        I can't imagine having taken this tour with anyone other than Pasquale!
        Pasquale and DriverItaly.it helped make our Italy dream trip perfect. Our Amalfi Coast private excursion included going all the way down to Paestum to see the Greek ruins there. On the way down the coast, we visited Positano and drove through Amalfi. On the way to Paestum, Pasquale recommended and drove us to an amazing buffalo farm and restaurant, Barlotti, right next to the Paestum historic site. It was a highlight. Pasquale was always early, fun to be with and talk to, and very informative. Plus, his English is excellent. He accommodated all our needs and I would recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for a consummate professional to ensure their special trip goes off without a hitch.

        Wonderful Tours
        Pasquale has been a fantastic tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the region, very friendly, and very reliable. We met him on our first day in Naples, then booked him for more excursions during our stay. We highly recommend him!

        Great day out
        Pasquale picked myself and my husband up from our hotel in Naples for a day trip to Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi on Mar 29. Firstly the transport a Mercedes minivan was very comfortable and clean. Pasquale was a considerate driver and made us feel very safe (considering the driving in Naples, which is an experience). He was a lovely guy, very polite and very knowledgeable. His English was excellent. He knew all the right places to stop for views. On the way back we came through the "Milky" mountains, again this was lovely with spectacular views. We had booked this trip for our 40th wedding anniversary and it certainly made this very special for us. Thank you Pasquale, we shall be recommending you to our friends.

        Amalfi coast tour - Our best tour in Italy
        There's a reason everyone gives Pasquale excellent reviews. We went with 2 other couples on a cruise ship excursion and Pasquale showed us Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and above all, he is a very good and SAFE driver, which is what you want when you get out in the traffic and narrow roads of the Amalfi coast. His Mercedes van was clean and comfortable, with different climate control zones. Although he didn't name drop, he did tell us some entertaining anecdotes (when we specifically asked) about the celebrities that he has had as clients. Although he has a general itinerary for specific tours, he reads his clients and adjusts on the fly to give them what they will enjoy the most. His knowledge of the history and geography of the local area made for an enjoyable day trip. All told, it was probably the highlight of our 2 weeks in the mediterranean. The other 2 couples asked me after the tour how I ever found this guy. (thanks tripadvisor) And thank you, Pasquale, for an awesome day!

He made the trip to the airport enjoyable!! I would highly recommend him for any driving needs . Thank you for being flexible with our time. Don't hesitate to use Pasquale.

        Fantastic and knowledgeable driver - highly recommend
        We hired Pasquale for airport transfers, pick up and return, from Naples to Positano, as well as a trip to Vesuvius and Pompeii. He was fantastic, highly knowledgeable of Naples and the Amalfi coast. Having told Pasquale the trip was a surprise for my husband's 30's we were greeted with a mini bottle of prosecco when he first picked us up - such a lovely touch. A fantastic driver, would highly recommend to anyone visiting the region, would certain book with Pasquale again if we returned.

        Best Amalfi coast tour
        Our group of four ladies were using Naples as a home base and wanted to tour the Amalfi coast as well as Pompeii. Okay- that was a mistake on our part- that is too much for one day. Pasquale picked us up at our hotel and off we went. We had a really wonderful day. Pasquale is an incredible guide- and he didn't even mind when, later in the day, several of us fell asleep on the way to Pompeii. We blame this (falling asleep) on having a really full day and a wonderful lunch at a place recommended by Pasquale. My advise to anyone wanted a tour in the area: (1) hire Pasquale (for more than one day if you can) and (2) let him help you decide what to fit in a day- hey he is the expert. Whatever you choose to do- Pasquale will make it happen and you will be very happy with your experience.

        The Highlight of our trip to Naples!
        My partner and I visited Naples in August for five days and had booked a trip with Pasquale for our third day there. It was the absolute highlight of our trip and the service from Pasquale was absolutely faultless. He was extremely knowledgable about Naples, the Amalfi Coast and all of the surrounding areas. We started our trip in the morning, driving through Naples on the way to the Amalfi Coast. Pasquale told us lots of interesting history and facts as we drove and answered any questions we had. We visited Sorrento, Positano and lastly Amalfi. We did so much on the trip - stopped off for limoncello with a great view of Sorrento, saw the beautiful coast of Positano, taking in the scenery whilst relaxing with a drink on the beach, had the most amazing lunch in Praiana in a lemon grove over looking the sea (which was recommended by Pasquale), had coffee and ice cream in Amalfi and just enjoyed the amazingly relaxed atmosphere that Pasquale provided. The views during the trip were also breathtaking; I've added a few photos. Being able to visit three great places in one day was so amazing and wouldn't have been possible in the time we had without having the tour from Pasquale. He provided excellent service throughout the trip and we have already decided to book with Pasquale again when we return to Naples!

        Driver - super helpful for private transfers and tours in Naples
        Pasquale was an excellent and incredibly helpful driver and his english is excellent. We originally booked him for a transfer from the airport to our hotel in Naples for 5 people. He replied to my emailed enquiry immediately and offered a good discount. At the airport he was there to greet us with a lovely, air-conditioned (essential in summer) minivan. We then booked him for the return airport transfer, again he replied immediately. During our holiday we decided to visit Herculaneum at the last minute as we had an afternoon free. Although Pasquale was already booked he took a lot of time and effort to find us an alternative driver on a day when a cruise ship had booked all the private drivers. If visiting Naples in summer I highly recommend private tours, the public transport is good but really really busy so in my opinion it is worth paying to be able to travel in air-conditioned comfort and you get the benefit of all the local knowledge and stories.

        Pasquale is THE best
        Don't hesitate to book Pasquale for all your driving needs in Amalfi coast, you will be in very good hands. He is fantastic, very knowledgeable, funny, and took such great care of our family. He pointed out things we would otherwise have missed and introduced us to one of our favorite gems of the trip-the winery lunch for sampling of la crema christi wine! By the end of the day, I wanted to hug him-he felt like part of our family. Pasquale, we hope you and your wife take us up on our invitation to come to our home for Thanksgiving so we can introduce you to the American tradition! Thank you for everything! -The Prakke family.

        Private guided tour of Pompeii
        Private tours are the way to go! We had a full day going to Pompeii, Sorrento and driving the Amalfi Coast which was breathtaking. Our driving guide was Pasquale who was amazing. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Naples & Pompeii and kept us laughing the whole time. His driving skills are excellant as the Amalfi Coast is all mountain roads and very narrow. Pasquale is polite and very easy to talk to. He also recommended a very good restaurant in Sorrento for our lunch. The ruins of Pompeii is not to be missed. We also had a private guide, Giuseppe (included in the tour)to take us through Pompeii and tell us of the history there. I would definatley recommend this tour with Pasquale
