About
Considered as the most dangerous volcano in the world because of its explosive nature, due to the violence of its eruptions that had caused considerable damages to the surrounding populations. The most famous eruption happened in 79 A.D which almost destroyed the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. The Vesuvius is certainly a must if you come to Italy; located right in the middle, between Naples and Pompeii, it is very easy to be reached thanks to the nearby motorway. Very characteristic are also the vineyards that can be found on the volcano, in fact some of the wines produced here are among the most exported ones all over Italy. It is curious to know that the Vesuvius today is 1,284 meters high, while before the eruption of 79 A.D. it is thought to have been double or most likely even triple

- Roam319580931060 contributionsPrivate Naples Tour to RememberWe had engaged Paolo for a previous transfer from Naples to Rome. He made such an impression on us that we had to look him up when we returned a year later. This time, in addition to another transfer to Rome with him, we also did a day tour of Naples with Paolo. It was great. We did this as a day-trip from Rome. Paolo recommended that we get off of the train at a smaller and quieter train station near Naples where he met my wife, my son and me. He took us to parts of the city we would have otherwise never experienced. We had a great lunch at a high-end, waterfront pizzeria, and got to also visit the Archeological Museum. Paolo gave us the option to stop at Pompeii on the way to Rome but that would have entailed us getting up too early! His enthusiasm for his Napoli and the breadth of his historical knowledge was also very impressive. One of my wife's goals for the visit to Naples was to purchase an authentic Neapolitan Presepe ( Christmas Nativity Scene. ) Paolo researched this for us prior to our visit and recommended a very nice shop where we found exactly what we wanted. Paolo's professionalism will bring us back to the area in the summer of 2025. We hope to take him up on his recommendation that we visit Pompeii, the Neapolitan Royal Palace and a local vineyard. We have never engaged him to takes us down the Amalfi Coast but one could not go wrong using Paolo's company. Whether you just need a transfer or are fortunate enough to be in the Naples/Amalfi region long enough to explore, I highly recommend this company and this fine young man.Written 12 January 2025

- TravelingBoags0 contributionsPaolo is a great driver, wonderful servicePaolo was great from start to finish. From first contact he suggested an easier train station than I had planned. Communication was fantastic, he arrived 45 minutes early to pick us up to ensure we were on time. He was an interesting tour guide, knowledgeable, and made suggestions along the way. We made better than planned for time through the Amalfi Coast so he offered to set up reservations at a vineyard on Mt Vesuvius which was very enjoyable. We were referred to him by friends and will be referring him to others!Written 29 September 2024

One of the best personalized pickup and guided tour service we’ve ever had from Paolo
He was so considerate and kept the communication open via WhatsApp with both his text and detailed instructions as voice memos in English. We had him help us to drive from Naples station to Positano with a stop over at Mount Vesuvius.
If you tour from Naples to some of these not so we’ll connect area (no high speed trains or reliable public transport) with a break in between for my. Vesuvius, you will not find any convenient options.
But Paolo’s service and personal attention, this trip was wonderful for us. He was explaining all the details about the location and kept the long journey very engaging and helpful. Fully recommend Paola’s service for your travel needs.

It was an amazing experience. Paolo was an extremely friendly and kind driver who was very knowledgeable on the area we toured. He knew so many fun interesting facts that really brought to life the rich history that embodies the country of Italy. His driving skills should also not go unmentioned. It was a very smooth ride and my kids were able to fall asleep within moments of leaving the train station. (This was good because they had hardly gotten any sleep on the trip over). Once again I highly recommend Paolo, not just because of his skill at driving and his knowledge of the area, but because of his kind spirit and friendly personality. If you are looking for a ride from the station to whoever you might end up, Paolo is your man!
