Absolutely amazing, we had so much fun Can’t wait to go back and spend more time, our guide was amazing and very knowledgeable of the area
This is a great way to get a flavour of the towns that make up the Amalfi coast. We enjoyed both the guided parts of the tour where Dani really looked after us, and the time on our own to explore. Don’t miss out on the boat trip as this is the best way to see the beauty of this wonderful area.
Amalfi coast is a pretty place to visit, although there were many tourists there which make it quite busy. We took an additional boat ride along the coast which made this experience more memorable. Our guide Roberta is great and attentive too.
Daniella was amazing, very engaging and enthusiastic about sharing the beautiful scenery and history of the region.
Daniella was a great guide and we had the best day with her. Thank you so much for a memorable experience!
Beautiful trip,Breathtaking views.Daniella w as the best!
The tour was really wonderful, well organised and Daniela was a fabulous tour guide, was a really great day.
We had a great time in the tour and well explained and was well coordinated. Isabella was a great guide and explained well the significance of all the places patiently. Daniel really drove the vehicle very well so that we didn’t feel any motion sickness during the entire trip.
We had a great guide Max on our trip to Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. Despite the fact that it was hot and busy we had a lovely time. The tour wax very well organised and Max gave us clear instructions about timings etc. We added another boat trip from Amalfi which helped on such a hot day. We managed to fit in a swim at Positano and a much needed gelato in Ravello.
Dear Traveler, Thank you for this fantastic feedback! We are so glad that Max kept everything perfectly organized with clear instructions, allowing you to have a lovely time despite the heat and peak season crowds. Adding the boat trip is always a smart move on hot days, and we are thrilled you managed to squeeze in a swim in Positano and a gelato in Ravello! We would love to welcome you back on board for another unforgettable day along the coastline! Warm regards, IAMME IA! Gray Line
Here’s a polished version: Max was our English speaking tour guide, and he was incredibly clear, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the day. The tour was lovely, and Positano was definitely my favorite stop. I’ve always wanted to hop between the towns along the Amalfi Coast, and this tour made that possible. The only stop where you don’t get beach time is Ravello, but since it’s at the end of the day, it still feels like a nice way to finish the experience. Overall, I think it’s well worth it, especially considering that transportation from Naples to Positano is included.
Dear Traveler, Thank you for sharing this highly detailed review! Max will be incredibly happy to hear that his clarity, knowledge, and patience stood out during your journey. We are thrilled that this tour checked off your bucket list item of town-hopping along the Coast from Naples, and that Ravello provided the perfect, peaceful conclusion to your day. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we warmly invite you to join us for another adventure in the future! Warm regards, IAMME IA! Gray Line
