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".

Carmine is a great guide, so passionate and knowledgeable about his home region. We booked the tour at the very last minute and Carmine arranged it all for us and tailored it to suit our needs; and adjusted even further to accommodate us during the tour. I would recommend Carmine without any hesitation or doubt.

We group of 8 people just back from amazing cruise. We used Tours by locals for one day Naples-Sorrento-Positano tour with guide Carmine Foggie. It was wonderful tour. Carmine is great guide, really outgoing and easy to be with person. Hi loves his country, his city of Naples, has lot of knowledge and share them with us. We recommend him to people who is looking for the best guide to see Naples - Sorrento -Amalfi coast destination.

WOW! Way over the top! It was the best day of touring on our 9 day cruise to Italy and Greece. Carmine was excited and enthusiastic to show us his Amalfi Coast! It was an awesome day filled with beauty, fun and great food! Loved the farm to table experience and the beautiful cities of Poisitano and Ravello! Took many super pictures which I will turn into canvas prints. We took a private tour with Carmine and it is the only way to go! Thanks Carmine!! You are the best!!

Carmine was an excellent tour guide. Super detailed and friendly. He was very flexible with the schedule and showed us a lot of places which were off the tourist radar which was a nice change. The tour was very well planned with a lot of Scenic drives and enough time at various stops to take pics and enjoy the time in the various points of ravello, Positano and Almafi. The tour ended with a visit to the ruins of pompie. I would recommend Carmine to anyone who wants to see the coast from a locals eyes.

Carmine was fantastic! He took us on a wonderful tour and spoke very passionately about the Naples region- it was infectious! It was easily our best day in Italy. He brought us to a special lunch spot and that was the hightlight of the day! It was well worth it and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Naples!

Carmine was very accommodating, friendly and arranged the entire day from pickup in Sorrento, drive through the Amalfi coast, visit to Pompeii with a prearranged guide and drop off at naples train station. Would highly recommend.

Your Naples tour itinerary

Depart from your Naples hotel, Port Cruise or Train Station, board your private car and minivan and head towards your first stop: Sorrento. I will drop you off in Sorrento main square and you will have 1-hour to walk around the city on your own. Then driving towards Positano, your driver will stop in the best spots on the way so you can take pictures of these beautiful places. Upon arrival in Positano, I will wait for you while you explore one of the best cities located on the Amalfi coast. You will be able to stop here for lunch (at own expense), your driver will suggest you some restaurants and give you some tips about the best places to visit. After approx. 1-hour, board your private transfer again and head towards Pompeii. Upon arrival, enter the renowned UNESCO site (entrance ticket not included) and stroll around the Roman's ancient city (approx. 2-hour free time). You will stop in Sorrento and Positano for approx 1-hour and 2-hour in Pompei.
