Once a vital part of a mighty sea power, Positano is today a sophisticated resort on the central Amalfi Coast. Moorish-style architecture rises up steep slopes that gaze out on the Sirenuse Islands. Smart boutiques, selling fashions for visitors to display on Grand Beach, abound in the village. And it’s a great base for exploring the area—you can easily travel by boat to Capri, Ischia and the Grotta dello Smeraldo cave.

We booked the tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum and it was absolutely incredible. Lello’s knowledge of both locations was second to none and he clearly has a true passion for the topic. We had a brilliant day and would definitely book further tours with Lello.

The experience with Lovely Amalfi Tours is an absolute MUST when planning your next trip to Italy. Giovanni and his team are amazing hosts, and you feel like you are exploring Italy with your best friends by your side. They are energetic, welcoming, and accommodating to all of your travel needs. My first experience with Lovel Amalfi Tours (in the Summer of 2014) was so enjoyable that I made sure to book another tour with them when I returned to Italy in the summer of 2017. I look forward to my next adventure with the Lovely Amalfi Tours team!!

This eight/nine-hour trip begins in Sorrento and heads south for the breathtaking drive (lightly narrated by your driver-or narrated by your guide), and an hour or two in each of the three main towns - Positano, Amalfi and Ravello - before returning to Sorrento.
Inclusions: Transport by air-conditioned minivan/minibus, Driver plus a guide for groups of 9-21 people
Exclusions: Food and drinks, Hotel pickup and drop-off
My husband, teenaged daughter, and I took the shared day trip to Carpi from Sorrento. The price was very reasonable and the other passengers were extermely nice. We were pickuped in a old van with no air conditioning and windows that wouldn't roll down. We stopped to pickup others, but fortunately the drive was only a little ways until we reached the port. There was some confusion about payment but off we went. After that biref negative experience, the rest of the day was amazing. Our captain and crew were very accomodating and friendly. We felt safe on our way to Capri. We stopped to snorkel after circling the island. We had fun even though the Blue Grotto was closed due to high tide. Then we had the day to spend on Capri to explore. So much to see and do, but we had just enough time until it was time to meet back at the boat for our return trip. Definitely take this day trip to Capri!

We had a private tour as a couple. Alessandro was our amazing guide! He picked us up at the port on time and we drove straight to Rome. He was an excellent driver, showed us all of the highlights, dropped us off at various areas and picked us up on time. We then went to the Vatican where we met our guide Paulo. We had a private tour by a highly educated guide. We were able to skip the line and avoid crowds. Private Tours May cost a bit more but they are worth every cent!! Our day was amazing!

We booked a tour with Antonini to herculaneom, Pompei and Mount Vesuv and were welcomed with a big smile at the airport! Antonino is an exceptionally nice and knowlegeful person and shared interesting details of this region and the various historical sites throughout our trip. He picked us up at the airport and dropped us off at our hotel on the Amalfi coast. His driving is impeccable and we were happy to not have to drive ourselves as the roads are very small and curvy. We were so happy about our excursion with Antonino and would recommend anyone to book a tour with him any day.

Nico was out tour guide. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He was not like previous tour guides that I have had experience with in such that he did not push us towards any particular restaurant or stores. Rather, he gave us general advice and told us which places were not recommended and why. We felt that he had our best interests at heart and not looking for kickbacks like other tour guides.

This is my second review on this issue, as I've sent "Walks" another email in regards to their "refund policy".This really deserves to be in quotations, as many can attest they don't really have a "refund policy", only the faint promise of one, that will eventually end in a gift voucher. My query is will they continue to honor this voucher past the initial offer? Currently, and into the foreseeable future, the possibilities to book and travel for a vacation in Italy is questionable at best, with the ongoing COVID restrictions. Walks offered vouchers to 150% for the booked tours cost, or something to that tune. Though I'll bet my $400+ CAD tour that all the tours will have increased by at least 150% to cover costs associated with loss of business, and requisite costs for COVID related restrictions and cleaning measures, for your "safety". I'm still requesting that WALKS do the right thing and refund, in full, everyone's booked tours monies, as promised, and as per they're own refund policy...I'm not holding my breath. It will likely require a class action lawsuit against these turkeys. Of all our bookings to Italy, everyone of them EXCEPT Walks, honored and refunded all monies.
