZING! We continued on and Gio dropped us off in Positano for some shopping! After that we headed back to Naples. I was so sad that it was ending. It was our first full day of vacation, and what a way to start off! This company does not give tours, they give experiences! Amazing, unforgettable experiences, with memories to last a lifetime! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this trip so special! Don't hesitate to use them...just GO!
