Full and busy day driving the beautiful and rugged Amalfi Coast, 2 stops along the way to walk the towns for about 45 minutes each, followed by a drive to Paestum with a quick lunch and guided tour. Both the driver and guide were personable and pleasant. The ruins are amazing and shockingly empty. The best preserved Greek temples in the world. Don't miss this if you have any interest in ancient history.

Beautiful drive and stops along the Amalfi Coast to Paestum. Emerald Grotto was a fun experience. The Greek temples and Museum at Paestum are remarkable. It is really nice to be able to walk inside the temples. Both our driver and tour guide were very knowledgeable and friendly.

<p>We had a terrific time on this tour - our driver was a lot of fun and took his time to make sure we saw everything that we wanted to. He stopped in a number of different towns, some that weren't even on the original agenda, to make sure we got the true local feel for the area. He had selected a very good restaurant for lunch and was professional and courtesy throughout the trip. He was really quite good and we were lucky to have spent the day riding with him. In Paestum, we were also fortunate to have an excellent certified tour guide who patiently went through the history of the area and answered our questions. She was surprised to see Americans come here as it's a bit off the beaten path. I'd highly recommend Paestum as a site to visit just for it's temples, but the museum was very nice as well. If you are in Sorrento, Amalfi, Positano, or anywhere on the coast, this is a tour you must book. I'd also note that if you or someone in your group has mobility concerns, this is a great way to visit the coastal cities since you have a driver who can drop you off and pick you up from central locations with the exception of Positano only. I highly recommend this tour.</p>

Immerso nella natura il sito archeologico di Paestum rappresenta l'espressione di varie culture unite nel tempo dall'arte e dal rapporto di equilibrio tra uomo e ambiente. Vicine le grotte di Castelcivita molto particolari.
