Peter was an excellent guide. He looked after everyone and gave us the best history lesson I’ve ever had. Very interesting and enjoyable. For me I would have preferred half an hour more in Pompeii rather than the longer time in Positano but that’s just personal choice. An excellent day.

Worth every penny! I only had two days in Italy, and this was an excellent way to visit some of the finest locations and views. It would have taken multiple trips to see everything this tour visits.

We had an amazing time. Our guide Barbara was great fun and full of knowledge about Pompeii and Positano.

It was a long day! But Barbara has showed courtesy all the time. Such a great personality!

Everything was good but in Amalfi it started raining!
