We had a great driver Alfonso from Mondo Guide who picked us from the cruise port and dropped us back in a timely manner. He was knowledgeable, professional and funny too. The tour guide at Pompeii is Manuela and she is knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend this trip if you are visiting Salerno.
We did a custom tour with a pickups from Rome airport - stopped in Herculaneum, pizza lunch , then Pompeii. Our driver then took us to our hotel in Sorrento - it was such a great trip ! Alberto picked us up, Floriana was our guide in Herculaneum and Tiziana in Pompeii - both lovely. Alberto suggested an awesome pizza spot in between the two cities and it was delightful ! Thanks to Mondo guide with sharedtrips.com
