Amalfi Coast drive with Francesco del Pizzo

I wanted to send out some great feedback for Francesco del Pizzo, the private driver listed in the RS Italy book for the Naples / Amalfi Coast area. I booked Francesco for a tour of the Amalfi Coast and transfer to Naples for our family of 6 (me, wife, kids 22, 17, 17, 12). We were checking out of our Sorrento AirBnB that morning and wanted a tour of the Amalfi Coast before heading back to Naples to see the Naples Archeological Museum before catching a train back to Rome. Francesco was very professional and picked us up on time. His Mercedes van had plenty of room for all of us plus luggage. The drive was absolutely stunning and we stopped at several scenic overlooks, in Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. He took us to a nice Italian restaurant for lunch (Trattoria Pizzeria Cumpa' Cosimo) in Ravello before heading to Naples. He waited for us while we spent a couple hours at the Naples Archeological Museum, then dropped us off at the Napoli Centrale station. It was pretty spendy for the tour + transfer + museum, but well worth the money at 450€. I would definitely recommend Francesco as a private driver for anyone!

Happy travels!

That is quite reasonable for the extensive service offered. Sounds like a good recommendation.

I hope you still look at this site. We have booked Francesco for our transfers. He wants us to pay cash. Did you pay cash or were you able to pay by credit card?

Thank you -

Hi Michelle,

We did end up paying cash. It seems like a lot given the price and I was a little wary, but it worked out ok in the end. I paid when he dropped us off at Napoli Central.
