Vietri sul Mare ceramics walk with Alessia. See the Duomo, ceramic alleys, and enjoy a local tasting on the Amalfi Coast.
“Alessia is by far the best tour guide we have ever had! She was very knowledgeable of Vietri sul Mare and it was really great to do when we first arrived so we knew where all the best places were in town. We also booked a separate tour in Salerno and was equally an amazing experience. I would definitely recommend any tour she is doing!”
Walk Minori to Maiori on the Sentiero dei Limoni, with church stops and coastal views. Private, English, 2 hours, $62.
“I was fortunate to have the tour all to myself. I felt i had my own personal guide. Filomena was very knowledgeable about her tour. She made the walk interesting which made the 400 stair steps going up and then going down easy. She also seemed to know when i needed a break which was very considerate of her. I would definitely recommend this tour. Thank you Filomena I had a great time.”
A private 4-hour walk through Amalfi’s Valle delle Ferriere, mixing waterfalls, lemon groves, and old paper mills with a licensed guide.
“Heel erg mooie, maar lastige trip, die leidt naar een echt hoogtepunt met een goede gids (Vincenzo)!”
Positano to Capri by shared boat for grotto stops, free bar and brunch, and about 4 hours on the island for shopping and sights.
“We were really looking forward to this boat tour, but unfortunately, the experience fell short of expectations. Our swimming and relaxation time, one of the main reasons we booked was cut in half because other guests were over 30 minutes late. Instead of adhering to the schedule, the skippers decided to wait and accommodate them, which ultimately penalized those of us who were on time. This decision set a frustrating tone for the trip and significantly affected the value of the experience. To make matters worse, the food provided later was minimal, stale, and frankly unappetizing. Definitely not in line with what was promised or paid for. Overall, the experience…”
