MochaChip23 Posted June 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Has anyone used the company below for a shore excursion? This one with the driver and 30-minute boat ride seems interesting. Is this doable in the time we have which is from 630am - 430pm from Naples port?

euro cruiser Posted June 15, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2022 It looks like it departs at 8:30, wasting the first two hours of your port time, but I don't see where it specifies when it gets back. You need to determine that first. As I read the description this is a very long bus ride with a couple of short stops, for lunch and a wander in Amalfi followed by a half hour boat ride, then a stop at Ravello. The bus ride alone in the summer will require about five hours. If you allow 90 minutes for lunch and a short wander at Amalfi, plus 30 minutes for the boat ride and a 30 minute stop at Ravello you're already at seven and a half hours, too tight for a 4:30 departure if the start time is 8:30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mapleleaves Posted June 15, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 15, 2022 At the top of the page it says DURATION 8 hrs. Since it starts at 8:30am, you wouldn't get back to the ship until 4:30p. (We hired a private driver for the day in Naples.. In 2019 the cost was 400E for 8 hrs. To get views from the water, we had our driver take us to Positano first, where we caught the ferry to Amalfi. We met up with the driver again in Amalfi and went on to Ravello. With your limited port time, you'd probably have to end your tour in Amalfi. To share the cost, look on your roll call for another couple to share.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for pointing the timing out. We will need to find something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
