HEAVEN ON EARTH - THE AMALFI COAST: POSITANO/SORRENTO/POMPEII
HeThis tour is something unbelievable. Designed to offer you a general overview of the enchanting Amalfi Coast, with this tour you will have the possibility of visiting the most important excavations in the world (the ones of Pompeii), the picturesque village of Positano and doing a little bit of shopping in the charming city of Sorrento.
At 08.00 o'clock am one of our expert bilingual Driving-guides will be waiting for you at the pier as you disembark the ship holding a sign with your name on.
After the greetings the tour will start. From the port our first stop will be Pompeii and believe me you will be undoubtedly overwhelmed by its excavations. Completely covered in magma because of the eruption of the Volcano Vesuvius occurred in year 79 AD, experts started to excavate it around the end of the 18th Century and that is why the ruins are still well-preserved. You will have a 2 hour tour in there, because on average that is the time needed for a good visit.
You can choose to do it on your own with or without audio-guides always following paths suggested my the maps that you will be provided with. You can follow the 1 h and 30 minute path, the 2 hour path or others.
Or you can choose to hire a tour guide for a 2 hour guided tour of the excavations, very useful for explanations and directions. Note that Pompeii can also be seen in the afternoon before getting back to the pier for car traffic reasons.
After Pompeii we will head for the real exclusive wonderful AMALFI COAST. Through a couple of galleries we will drive towards POSITANO that like a post card, pips out from the bulging
cliffs with its multicoloured houses and charming port. We will go right on top of Positano for a wonderful lunch obviously if you agree. I tell you the lunch spot, price and food will be the highlight of the entire tour and that is thanks to our continuous research of reasonable and trustworthy places where to make you eat and have fun.
Many times after this stop people don't want to leave anymore, but it will be time for the second part of the tour. After having seeing Positano we will drive back towards Sorrento, that little wonderful town famous for the little stores and warm people.
Most of the time people choose to take pictures of Sorrento from the road flanking it (wonderful) and spending more time in Positano or vice versa. It will be then time to get back to the pier.
Tour ends at 05.00 o'clock at the port.
