          Tour made excellent with Marco as your driver
          Our experience was great. Marco gave us very informative information throughout our trip and made good suggestions of places to see along our route. I highly suggest Marco if you are looking for a nice and experienced driver. I would definitely hire his company and Marco again.

          Book this tour! It will not disappoint
          Book this tour! Listen I know it is tempting to save a couple bucks and do the semi-private tour but honestly it is 💯 worth the extra money to make your almalfi tour the way you would like and not have to wait on other tourists. Tony was our guide and we was so kind. He is a wealth of knowledge as well. He goes above and beyond to try to make sure you have the trip you want to experience. We loved him so much that we booked the next day to Pompeii with him which also did not disappoint! When we come back we will booking again. Don’t wait because I’m sure they will fill up with their bookings. We just went on the off season so we got lucky to find them. Thank you again Tony! See ya next time in Sorrento because Sorrento is the best!

          Amazing views! Fantastic Guide (Tony)
          We had an amazing time in the Amalfi Coast thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Tony. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the area but also displayed a remarkable level of care and responsibility throughout the entire journey. His guidance made our trip stress-free and enjoyable. We couldn't have asked for a better guide to show us the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. Highly recommend!

          The Amalfi Coast is a Italian Jewel. A Bucket list item that must be Experienced. The views are Amazing!
          Our Driver/Guide Marco was Superb. He communicated/coordinated with us even before disembarking our cruise ship as we had to be tendered to pier. He customized our excursion to fulfill our wishes and shared his knowledge of local history & culture. His attitude was upbeat and positive which complimented the beauty that is Amalfi perfectly.

          Excellent, knowledgeable and responsive tour guide!
          Tony saved the day! We had to pivot plans last minute due to our Amalfi coast boat tour getting cancelled because of unusually high winds. Tony was extremely responsive and very quick to communicate with me. He even called me via WhatsApp to understand our desires for the tour. He tailored the 9 hour day perfectly to avoid road work closures and still hit all the beautiful stops that interested us the most. Lunch in Ravello was our favorite stop followed be a gorgeous picture spot along the water in Positano. Tony offered to stop at a roadside ceramic shop and he didn't hesitate to give us a hands on experience with their chesnut cultivation! He spoke excellent English, made us feel safe and not motion sick along the windy roads and enriched our experience with stories of the rich history along our drive. His comfortable and clean van was much appreciated and even bottled waters. My husband and I can’t recommend Compass Tours enough. Thank you, Tony!

          Visit to Positano, Sorrento, and Amalfi Coast
          We had a great experience! We were staying in Positano and took a tour to visit Sorrento, Amalfi, Ravello, and other smaller enchanting towns like Fiordo di Furore. In spite of the rainy weather that day, we were able to enjoy the experience. We want to send a special thanks you to our guide, Marco, for his great explanations of the history, the geography, and the local cultures…but mostly for his candor and patience!! We were quiete an inquisitive crowd. Highly recommended!!! How to come back.

          Thank you! To our driver, Marco! We learned so much from you about the beautiful Amalfi Coast & felt so safe & relaxed.
          We just spent 2 days with our driver, Marco, who was not only punctual, but also very knowledgeable of the entire Amalfi Coast! His personality & attention to detail, as he drove us from Positano to Sorrento, Amalfi & Ravello, made our rides both days interesting & quite enjoyable. If you want a great safe driver, with excellent language skills & a wonderful sense of humor, as well as knowledge of the area, he is the driver I would highly recommend. Thank you again Marco, for making our vacation so memorable!

          Amazing tour of Amalfi Coast!
          This was an AMAZING trip for my wife and me. Our driver was Tony and he made the trip customized to our desires, but also was very knowledgeable with great suggestions! We had an amazing day from Positano into Amalfi, Revello, and Sorento. Great shopping, great meals, great experiences and he was very good at explaining the history of the coast. Would highly suggest this!

          Amalfi Coast and Sorrento Tour
          This was an enjoyable tour of the Sorrento peninsula. We started in Positano, toured Amalfi, stopped at a ceramics factory, and then went on to Ravello. Thereafter we drove towards Sorrento while experiencing awesome views. Our driver, Claudio, was entertaining, knowledgeable and helpful. Although we had options for lunch, Claudio ultimately arranged for a wine tasting paired with a multi-course meal. This was the highlight of our day.

        Tony reached out after we booked to check on what we were mostly interested in. If you have places in mind where you want to customize time or add more time than what is shown on the travel site, do let them know in advance.

        Our driver Marco was a great guide and good driver as well. He was punctual, and gave a lot of background on several towns as we drove by the coast. We toured Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. We spent an hour in Positano - Marco recommended spending time on the beach first to take the famous Positano snaps before tour bus crows arrived, which was a great tip.

        He also stopped at a place where we had fresh fruit juice (The instagram famous Salvatore!), and had a great view of the coast. We spent an hour and half in Ravello and 45 mins in Amalfi, which was sufficient.

        Overall the trip was good. Highly recommend for families with young kids as moving across Amalfi coast towns in SITA bus can be a pain as it gets crowded, especially in the afternoon.

        Our family of 4 had a brilliant day exploring the Amalfi Coast with Marco as our to guide. He was an exceptional driver and an excellent tour guide. We visited so many wonderful places and appreciated Marco’s flexibility in our schedule. We stopped at the emerald grotto in addition to the lovely coastal towns. Marco’s knowledge of the area is very good and despite it being a long day, it went very quickly as there is so much to see and experience. We don’t normally pay for a personal driver but this was well worth it. The streets would be too unfamiliar for tourists to navigate and you would miss out on so much local incidental knowledge that Marco shared. A great way to see the Amalfi coast for those on a limited schedule but don’t want to miss out on the highlights on this region.

        I booked this tour for my sister and me. It was at that point that the great customer service began. Tony reached out because I booked the and tour twice (I guess I was really excited). From there, I asked about other services, which is how they became our go to company for the entire time we were in the area. I'll start by saying I was on the fence about booking a private tour vs group tour. I'm so glad I went with the private tour. Marco was incredible. He gave just the right amount of commentary and tailored the experience based upon what we wanted to do. We were able to get many pictures, go shopping and enjoy the beautiful scenery a drive along the coast offers. We ended up using Marco for a ride from Naples airport to Sorrento that included a stopover with a private guide in Pompeii and a trip to the winery for much and wine tasting. He provided a ride for us to and from the Marina our trip to Capri as well as an early morning ride back to the Naples Airport. The Mercedes Sprinter van was clean and Marco was always on time. I would wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone for tour needs in the area! Thanks to Marco for making our trip most memorable!

        Had a great day with Marco on tour of the Amalfi coast. Marco did a great job telling us about the history of the area and the beautiful towns along the coast. Knew the perfect places to stop to give us the best photo opportunities and made sure we had time to stroll each town. Did his best to ensure we had a great time. Can't think of a better way that we could have had a chance to experience the Amalfi coast than we did with Marco. Would highly recommend seeing the Amalfi coast with Marco as your host.

        Due to a fire and possible landslides, the Italian authorities had closed the road between Positano and Amalfi, making our planned trip impossible. Tony went to exceptional lengths, texting/ringing me to inform me of the issues. We were gutted as we thought we were going to have to choose to do either Positano only or Amalfi and Ravello only but not all three towns. Tony came to our hotel twice to discuss alternatives and to ensure we managed to accommodate all interests of the members of my family. He worked out a way that we still got to see all three towns so we were delighted!

        He arranged for his brother Marco to collect us from our hotel and then take us to Positano, leaving us to spend a couple of hours in this beautiful town. Tony had checked out the ferry schedules for us before we went. We caught the ferry from Positano to Amalfi which was very easy to do and a comfortable and pleasant experience. It was a 25 minute trip along the beautiful Amalfi coast.

        Marco was there waiting for us in Amalfi, having driven the long way round over the mountain. During the trip Marco was so friendly, accommodating and full of information about the Amalfi coast. We had about 1.5 hours in Amalfi where we ate lunch. We then went onto Ravello which was another beautiful town before driving back to our hotel in Sorrento.

        I cannot thank Tony and Marco enough for going to exceptional lengths to ensure we got to do the day we had hoped for despite difficult circumstances. I would 1000% recommend Compass tours.

        We had a great day along the Amalfi coast with Marco as our driver. He was flexible with the itinerary which was great so that we could spend more time in Ravello.

        He was very knowledgeable about the area and shared that along the way.

        If you’re on the fence about getting a driver for this- it’s absolutely worth it. The roads are narrow and busy and we would have missed so much with all that driving would have required. It was great to be able to take it all in and let Marco navigate the road.

        Today we had an amazing day tour with Marco along the Amalfi coast. This was truly money well spent (and yes it may be more than other group tours but this was personalised meant we could see more). Marco gave us an amazing commentary of the area and history. He provided us with options and advice on things we might like to do and places to go. He stopped off at key point so we could take photo's. Having driven in Italy ourselves (it's hair-raising) I felt utterly safe with Marco at the wheel. He had bottled water for us and the Mercedes car had an amazing panoramic sunroof to even see upwards toward the lemon groves. Marco has perfect English so no fear of being mis-understood or mis-understanding. Marco was incredible patient whilst I shopped for ceramics. He even offered advice on place to see and go back in Sorrento. This was a highlight of our time on the Amalfi coast and no trip would be complete without this tour.

        We spent a fantastic day touring the coast with Marco, he was able to give us a very detailed and interesting narration while navigating the way along the coast road. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and the recommendations for photo spots, views, visits and even a great lunch. Thank you Marco for a fantastic tour!

        Marco was our guide and driver and he did a spectacular job. Marco was very knowledgeable, entertaining full of historical highlights and had great suggestions for how best to spend our day based on our interests. We spent time in Amalfi and Ravello (we requested to skip Positano as we had spent the previous day there. He asked if we had interest in Italian ceramics, which we do and he took us to a ceramic factory where we had so many choices and the prices were significantly lower than any place we had been. His recommendation for a bakery in Amalfi was spot on and delicious down to suggestions of what to order which were traditional to the area and absolutely delicious.
        Marco also is a very considerate driver and we always felt safe. It was a luxury to not have to worry about driving and spend our full attention on the historic and contemporary sights. It was genuinely a delight to see the Amalfi coast with the added enrichment of Marco's knowledge. THANK YOU MARCO, you really made our day very special. Grazie Millie! Mary and John P.
