Things to do in Amalfi, Campania: The Best Cultural Tours

January 14, 2022 Alida England

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.

Gerry was extremely helpful. I needed a custom made tour and he was more than happy to comply. I booked this tour way ahead of time but it didn't seem to be a problem. My group consisted of 20 people.

What an amazing experience we had on our trip to Sorrento. The food tour was a fantastic experience- seeing how mozzarella is made, visiting the farm and also the olive groves. Eating authentic pizzas washed down with amazing wines. We did many other tours with this company - Capri, Amalfi, Pompei and an unforgettable lunch and wine tasting on Vesuvius. Truly remarkable and we would totally recommend this company for the reliability, information and ideas which made our holiday one to remember

Explore the charming streets of Amalfi, where the marvelous 9th century cathedral dominates the main square and the bustling harbor is full of life. Also visit the hill town of Ravello, where Wagner was inspired for the composition of one of his works and the picturesque 11th century cathedral oversees the pedestrian square, while alleys and streets lead in every direction.

Well, i dont think that words can describe this experience. We rented a private car with driver for driving us from sorrento to prositano and continue to Amalfi-coast and back to sorrento. We had Alfredo as a driver. He was dressed very formal and very friendly. He opened and closed the door and was always available for us. He also brought us to some very nice places on the way. I would HIGHLY recommend this affordable, very professional and reliable transport service.

We contacted Rainbow Limos for hour mini moon break as we landed at Napoli airport and was staying in Positano. Ivana kindly provided a quotation with a good response time, I provided all the flights details etc and was informed Alberico would be waiting for us as we exited the airport. Alberico provided a very professional service throughout both journeys as we discussed the different surrounding areas of Naples with some suggestions of restaurants. Really good personal service which I will 110% recommend to my family and friends!

Excellent trip. Taken during Covid measures and we felt safe. Well organised. Tour guide was knowledgeable and had time and clear explanations for all guests. Bit of a trek to top of vesuvius but well worth taking ones time. Felt value for money.

AMAZING!! Our tour through Capri and the different grottos was amazing! We were first picked up close to our AirBnB and taken to the port where we would board the boat. The You Know crew was very kind and friendly. We boarded the boat and took off to Capri with drinks. Along the way, our guide provided information, stories, background facts about Sorrento and Capri. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, the captain was also very friendly. They took us to different grottos, including the blue grotto. We were not able to go in because the tide was high. But visiting other grottos we were able to swim (the water was cold so only I swam). One amazing experience was swimming inside some of the grottos and being able to see the clear water and sea animals. We were dropped in Capri to explore at our leisure. They provided food and drinks throughout the trip. We then visited the iconic cathedral shape rock of Capri taking pictures and video. The crew made it very memorable and fun. We had a 11 month old baby with us and we felt very safe. Their COVID protocols also made us feel very safe and secure. We recommend this tour 100000%!

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!
