Pompeii Amalfi and Positano private tour

Definitely one of the most spectacular  day tour, covering the highlights of the Amalfi coast and the Bay of Naples.

You will be able to walk through the streets of Pompeii as the Romans did more than 2,000 years ago and then see the beautiful Amalfi town center of the amalfi coast and the spectacular Positano better know as romantic city. Day tour from your accommodation with a personal driver/guide that will show you all the best lookout spot to get pictures and safely drive you around as the road is very difficult to navigate. Plenty of photo stops along the way and time to visit the villages of Positano and Amalfi .

Best solution if you have very limited time as you can get a taste of everything in one day. your guide will give you important information about the history and the culture of the places that you are going to visit. 

It is almost ironic how thanks to such a devastating event like the eruption of mount Vesuvius in 79 D.C., today we have the possibility to visit one of the most fascinating locations in the world.
Once in Pompeii you really have the sensation to be transported nearly two millennia back in history, the city has been almost perfectly preserved by the layers of crystallized ashes remained by the Vesuvius, to the point that you will even see the casts of the citizens of Pompeii frozen in time in the last moments of their lives

The many frescos, most of which are still very well preserved, will gradually tell you the story of this ancient city, you will learn about the way of the people that lived there, you will get to know the names and the lives of notorius inhabitants of the city, you will see with your eyes what where the customs, the virtues and the vices of a community that on the fatal day of August the 24th, 79 AD., met their end by the eruption of mount Vesuvius, which with very little warning wiped the population of this bustling and flourishing city.

It is just one of its fourteen towns, but it has such an historical relevance that it gave the name to the entire coast.

This is Amalfi, known as one of the four ancient “Maritime Republics”, together with Pisa, Genova and Venice, called this way because they were the most important ports in Italy for the commercial routes with the east. The white houses separated from each other by narrow alleys and archways form a welcoming, charming little town where you can embrace the history and the traditions of a place that for many years has been considered the source of wealth of the Italian territory.

Once at the main square the Duomo of Sant’Andrea will simply leave you speechless, with its moorish inspired belltower and its incredible staircase at the top of which you will marvel at view of the square and truly feel the grandeur of this ancient town.

One of the most popular vacation places in Italy, Positano is without a doubt one of most romantic spots that you will get to see during the tour.

Also called the vertical city for the fact that it was completely built on the cliff of the moutain, Positano started as a fishing village but soon after its foundation it started to attract artists, writer and musicians. Since the 1950’s Positano has become a bustling resort town that never ceases to charm thanks to the its vivid pastel colours, the beautiful shops and boutiques, the luxurious hotels and restaurants and, most important, the amazing views. From the marvelous beach of Positano you will be able to bask in sunlight while admiring the Islands of Li Galli, a small achipelagus of three islands where, according to the Greek mythology, the sirens use to live and where even Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev decided to spend the last year of his life.

Positano is simply a little gem, a place of such charm that will leave you with memories that you will cherish for ever.
