Getting to know a different way of life. We were unable to enjoy the coastal sailing due to bad weather. The group coordinator did a wonderful job. Together with the bus driver, they took us around the coast by bus. The traffic was a bit complicated because of the small streets. Many of the locals were very bad tempered, it seemed that tourists bothered them. Others were very cordial.

Our guide, Sammie, was excellent. We had plenty of time to enjoy Positano, which was great. However, the overall bus and boat trip felt quite long.
    • Round-trip AC bus transfers from Rome, a calming coastal cruise from the Port of Salerno, and a splash of limoncello. Enough said?

    • Wander along Positano's shops, beaches, and roads with an expert guide, and soak up its incredible seaside scenery.

    • Experience Amalfi's stunning views and enjoy a limoncello tasting. Admire the outside of the charming Amalfi Cathedral.

    • Fun fact: Legend says that Positano was painted in muted colors until local fishermen returned from North Africa with brightly colored pigments to repaint it.

    • Full-day trip around Amalfi and Positano

    • Expert local guide in English

    • Pick-up from Rome

    Great views, the food at LE TRE SORELLE was amazing. HOWEVER, the trip is at high risk for failure due to tight timelines, distance/traffic weather on open roof boats, boat timelines, and overcrowding. Bus drivers are on a strict timeline required by law and this trip pushes those boundaries. Bathroom opportunities are very limited (none on the bus), that coupled with the tight timeline led to a point that the guide was rude to other passengers due to them not getting an opportunity to use the restroom before boarding the bus for the return trip. Overcrowding at the venues shortened our time in the locations, forcing us to get in the boat lines 30-45 mins early in order to met the next time hack. Overall felt very rushed.

    The trip was a diaster. Because of an accident we dus not make it to the ferry. We booked this trip because we wanted to go to the Amalfi coast. We did not reach there. I have payed € 750 for a trip that was not the trip we expected. If I knew this before I would have never spend so much money. It's a great loss for me and my family.

    If your your guide is a Turkish person named Semih Topaloglu, please don't go in the tour. He will pretend to be really nice but in real is extremely rude and unpleasant. At the end of the tour, I asked him if I can use the toilet for just 2 mins. he got really upset and said he will not wait and will leave with the group. I asked him this when I saw the toilet right in front of me. I reached the bus before the rest of the group. There was no point in shouting at the top of his voice and saying so rudely in front of the entire group. Also, he is not safe with women as I saw him constantly trying to be with only one single girl trying to woo her and get to somewhere we all know about.
