We had the most beautiful day in Ischia with Carla! - We had the most beautiful day in Ischia with Carla! She was amazing—as a local, she showed us hidden, non-touristy spots and even helped us find some long-lost relatives on the island. What an incredible experience! Having a driver at our disposal really maximized our time on this beautiful island. You might not know, but Ischia is one of the largest islands in Italy, so if you only have one day to visit, having a driver or at least a car is essential.

The experience was unforgettable! - What an amazing tour in a paradisiacal place! While in Sorrento, we wanted to escape the July crowds on the coast, and Ischia was the perfect getaway. Carla, our guide, met us at the port in Ischia and took us on a wonderful journey through this island paradise. In the afternoon, we even had time to relax at the thermal baths, which we highly recommend. The experience was unforgettable!

Ischia, what a beautiful island to discover! - Ischia, what a beautiful island to discover! It's still a hidden gem, not yet overrun by tourists, but they will surely discover it soon. Our guide was a local, which made our experience more personal and allowed us to feel a real connection with the island. Having a personal driver was a huge advantage, as it enabled us to explore every part of the island in one day without rushing. This experience was both relaxed and thorough, and we left with a deep appreciation for Ischia's charm and beauty. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to discover an unspoiled paradise.

We hope to return for a full vacation soon. - What a magical place! We wanted to explore some hidden paths in the area, and luckily, we chose Ischia. After a ferry ride from Sorrento, our wonderful guide Marianna met us at the port in Ischia. We had an amazing day together discovering her island. If you find yourself in this region, don't miss Ischia. We hope to return for a full vacation soon.

Must see island when in Amalfi- don’t miss it! - This was definitely a highlight of our trip to Amalfi. We took the ferry from Sorrento to Ischia to be greeted upon arrival by Marianna. She showed us her beautiful island and spoke about the history and culture with such pride and enthusiasm. The pace was perfect as I was with my Godmother who has a bit of trouble walking. We stopped for a gelato (baba and fig and walnut were great recommendations for flavors to try). We had an incredible lunch overlooking the sea with our guide and got to know her a bit more personally which was so nice. If you are going to Amalfi, do not miss this amazing island. It is so worth the visit and there is no better ambassador than Marianna. If you can spend more than one day, book an overnight at Mezzatorre Hotel and Thermal Spa! Bellisimo!

Wonderful! - This tour was wonderful! Our tour guide, Carolina, was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. She went out of her way to ensure we had a unique and most fulfilling experience. We got to see the entire island and learn the history and culture of the area while also incorporating specific things we wanted to do/see.

Beautiful Island - Marianna was waiting for us at the dock and was very informative. This would be a great tour on your first day so that you could see the entire island and be able to create a plan for the week. The only disappointment was that we did not have the ability to personalize the tour.

Luck of the draw, poor guide and driver. - I am leaving this review only because I expected a great deal more from a private tour that cost over $1300.00 including the ferry and no food or drink for 2 people. Our guide Paolo spoke poor English, was not engaged and provided minimal information. We did not actually see anything other than drive by like a hop on hop off tour. The entire guided tour lasted from 10:45 to 1:15. He dropped us for lunch at 1:15 we finished eating at 2:00 and we were returned to the port area to wonder on our own until 5:25. Complete waste of money. Maybe another guide and driver would make it wonderful. Luck of the draw.
