The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. He had to translate in 2 languages so it slowed things down and didn't leave as much time for explanations and for questions. Would have liked a tour just in english.
Unbelievable place. Stunning views from the top. Wonderful history inside. It's a must if going to Ischia. There is a beautiful cafe inside also. Extremely interesting. Lots of steps but so worth it
Excellent tour guide (Antonio). Fascinating place. Wonderful cafe at top. All well worth the visit. Would recommend making time in the tour to visit shop at top - lovely jewellery and other things. Transfer to meeting point good. We had to wait a bit for late clients, but not sure much can be done about that.
This is not a private or small group tour. Excursion is a dual language tour, which doubled the amount of time needed for the tour. The guide would speak in Italian for one group, then say the same long thing in English. Would have preferred self-guided tour or paid more for private tour that took less time.
Organization, kindness is no less professionalism, Recommendation to do the excursions with the Guide you spend a little money but they explain the story in detail. They organized excursions to the other islands, great experience thanks
My partner and I booked the Ischia&Costeria Amalfitana mini-tour with the Tour Operator Nitrodi Viaggi. They were 5 magnificent days and we would like to thank Nitrodi Viaggi for their excellent hospitality and organisation. We had a wonderful time at the Hotel Bellevue that was assigned to us, a very clean and well-kept facility, extremely courteous staff and excellent food. The shuttle service available to reach the town is very convenient. The excursions they offered us were all of great quality. Among other things, we really appreciated the change of excursion from Amalfi/Positano to Capri. It must be specified that we were unable to go to the Amalfi Coast due to adverse sea conditions. The Tour Operator was very efficient both in finding the alternative quality solution and in arranging the tour in the best possible way considering that the change occurred at the last moment on the day the excursion was scheduled. We also went around the island by boat and had a great time on board. One day we had the guided tour of the Aragonese castle and it was very interesting and pleasant. And one day we were able to go to the Poseidon Thermal Park, a true excellence. We would like to underline that the transfer drivers are also very precise, punctual and welcoming. Were we to return to Ischia, we would certainly contact you again. And we will suggest your Tour Operator to others too.
Grazie Sig.ra Sara e alla prossima con Nitrodi Viaggi!
Me and my mum found this tour incredibly accommodating (this guy repeated the same information 3 times in 3 languages, happily) with more knowledge we would have never gained about the island and let alone the castle. But, mainly the tour and the guide to as organised, accommodating and welcoming. Highly recommend for any Ischia newbies.
