A private car with driver will pick you up from the port of Naples and will take you for a fascinating tour through Pompeii ruins. This amazing place once a thriving empire, the city of Pompeii had about 20,000 inhabitants in 79 AD, when it was completely covered in 30 feet of volcanic ash by the deadly eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Listen to your guide as he tells you the history of the city as you take in the baths, villas, theaters and wrestling grounds.

Dear Josephine
I am unsure how to send our comments to Trip Advisor 'Fordors' as I do not have an email address or any other details for them. However I would be more than happy for you to pass on our comments regarding your services.
The service we received from you was first class. It was reassuring to be met both in Naples and Rome by drivers who were not only helpful, polite & friendly, but also knowledgable about their specific area. We will certainly use Italy Limousine again when we next visit Italy.
Kind regards
Gerry Sarylem.

Dear Josephine,
We really want to thank you and our driver, Franco, for an enjoyable amalfi coast drive. Even though our cruiseship was late getting into port, you had our driver there waiting for us, we can't thank you enough for that. Franco was great,he was very informative about our tour and gave us enough free time to explore on our own. We also stopped in pompeii and that was a perfect ending to a perfect day.
Thanks again,
Sam and Trudy
