About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 431haylec0 contributionsFun, informative tourGino was a great guide! He kept us laughing and provided in depth knowledge about Pompeii. Thanks for a great tour!Written October 12, 2023
- 095curlytop0 contributionsPompeii tourPompeii is best appreciated with a guide unless you are intimately familiar with its archeological finds. Ours, Geno, was quite knowledgeable. He went a little fast at times, and unfortunately our radios cut out every so often so we could not hear what he was saying 100% of the time. That’s why I deducted one star. Everything else, train, tickets, went off without a hitch.Written October 2, 2023
- AngelaG6030 contributionsPompeiI found Gino funny and informative. The tour said to meet by 9.30am but we didn't get on a train until 10.30am which was frustrating. Not Gino's fault just the trains were not running at a schedule. Lucky it was overcast it would have been pretty hard under the full sun😜 Pompei is INCREDIBLE.Written September 21, 2023
- kaycee17040 contributionsPompeii with WitThe highlight of the tour was our Guide Mario. A very knowledgeable person and explanation with wit. We met him at the station as mentioned in the tour and we were taken to Pompeii by Train. Mario's humor entertained us in the tour and his vast knowledge was apparent. Very enjoyable.Written September 10, 2023
- 235davef0 contributionsGino was greatEverything about this tour was superb especially the tour guide, Gino who was excellent. Not only did he was very informative about the features of Pompeii but he had loads of very entertaining anecdotes. The trip was very well organised with the train tickets and Pompeii tickets bought in advance which meant there was minimal delay. Would highly recommend.Written September 5, 2023
- davestephp20180 contributionsPompeii tourGino was extremely interesting & informative! He did just the right mix of sharing the rich history + sprinkled in some jokes along the way. Great with the kids in our group. Would highly recommend.Written September 1, 2023
- JC P0 contributionsGreat tour guideReally good tour that begun at the train station (easily located). Guide was very knowledgeable & funny. He shared interesting stories & information. Lots of extra time to look around Pompeii afterwards if you like. Worth while having a guide when attending though.Written August 15, 2023
- Culture477929725940 contributionsPompeii guided tourAbsolutely amazing trip to Pompeii from start to finish . Our guide was a wonderful hilarious and very knowledgeable guide called Amelia . This is a must if you would like to view Pompeii.Written August 10, 2023
- Road7829000 contributionsGreat Pompeii trip - perfect for kidsReally well organised trip and very knowledgeable, friendly, and fun guide. They give you a radio so you can hear what’s being said really clearly. It was a perfect trip for kids too as only 2 hours seeing the key things. You can then choose to stay longer or get the next train back. It’s flexible because they give you an open return train ticket. Oh - Pompeii is spectacular too! Highly recommended.Written August 8, 2023
- Huw t0 contributionsGreat tour led by GinoGino our guide was excellent . Very Informative. With interesting details. Gino mixed humour in his delivery which was well received by all. Really enjoyed the tour.Written August 6, 2023
- Keeley W0 contributionsGino was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and humouress too! A great way to explore Pompeii and it’s history.Fabulous way to explore and learn about Pompeii. Gino was a fabulous tour guide with lots of information to give out. Fab.Written July 13, 2023
- LaurenB3260 contributionsGreat Mixx of History + Humor!My family of 5 had a wonderful tour of Pompeii with Geno. He was very entertaining and knowledgable. He kept my 3 teens attention the whole time - not easy to do! Also meeting at the Sorrento train station is the way to go. Any reviews that say the train is dirty and not safe are crazy - it was so much better than trying to deal with the traffic. This is the perfect tour and if you want to stay longer you can. We loved it!Written June 18, 2023
- jodyliscombe0 contributionsPompeii lives in through guides like geno!Geno was absolutely fabulous!!! Amazing knowledge of the history of Pompeii mixed with his own humour!!! Made for a great tour!!!Written June 10, 2023
- Shelleydavis160 contributionsAnother highlight of our tripLuisa was a fabulous tour guide. Very informative and very knowledgeable of Pompeii. We could've stayed for hours. It was definitely worth the money for the guide and the direction. Meeting the tour guide in Sorrento was very helpful and they guided us off the local train. I will be recommending it to many people!! Thank you so much!Written June 2, 2023
- ScottfromMartell0 contributionsGreat Small Group Pompeii TourThis Pompeii tour was organized and informative. Our guide did a good job of leading our group and providing interesting facts about the city. The tour goes quickly and you see only a portion of the excavation, but you can see more after the official tour is over on your own.Written May 30, 2023

What a gorgeous day out!
We had the best time on this tour, getting to stop at some lovely swimming spots along the way to cool off in between visits to Amalfi and Positano.
Our guides were so wonderful, with heaps of knowledge of the area and very accommodating.
Will definitely book again next time we visit.

We recently (8/21/18) did the tour and loved every bit of it. We knew we wanted to see the Amalfi coast (we stayed in Sorrento) but didn't want to do it in a vehicle. We researched the best way to tour the coast via boat, and due to the great reviews, chose this tour. It was awesome! You get picked up from your hotel and taken to a port town (Massa Lubrense) closer to the coast and just a short car ride away. We didn't mind this and were aware (reviews). The people organizing this tour in Massa Lubrense were super organized and everything went off without a hitch. Our boat captain, Lucca, was an excellent skipper and the ride was super smooth! He was very accommodating and took us to all the cool coves and spots. You get some time to explore on your own in Amalfi and Positano (def walk up the right street that gets you the views of the marina). We stopped to swim a couple of times and it was amazing. Towards our way back, Lucca stopped at a waterfall and managed to get us close enough to touch it! For reference, the boat is a 30' 12+ person boat and is shaded.

This was an ok experience. The captain did not really talk to us much or interact with us. He played music loud and smoked the whole time. The bathroom was gross. Ride was fun and it was a good way to see the coast. Also, our transfer when we were dropped off was shifted to a taxi driver who was rude, smoked, and talked on the phone the whole time.

We booked the Amalfi Coast boat trip through Tui, and were really looking forward to see places we had not been to before!
Coach picked us up from our hotel to the Port as planned.
Joining the boat in Sorrento harbour was OK, but once out of the protection of the harbour, the sea started to change quickly and we had waves going well over the top of this boat!
As we headed around the 'Headland' of the Amalfi coast it got worse, many people were sick and it was not an experience I would like to do again!
The boat go us into Positano, just in time before the Waves crashed in, so we were able to enjoy Positano, but we never got to Amalfi or Ravello.
The Guides were trying do their best speaking to their office but there was so much lack of Information.
After standing a Bus Garage for one & a half hours in Positano, our transfer coach arrived and eventually we arrived back at our hotel.
We did receive a Refund.

This group was well organized and you couldn't beat the scenery from the boat. The captain took us through caves and coves and we got 2 hours in both Amalfi and Positano. Just one note, pick-up was at my hotel in Sorrento, but you are taken to the marina of a neighboring town about 25 minutes away for departure. Highly recommend.

Amazing weather and a wonderful cruise. Flavio was very willing to adjust the schedule, with a wonderful stop for swimming and great sandwiches. He liked my husband's hat. Great second honeymoon.

Great tour, highly recommend. Group of 12 people - we were accompanied by captain and the guide. Great swim from the boat, enjoy the stops and Positano and Amalfi. Minimal time to process the paperwork in the morning, lightning fast delivered home after disembarkation. Highly recommend.

I have no idea if there will be a boat those days. I suggest that you contact the boat operator and ask them. My guess is that they will have a boat. It was a wonderful tour and I recommend it highly. I hope you have a good trip!

They do stop for a bit to let people swim if they want to but you don’t have to. You can just relax on the boat if you don’t want to swim. When we went a couple of weeks ago it was a little cooler than usual but one person still wanted to jump in and swim so they did.

There was a tasting of limoncello on the boat for the tour that we had last summer. I don't remember seeing anyone with their own food or drinks on the boat so not sure about your second question. There were two swimming opportunities on the tour, once before reaching Amalfi and the second one after leaving Positano.
