10 Archaeology Tours in Amalfi That You Shouldn't Miss

June 19, 2021 Tambra Mccollister

If it's your first time visiting the Amalfi Coast, chances are you'll do a double-take the first time you see a roadside lemon stand. Yes, those are lemons, and yes, they are the size of your head. But despite their freakish appearance, you will grow to love these lemons because the locals use them to produce limoncello. And take it from us, there's nothing like a glass of limoncello as you gaze out at the sea from the balcony of your hotel in Amalfi. It's pretty much perfection.

As a tour operator specialising in Italy myself, I will say that Fabrizio is one of the best guides I work with. Beyond knowing his material well, Fabrizio is very engaging and shows great skill in communication and presentation. He is definitely my first choice for guiding within the Campania region.

He was understanding of our needs and went above and beyond to make it a holiday to remember, even offering to take photos and suggest restaurants. Thank you Massimo and Cindy! From Max and Sophie

Starting from the end of the XVIII century, the remains of the ancient Roman city were brought to light: the archaeological investigations have not only revealed paintings, mosaics, furnishings and buildings, but have allowed us to reconstruct the lifestyle in Roman times. The Pompeian archaeological site, together with that of Ercolano and Oplonti, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. Visit the archaeological park of Pompeii with an authorized guide to make your experience unique and to fully understand the millennial history of one of the world's unique heritage sites.

Over several days in May, Andrea Rispoli, Amalfi Tour Leader, drove us around the Amalfi Coast, as well as from Amalfi back to Rome. His vehicle was clean and comfortable, he was extremely knowledgeable, a very careful driver, and most enjoyable to be with. Being driven on the Amalfi Coast is the best possible option, and being driven by Andrea is even better. Great guy.

Picked up on time from our hotel. The boat was nice and not too many people on it. Drinks provided throughout the trip and a sandwich, although we chose to eat in Amalfi. The tour assistant was friendly and spoke perfect English. Great way to see the different parts of the Sorrento/Amalfi coast in one day. Good amount of time spent in each location too!
