From a review on TripAdvisor Ciro took 6 of us from the cruise terminal, just in time. We drove along the coast, stopping in Positano for an incredible photo opportunity, spent 2 hours exploring Sorrento alone, then we went to Pompeii where Ciro helped us to organize a guided tour. Along the way, he took us to an authentic pizzeria where we ate a delicious lunch. It was a wonderful day, and Ciro was so educational and fun! Highly recommended!
