What people love about Private Tours in Italy
- Highlights of Sorrento,Capri and Amalfi Coast Private Tour
We had a wonderful time in Italy!!!! Omar was so very helpful in planning our trip of a lifetime. Our private tour guide was Gabriella. She was very knowledgeable about Naples, Sorrento, Capri, and all about the Amalfi Coast. While in Naples she knew where to get the wallet pizza, espressos, pastries, etc. We saw Cathedrals, Roman roads, gorgeous buildings, etc. Next we went to Pompeii which was incredible. It's amazing that the ruins have lasted this long. We also went to a wine tasting at a winery, "Tears of Christ" at the foot of Mount Vesuvius. We had a five course lunch with five different wines, and the setting was beautiful. We had multiple private drivers. Marco was with us a couple of days. Gabriella, Marco, David and I had a fun time touring Italy and they were both extremely knowledgeable on the coast and the sites. We had two lemoncello tastings, one in Sorrento and one in Scala. We actually saw where they make the lemoncello and how the process is done, which you can do it home. I am sure it won't be the same! We went to Capri on a slightly dreary day. But it was beautiful. We took a boat ride around the coast and the scenery left you speechless. We did some shopping....saw where the perfumes were made and of course purchased a couple of bottles. We stayed in three hotels....Naples, Sorrento, Ravello. All were beautiful! We love the scenery of the country, the food, and the history. It is amazing how the homes, hotels and businesses are literally built on the rock on a high cliff, and the lemon grove terraces on the steep mountains were so lush. Gabriella told us history about the roads and the rock walls, we passed the oldest hotel in the area...lots of little things. She and the drivers knew where to stop and take the most breathtaking pictures for our memories. We would highly recommend this tour!
- Luxury Private Tour of Sicily: Highlights
Great service all round, from the back office to the tour guides, to the recommended hotels booked and restaurants. The company really took the pressure off me organising the hotel, tours, airport transfers and restaurants. Great taste in everything provided and the customer service was fantastic. Every time I had something to discuss, we did it via what’s app which was so much easier and I got directions etc sent to me with minutes of local places to visit and eat. Sicily was an amazing place and I went with my wife who was 7 months pregnant at the time. Everyone was so thoughtful, considerate and caring, it made our trip so much more enjoyable.
- Private Tour of Sicily from Palermo to Palermo
The tour that was planned for us included the opportunity to see every to site in Sicily. The accommodations and the drivers were great. Alessandro drove us the first day and took us to several sites that we would not have seen without his knowledge of the city of Palermo. Emmanuela drove us the other 5 days of the tour and she is just an outstanding driver and guide. Although she is not a formally trained guide, her knowledge of the history and ecology of Sicily was such a great addition. And, she is a gracious and charming companion for any travelers. We were so lucky to have her as our driver and accompaniment. This tour made a new and different part of Italy easy to enjoy with great access to everything that must be seen in Sicily. We would recommend this tour to anyone!! Thanks for this great experience.
