Our foursome toured Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast with the help of Giovanna Donadio. Giovanna coordinated our pick up from the Naples train station with a private driver (her husband, Francesco) who then took us to Pompeii where we received a private tour from Goivanna's sister in law - Luisanna, who is pleasant, informative, interesting and passionate about the history of Italy.
We left Pompeii and had lunch at a lovely winery suggested by Giovanna and then were driven to our hotel by Francesco.
Luisanna also gave us a private tour the next day in Sorrento. We visited a restaurant that served divine pizza in a rustic atmosphere followed by delicious gelato at a gelato place. Luisanna very patiently answered every question and did not flinch at our constant interruptions. She was a very entertaining guide with a warm personality. I was very sad to see the last of Luisanna, until our next trip!
Giovanna also arranged a driver for us to tour the Amalfi Coast. Ferdinando was our driver and he was fabulous and very gracious. Ferdinando took us to Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. The trip went long and he just rolled with it, saying the traffic was bad. No worries.
Giovanna Donadio answered every email and whatsapp message I sent (there were hundreds, I think) before the trip, during the trip, and after the trip. Giovanna was flexible and made adjustments for us when necessary. She is a travel goddess and I recommend putting your trust in her. Our trip was such a success with her help, knowledge and expertise.
Giovanna's email address is [email protected].
