Hello my name is Carmine. The original Carmine mentioned in all editions of Rick Steves books. My father started as a tour guide in Naples in 1952 with a single hope to share the Italian culture with anyone who wanted to experience it. In 1989 I joined my father as a certified escort and guide in Italy and focused on my hometown of Naples and the Amalfi Coast. I have been sharing my hometown for over 27 years now and I have come to see that visiting my region can be very commercial. Most who visit never really got to feel Naples and the Amalfi coast for what it truly was. This region is filled with culture and experiences far beyond the tourist traps most tours limited their guests to. It is my goal for my guest to experience Italy, not just see it. It is one thing to visit my country but it another thing to experience it. I want my guests to experience the Amalfi Coast and live the Italian culture, even if it is only for one day. But he only way to do this is to get off the beaten path, step back into a world that has not been affected by progress or change and immerse yourself in the culture of this region. We breakaway from the tour bus experience and traverse small roads overlooking the most beautiful coast on the Mediterranean Sea. When you visit you will enjoy a true Farm to Table lunch experience. We will walk the terraced hillside and see where your food and wine came from and feel what it is like to be welcomed into the home and restaurant of an Italian family. This is the Italian Culture experience you are looking for. When you experience the Amalfi Coast through my eyes you will see Italy for what it really is. Come, let me show you my hometown. That's only one of the countless reason why you should contact me and find out more about it. I am positive that if you will come along on one of my tours you will absolutely love it, , and at the end of of your tour experience, like all my previuous guests you will refer to the tour as "Carmine's Secret Tour "aNickname that was given to me by Rick Steves . This caused a phenomonea within the travel business along the Amalfi coast. That many are trying to immulate my tour "Carmine's Secret Tour". If you want the authentic original and realexperience of the secreets of the Amalfi Coast. . Come join me om my secret adventuar tour "Carmine's Secret Tour".

Our private tour of the Amalfi Coast with Carmine was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. From beginning to end, Carmine was friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and completely focused on making the day special for us. He even managed to keep our 18-year-old daughter fully engaged throughout the entire trip. Not an easy thing to do... His driving was excellent, and his careful planning and timing allowed us to enjoy Ravello, Amalfi, and Positano without ever feeling rushed. He personalized the entire experience around our interests, giving us plenty of time to explore, shop, take photographs, and enjoy the spectacular scenery. He took us to very special places that tourist do not normally get to visit. The boat ride from Amalfi was breathtaking, with unforgettable views of the coastline, fishing villages, historic towers, natural arches, and the Fjord of Furore. Carmine also gave us wonderful recommendations, including an excellent restaurant where we enjoyed traditional local food with an incredible view. The luxury Mercedes vehicle was clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned with a great suspension system that made the many twists and turns of the coastal road much more pleasant. This is not a road a tourist should attempt to drive in a rental car. Carmine’s knowledge of the area, warm personality, and attention to every detail made the day effortless and memorable. We could not have asked for a better guide or a more enjoyable way to experience the Amalfi Coast. We highly recommend Carmine to anyone looking for a personalized, first-class tour of this beautiful region. Thank you, Carmine, for an absolutely unforgettable day!

We had the best day with Carmine! Everything was perfect. Loved exploring the little villages and Amalfi. Such a perfect day from start to finish. Carmine is very knowledgeable and you can tell he loves his job. I'm a travel agent and will be referring my clients to him because I know they will love him.

Carmine was incredible. He picked us up on time and took us on a tour of the island that we would not have received otherwise. He catered to my teenage children, stopped for amazing photo opportunities, and shared great information along the way. He was not with us on the boat tour, which was not a private tour but a larger ferry-like boat through the Amalfi Coast. Other than that, he brought us to great local places, stopped for amazing food, and made the entire day fun. I would highly recommend him.

Carmine was fantastic! He was very pleasant and engaging. He is very knowledgeable about Naples and the surrounding areas. He had a plan scheduled to help us get the most out of our time visiting Ravello, Amalfi and Positano. We wish we had more time to spend exploring each of the areas. There were so many amazing views. We highly recommend Carmine and would use him again if we visit the area again.

Cannot say enough good things about Carmine!!! He was absolutely FANTASTIC!! His knowledge of the area is unmatched. The tour of the Amalfi coast was more than what I could have dreamed of. He took us to the most amazing stops and hidden gems away from the big tour busses. He was also hilarious and so much fun which made the experience even better. Thank you so much, Carmine!!!

Your Naples tour itinerary

Visit Ravello, a famous and panoramic center, discovered and frequented by numerous personalities of every art, attracted by its intellectual appeal and the charm of its architecture and its famous villas and have a good time before we head to Amalfi. Enjoy shopping time along the streets of the downtown together with the amazing views. Mid Morning: Visit Amalfi , where you will depart from the port and sail around the enchanted villas, old sighting towers, natural arches and fisherman's villages, through Atrani, Amalfi, Conca dei Marini, Santa Croce, and Fjord of Furore…for a dream trip along the most beautiful coast of the world: a breathtaking show…(The tour lasts 40 minutes), there are 20 minutes more to visit the Main Square , tasting the famous Santa Rosa "Sfogliatella". For your lunch break I can suggest one of the best restaurant with traditional food. If you do not choose a sitdown meal, we can continue along the Amalfi coast for it's amazing views for picture stops along the way.
