Perfect Amalfi Day Trip - Taking this day trip was a great decision for us due to the fact that we had limited time in Italy, but really wanted to experience the Amalfi Coast. We didn’t want to spend most of the day on a bus or in a van, so the high speed train was the perfect option. There was a lot of communication from the tour company with regard to the meeting place and time which was a tremendous help and made our planning easy. A guide met us at the train station in Rome to ensure we boarded the correct train to Salerno, which took approximately 1.5 hours. When we arrived in Salerno we met our second guide, Mauro. He explained that because our train ran late (10-15 min ) we missed our scheduled ferry so would have a little less time in Positano. He also said that if we decided as a group to stay in Positano longer and less time in Amalfi, that would be fine. Mauro made sure we all got on the next ferry and I have to say, this man was hustling to make sure we were all having the best possible experience. He was fantastic. He was running all over the ferry making sure everyone in the group had seats on the top deck to have the best views and he was constantly moving around to talk to everyone and give information about what we were looking at and the history of each little town we passed. We ultimately decided to spend 45 minutes in Positano, which was fine since the town is so small and so crowded. He offered euros to people who needed to use the restroom and he tended to individuals in the group who needed a little extra care walking or finding their way. We boarded the ferry for our next stop which was Amalfi. We had 3 hours of free time to explore the town. Mauro showed us a great restaurant for lunch, he took us to a beautiful little shop for limoncello and chocolate tastings and ran all over the town finding people in the group and guiding them to different locations for shopping or the beach. My husband and I really loved visiting both Positano and Amalfi, but agreed 1 day with those crowds was enough. We took the ferry back to Salerno, Mauro escorted us back to our train and we were back in Rome in an hour and a half. It was a perfect day.

Would Work with this Tour Company again. - Although very hot and a slight train delay, the day’s schedule went smoothly. Plenty of time in the two cities. Amazing coastal views from the ferry rides. Would definitely schedule another tour with Italia Tours. Organized and a wonderful, friendly guide.

Amafi Coazt with Mauro! - Our guide, Mauro, is very attentive to all of his customers, thank you! The Amari Coast tour was so beautiful and made easy by Mauro. He’s informative and explained well to answer all our questions and curiosities. Our return high speed train to Rome was delayed almost an hour, but he stayed with us the entire time to make sure we got on the train!!! Thank you Mauro!!

Great trip - This was a great quick way to see the Amalfi coast. Mauro was an excellent guide, very helpful and friendly. The day in August was very hot and the area gets quite congested with tourists. The boats are also fairly hot and congested. But this was still a great trip and lots of great pictures and memories. 5 star for Mauro for sure, 4 star for the heat and crowds.

Rip off. This is not a tour is an occasional guide in public transportation - The description is deceiving and the price for the services offered is a rip-off. You have to meet someone at Rome train station that guide you to your train car (second class tickets if you want to know) Someone else receives you in Salerno and walks you into a ferry. The seabreeze was nice. We arrived at Positano, where the guide mentions a few places. After one hour he put us in the ferry to Amalfir. The sea breeze was nice. In Amalfir he voices a few words, takes us to a good restaurant and let us loose for three hours. No microphone, or earphones. No history no details of the places. Although carismátic Mauro failed to provide expected details about the cities. This is a very cheap operation where we the tourists are charged with high price. The provided description is a makeup erosion of the reality. Italytours should be ashamed
