This is our third time working with Mario & his team. When we knew we were returning to the Amalfi Coast I reached out to him first to make certain we could have his help planning our day. As with the last two times, we were thrilled with our itinerary and guide. Mario is easy to communicate with and is very responsive to questions and offering options to put together the best day for our group.
On our tour day, we unfortunately arrived late into Salerno but Alex was there waiting for us and was an absolute delight. We were going to stop at Pasticceria Sal De Riso in Minori at the start of our drive for pastries but due to the timing of other activities that got pushed to the end of the day (and it was so worth the stop!) The Mercedes van that we were in was incredibly comfortable and the AC worked well as we were there during the worst of the heat wave! Alex also had a microphone that made hearing him (and us) in the 3rd row just as if we were sitting net to him. We stopped in Ravello before the crowds arrived which was spectacular. Then on to a stop in Conca dei Marini for a quick lemon tour with the chef, Fiore, of Le Bonta del Capo. We then went to the restaurant to make limoncello with the chef who is hilarious and the activity so entertaining for our group of 7 aged 18 to 56. After the limoncello we enjoyed a delicious multi-course lunch overlooking the water. As we worked our way back to Salerno Alex stopped for pictures, was so friendly and shared such great information with us during our day. He never rushed us yet had us back at the port with ample time to spare.
Can't recommend this group enough. When I return to Napoli/Amalfi Coast they will be the ones I trust to pull together an amazing day (or days!) for me and my family.
