Italy Trip - Day 2 - 4/8/26…read more When we arrived we walked directly off the plane and down a staircase when getting off the plane (just like the Lovable Lads of Liverpool) and directly into a crammed bus. Probably unnecessary, but i'm already thinking about pickpockets (which in my defense i'm always watching out for that, especially in big cities and on or near public transit - but now even more so). They drive us about 200 yards (would've been faster to walk than wait so long, but maybe that's a safety hazard, which is something they don't seem to care about here much otherwise, which is kind of refreshing in a weird way). We were then herded into the airport, while i watched a guy who was far behind us, skip past me and another 50 people or so. Another ten people that were behind me also broke in front of me. He must've had a hankering for pizza. -------------------------------------- Outside there was a line for citizens and a line for "all passports" or "tutti i" passports ("tutti" being "all" in italian? just don't call me "tutti frutti" okay?). Once we get inside the lines disappear, so it seemed kind of pointless to have us enter in lines outside and then come inside into just one big line again. That's not how we do in America. There then seems to be three lines - one for locals, and one for U.S. and or English speaking, and another for i don't what for - maybe for people that hate the "grind". There should have just been two groups: the people who's toilets flush and the water goes clockwise, and the other for peoples who's water flushes and goes counter clockwise (it's a joke, i know it's a myth, but they should do it anyway). When we walked up they asked if we were from the U.K. and although there's a lot of ugly / ugly toothed people from there i kind of took it as a compliment that we didn't scream "American" to them. Maybe i am a little cultured? After that we stop at a bathroom and i accidentally go into the family bathroom painted like a child's bathroom with airplane landing strip and one little room with two toilets.

Naples, Italy. The most 'freeform airport' I've experienced. I got to use NAP 2x, inbound…read morefrom IST, and outbound. The first visit was 12/1/24 during rush hour and it's very busy. Most flights are boarded outdoors as NAP is smaller relative to the number of flights serviced daily. The second was my return flight home via IST. Both times however I was able to use the small tech room to charge my electronics via 8 wall outlets. There are many charge stations throughout the waiting area and they service USB-A connections, much slower. When boarding begins each airline has its own protocols so be aware. Also gate announcements are made 30 min prior to departure times so you want to be super alert. Leave enough time cushion for unforeseen events like overcrowding in boarding areas, a bus to the plane and gate changes. Some users think NAP is chaotic; it can be. The positive to the experiences at NAP is food and clothes and sundries shopping: there are top notch stores, panettone even a Venchi outpost. The panini, sfogliatelle (2.3€) and pastries I've tested at NAP are top notch and for 5-7€ a piece, it's a bargain. Even cheaper is coffee, an espresso is 1.5€. Boarding is by zone and love that they board planes from the back seats to front: sensible and convenient. All in all a good average airport with superior food and shopping. End of Yelp.

We felt like we received a "mini" tour of the area on our ride from the train station. They are from the area and are very knowledgeable. They were so pleasant and professional! We loved them so much that we used them our entire stay! We also used them for a tour of the Amalfi Coast which was fantastic! We had a big group (11) and it was never a problem getting transportation. Very quick to respond. I highly recommend using them if you will be traveling in the area! They made us feel like family! Grazie mille, Enrica and Salvatore!

Ahead of time we had arranged transportation through Enrica. She was wonderful, timely, friendly, efficient and made my daughter feel very comfortable. We had a high comfort level knowing she was in safe hands. We can't thank Enrica enough for the safe delivery of our daughter to the airport! Grazie molto!

Thanks!! We hope there will be a next time ! We loved Italy! It's amazing and so much to see. But having someone drive you to your destinations really helps!

Lorenzo with Sorrento Transfers was the perfect driver and local guide! He was always early/on time…read morefor pick-ups. He recommended the absolute best places to eat and provided wonderful commentary about the region during transport. For those concerned about a language barrier, his English is great. He was easy to communicate with via email during the planning process: He always responded promptly and was very thorough. We just loved Lorenzo. He made the trip so relaxing and stress-free. He picked us up and dropped us back of in Rome. He took care of us during our three days in Sorrento, and, as I said, his recommendations were always spot on. he is a very kind-hearted man who is genuinely eager to make everyone's vacation a once-in-a-lifetime experience. This was my fifth time in Italy (so I've had my fair share of guides and transfers--this was the best!), but the first time either of my parents had traveled to Europe, so I really wanted to make it a special and relaxing experience for them. Lorenzo made sure that happened. I thought it his pricing was beyond reasonable. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

What a fantastic experience. Ciro, our driver was there waiting for us every step of the way. He…read morewas extremely flexible when we decided to adjust how long we wanted to do things. He even arranged for us to visit a lovely organic winery when we got overheated. They accommodated our dietary needs (2 carnivores and 3 vegetarians). The best was that after climbing Vesuvius, we were super hot and tired. I asked Ciro if there were a good place for Gelato. He drove us to his home town for the most amazing ice cream I have ever had. It is the ultimate experience as a tourist when someone kindly shows you the authentic best experiences from their home town. I can't say enough about Eurolimo. I will definitely be using their services again!

Nello was very easy to work with and quick to respond to my emails. Was so easy too. We let him…read moreknow what time our train would arrive at the Naples station and Marco was waiting at the end of the platform with a sign for us. We had a great day learning about the area and history. Nello had arranged a tour of Pompeii with Rosella, who was born and raised there. She was very knowledgeable and equally as adorable. We really enjoyed the tour. Then we were back on the beautiful, new Mercedes and on our way to lunch in Sorrento. From there we went to Positano for some shopping. The drive was uneventful (which is a good thing) and we felt safe and relaxed with Marco at the wheel. Our only regret was not having enough time to really explore in Positano. So I guess we will have to return soon!
