This was an amazing day....

This was an amazing day. We got to travel in luxury to three amazing sites. Our driver, Paolo, could not have been more courteous. He took care of our every need. They also helped to arrange a guide for us at Herculaneum and Pompei which was a great add on. Our guide, Umberto, was top notch. Truly an unforgettable experience!

It was a wonderful day...

It was a wonderful day getting to see Vesuvius, Herculeum and Pompeii. A private transfer was great for us since we are older and could adjust the schedule to accommodate our needs. Strongly recommend hiring a private guide through Pompeii (not included in the price), there is so much there to see and learn! Thanks

A very comfortable sightseeing tour!

We had a wonderful tour with Roberto! He was very professional and pleasant and he took very good care of us. Since we skipped the tour to Herculaneum, he booked lunsj for us at a very nice pizza restaurant on the way to Vesuvius. Roberto was always quick to respond from when I contacted him the first time and until he picked us up at the cruise port of Napoli. I strongly recommend to book Sorrento Cartours the next time you are in Napoli. Grazie mille, Roberto!

Just Spectacular

Wow o how do I start this review. First our driver Allitlio was fantastic. He messaged us the weeks before to make sure we were setup for the pickup. He messaged us before the day of pickup. He was waiting for us outside and was responsive for everything we asked for. He has all of our answers for the questions we asked him. The car was clean and comfortable. The drive was safe and everything we needed was at our fingertips. I would recommend this trip to anyone and the scenery was spectacular and the tours were even better. Don’t hesitate to book this tour and you will not be disappointed at all. 6 stars of o could select that option. N

Exactly the tour we wanted!

Our driver Maria was great - helped us decide best itinerary for the day according to the circumstances (always subject to change due to traffic, etc). She was flexible with our time requests at each location and was very responsive to our needs. We didn’t want to spend too much time at each location, so we were able to get a good view of each within the time allotted.
