View on Google MapsHighly recommend Sylvio as a driver and Daniella for a Pompeii guide! Our experience was amazing, Sylvio picked us up at the train station and was playing some awesome tunes then he drove us to Positano where we had amazing views of the Amalfi coast and the towns on the drive over. He detailed many facts and tidbits about the area and his hometown Pompeii on the drive as well. Sylvio then surprised us with a visit to the Limoncello store on the way to Positano and we had the BEST time at the store, we really appreciated it we spent a lot of Euros haha. After exploring Positano, snapping some photos and enjoying the ocean breeze for a little while then headed back to the car. Sylvio continued playing some awesome tunes and chatted about the history of the area while driving us to Tenuta Nunziata winery for lunch and a wine tasting. I have to say this winery food was the only disappointing thing about the day, I wasn’t great and neither was the wine. But, the grounds were beautiful and the staff were incredibly nice. Lastly, we piled in the car to head to Pompeii for our tour where we had Daniella for our tour guide and she was AMAZING. She is so knowledgeable and we really enjoyed the city, this was the best tour we’d been on! Then we got in the car one last time with Sylvio and safely dropped us back at the train station. This was an all day affair. Crowd sizes in Positano were medium-large crowds and Pompeii is a lot more space so it didn’t feel as crowded. The winery wasn’t crowded at all.

We had several days of tours with Gianluca's drivers. First was a pickup from the Naples train station to the winery near Mt. Vesiusus, Pompei, ending with a drop off at our hotel in Sorrento. We then had the tour of the Olive Oil and Lemoncello Factories, next day was the Buffalo Mozzarella Farm and Paestum, a day down the Amalfi coast, a last minute trip into Naples. And on our final day a drop off at the Naples train station. What can be said about an absolute wonderful time. We were 10 cousins, where some of us have been in the area before and some for the first time. During our stay we used 3 of Gianluca's drivers, Antonio, Francesco and Joe. Each driver based on their intimate knowledge of the area added their insightful comentary to our private tours. The value of having experienced drivers who speak your language, English, and who are familiar with the area; makes for a safe, comfortable, and most enjoyable trip. If there was a traffic jam going into Naples, the drivers knew which side streets to take. We highly recommend Gianluca's Private Tours and will definitely use them again.

No need to look any further. I’ve used Gianluca for years now. Each and every time has been wonderful. He and his time become your family when you visit. Trust worthy, reliable, professional and fun. Whether it is Positano, Pompeii each experience was perfection. Shot out to Joe - what a host!! Amazing day. Thank you, my friend. And, Gianluca… thanks again for all you do!! You are a true gem.
Gianluca was the best! Picked us up in Rome and drove us to Pompeii for private tour, then lunch at the winery and on to Sorrento. He gave us tips on where to eat and what to do. We were extremely pleased with the service he provided. Highly recommend.
Absolutely fantastic day at sea on a beautiful boat touring Capri. Our captain Luigi was incredible. A 5 star experience!!
I have been working with Gianluca for several years and referred him to several of my friends and colleagues. He runs an exceptional company with only the best drivers and tour guides. I would highly recommend using Gianluca and his team for your travels to Italy. Dayna Comeau Brown (Canada)
We picked this day excursion with Private Day Tours over the cruise excursions offered by Norwegian Cruise Line. Once off the ship, we were promptly greeted by our driver, Aldo. We were whisked away to Sorrento to walk around on our own and see the beautiful city by the sea. Our drive to Sorrento was highlighted by incredible vistas of the cliff side shore line. Aldo stopped to let us take in the views and snap a quick pic. Our next stop was a small winery with fantastic views of Mount Vesuvius. We were given a tour and then sat down to a fantastic and filling lunch. For dessert we had a ricotta cake that was the best I’ve had. The chef has her own cookbook and spent time greeting us and telling us about her life. The wine was delicious as well. We ended the tour at Pompei with a private guide. Everyone we saw let us know that we had the best guide at Pompei. She showed us all the highlights and relayed the incredible story of Pompei. We loved having the personalized attention and someone to answer all of our questions. Aldo was very entertaining for our drive and also very knowledgeable. We could tell that he loved to share his insight into his home. When Aldo dropped us off at the ship there was an incredibly long line to board. Instead of dropping us off, he offered to wait with us. There was no need but it was a kind gesture. He proceeded to question his friends and fellow tour guides to find out the problem and returned to let us know the issue with the line. We would definitely recommend this tour to all of our friends. If we are ever lucky enough to return to Italy I’m sure we will try some of the other tours offered by Private Day Tours.
We had the pleasure of booking two tours with Gianluca -- one for Pompeii/Herculeo/Winery and then for a private boat tour of Capri, Both were exceptional experiences. Aldo, our amazing driver for the Pompeii experience, made our vacation, helping us get lost luggage! He was so fun and knowledgable and was truly a pleasure to be around! If not for him calling the airport and numerous other agencies, our luggage would still be lost. He saved the day and help us make the most of our time at the historical sites. Our tour guide Francisco, knew the best places to show us during the historical site visits. We also enjoyed our day trip to Capri with Andrea and Alessia. They were very knowledgeable and accommodating. Andrea knew the best kept secrets of Capri and was a terrific caption and shared his grandmother's Limoncello with us. 5 out of 5 stars for everything.
We had a great day with Laura. She was timely picking us up and had lively conversation in route to Pompeii. She gave us plenty of time in Pompeii as well as the winery. It was so nice to let someone else do the planning and coordinating. She was very agreeable to stop and let us take pictures along the trip. Very good and prompt communication prior, during and after our activity. Highly recommend!
The owner, Gianluca Savarese, arranged for us a full day tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum with a private guide, Daniela Mantice. It was an incredibly fascinating day, learning the history of both sites from an expert in art history and early Roman history. She tailored the explanations to our group and made it interesting for the kids. Our driver, Lello, was helpful, easygoing, and very safe and made a great lunch recommendation. I give Gianluca and his group my highest recommendation.
