Naples Tours and Trips

Enrico and Satva were delightful, organized and thoughtful guides. We loved hiking and learning about the natural places, Italian culture and life from these happy folks. 10 plus rating for guides. Nice accommodations in a well maintained, comfortable historic inn. The food and drinks were excellent and staff always helpful. I especially enjoyed my early am cappuccino on the lovely terraza overlooking a pastoral scene and Mediterranean Sea. Perfect! Well organized and paced trip. We also love hiking and connecting with other members of our group from Wales, New Zealamd, Britain, and US expatriates.

A fantastic week of varied walks in Amalfi due in no small part to our guide Gennaro. He was attentive, patient and kind and enthused us with his knowledge of the history, people, culture and landscape of the area. We really felt that we had got to know this area by the end of the trip. The walking was excellent. We had a very warm week and most ascents/descents are steps so you need to be fit/ready for this. It’s not technically challenging walking in any way. Accommodation was good but basic. Valentino and his family were lovely hosts and we had homemade food each evening. Only slight niggle is the very firm beds. We had a great group and you are added to a WhatsApp group when you arrive to share photos. This is a great idea but some companies set it up a couple of days before departure so everyone can introduce themselves. This can break the ice for those joining a group holiday for the first time. I would highly recommend this trip, particularly the guide Gennaro.

The hotel was comfortable and the staff and food were excellent. The walks were challenging but as described and Enrico was a great guide, informative and fun. I would recommend this holiday to anyone who wants to experience the Amalfi coast without too much intensity from Amalfi itself as it is v busy.

Hotel were organised to cater for my gluten free diet, so no problems with the GF pasta, pizza, etc. What let the hotel down slightly was the lack of GF options at breakfast. One one day I managed to get a GF bun, and other days I managed to get a couple of slices of bread, but there were a couple of days where there was no GF option available at breakfast. Otherwise, everything else was excellent including the lovely Gaia.

Without a doubt, one of the best tours we have been on. Everything from the tour guide (shout out to Michele), the itinerary, the activities, quality of accommodation, the food, the driver and the company of our fellow tour goers. We had time at each destination to enjoy the atmosphere, explore and learn without being rushed. We definitely felt like this was a unique back roads experience despite being in a very popular tourist destination. We would absolutely look at doing further Back-Roads tours.

This was an amazing trip! From meeting the group at the airport to the drop off a week later everything went really smoothly. Gennaro was our guide for the week. He was fantastic! His love for the Amalfi coast was evident everyday. He did a fabulous job of giving us a sense of what life is really like there. He was so eager to share all of his knowledge. It made the trip even better. He was patient and kind and kept us moving and on time with any bus or ferry trips we had each day. It felt like he knew all of us right away. We had a very cohesive group. I feel like I made friends for a lifetime. Staying at the farm in San Lazarro was even better than I expected. The family were such gracious hosts. The food was fabulous. Pasta and cheese making was so much fun. The accommodations were spotless. The hiking was definitely rigorous but we kept each other going. Gennaro was a great motivator and very encouraging to everyone. The views were well worth the hikes! I loved that we had time to swim a few times if we chose. The Mediterranean was gorgeous. I would highly recommend this trip and especially Gennaro!
