⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Our private day trip from Sorrento to Positano and Ravello with Eugene was nothing short of magical! From the moment we met him, he made the entire day unforgettable. Eugene’s depth of knowledge about the history, culture, and even the language brought each stop to life in such a fun and engaging way. He took us to the most breathtaking views, captured amazing photos for us, and thought of every little detail.
He arranged a private lunch overlooking Ravello that felt like something out of a dream, surprised us with a stop for the most refreshing lemon sorbet, and even took us to the sweetest little countryside farm stand. Every moment felt thoughtfully planned yet effortless, and he exceeded our expectations in every way.
If you’re looking for the BEST guide on the Amalfi Coast, Eugene is it—he turned our trip into a truly once-in-a-lifetime memory. Highly, highly recommend!

Perfect day - We had a wonderful day with our driver Eugene. He was like a professional guide as we learnt a lot. Pompei visit was excellent as well with our tour guide Gioanna (hope the name is written correctly). I highly recommend this tour.

The best!!!! - My parents, my almost 10 year old niece and I used this company for a private tour from Naples to Positano, Sorrento, and Pompeii. Our day was absolutely exceptional with both our driver, Diego, and our Pompeii guide, Marcello, who the company set us up with! They were both awesome! They both really exceeded my expectations! All of us said how wonderful they were! Diego, our driver, was so friendly, funny, and accommodating, and really ensured we had the best day! He even went out and got us schviadel while we were in our Pompeii tour. Marcello, our Pompeii guide, did a phenomenal job showing us around Pompeii, and accommodated my mom who doesn’t get around as fast as the rest of us. He was definitely an expert in archeology and very passionate about his work. We really had an all around exceptional experience, from the owner, Mario, who checked in after our tour, to both Diego and Marcello. Do not hesitate to book this company and ask for Diego and Marcello!

A Day to Remeber - Review of Amalfi Coast Tour with Mario Frenna @privatedrivernaples
We were privileged to be guided on our sightseeing tour of the Amalfi Coast by Mario and Diego. They are co-owners of their small but superb business, and Mario’s mentor, Marcello, our guide for Pompei, is one of the finest archaeological guides in all of Italy. As a team, they are the best of the best.
Diego was our attentive and skilled host for the day and had timed our itinerary to start as early as possible, beating the tourist traffic and maximizing the time available. Our party of four drove in the comfort of an air-conditioned and roomy Mercedes-Benz minivan, and Diego answered questions with a fount of interesting knowledge throughout the day.
On the way to our first destination, we stopped briefly to take photographs of Sorrento and Positano in the early morning light from a distance.
We arrived in Positano early in the morning, just as the shopkeepers, artists, and artisans were setting up for the day, and the mist over this magical place was beginning to clear.
As we slowly descended the cobbled pathway to the beach, lined with buildings and walls, we gazed in admiration at the combinations of intense colours on every hand. Stunning architecture, art displays, and sculptures vied for our attention, alongside unique boutiques and tourist shops. Our hour there was just enough to make it to the beach for a few moments and get back to the top of the street with time for a bowl of delicious gelato.
Next, we headed to Sorrento, where we arrived at 11:00, with another hour for wandering the streets and doing some shopping, before our reservations at 12:00 noon at a top Italian restaurant for lunch. There we selected our meals from a menu that included several fish dishes with fish and lobster caught that morning. The meal was a sensation of flavourful cuisine, prepared by skilled chefs, and finished off with small glasses of limoncello, an Italian liqueur, and a bowl of tiny cookies. We feasted like royalty!
Our long-awaited visit to the city of Pompei was next, where we had reserved tickets with Marcello, our guide, and so much more. He shared with us secrets and stories about the ancient city, from the precise moment of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in the early morning hours of October 24, 79 A.D. Under his skilled guidance, Marcello gave us a Masterclass on the life and times of the doomed citizens of Pompei and the Roman government they lived under.
As though excavating the site, moment by moment, Marcello revealed more and more of the wonder of the ancient world and the place we saw frozen in time. We were privileged to learn from this maestro.
At the end of the day, Diego deposited us back where we had started nine hours before. Without exception, we felt we had experienced a day to remember—not only the sights we had seen, but the team that had guided us will remain a special memory.
We highly recommend Mario and Diego as a five-star tour team in every respect.

Private driver, tour of Amalfi Coast (stops in Positano and Sorento and 2 hour guided tour of Pompeii - Diego was amazing. So knowledgeable, communicated well, polite, courteous, funny, personable (and most importantly, a very good driver with super clean vehicle). Pompeii tour guide Giovanna “Jo” was stellar! Exceeded our expectations in every way.

Best small group tour ever! - We had a blast with our tour guide and helped feed our hungry kids and took us to an amazing restaurant near Pompeii. We enjoyed all the stops. Our driver also helped us and arranged and guide for us in Rome who was also amazing. Picked us up and dropped us off on time!

Yes, yes, yes!! Book this experience!! You won’t regret it!! - We booked this tour as part of our vacation. This is our second time visiting. I had A LOT of reservations going back. We had an okay time the first time we went. Our biggest mistake was not choosing this experience our first time around. I cannot describe how incredible this was! Our driver, Maria, absolutely love her! If you can request Maria, definitely do it!! She made sure we had everything. She rearranged plans on the spot for us to make sure we did everything we wanted to and treated us like family. She’s amazing. We added on a private tour of Pompeii. Giovanna was our guide for Pompeii. She kept it interesting, asked us what was important to our family, and made sure we not only got to see it, but explained everything about it. Emanuele is the owner of the tour. He spent hours with me back and forth making sure we had all the information from pictures of exactly where we would get picked up to answering my hundreds of questions. If you’re going to choose a tour experience, choose this one!! We’ll be back and we’ll do this again!!

Family life and history - Incredible opportunity to get to know through the magnificent Vincenzo, the history and the most recent discoveries of the established culture in Pompeii and Ercolano and the best was the comfortable and pleasant transportation of Diego. Highly recommended.
