Daniele was a superb!
Jul 2007
We loved all of our tours with Driverinrome. Our guides were awesome and provided so much information that we would have never learned by doing the tours on our own. I did write a note in your guest book if you'd like to read it. Our time with Ramona was fabulous-she was humorous, adorable and so well versed in the history of Lucca and Pisa. We loved her stories and jokes. Daniele was a superb guide who knew all the shortcuts and back ways into the city. We saw every single sight that we wanted to see in Rome and a few extra surprises too. His knowledge of Rome and the sites is tremendous. He was also very accommodating when we unexpectedly had an extra nephew take a couple of tours with us and requested a stop at Villa San Pio to pick up an item my daughter left behind in the hotel room the week before. Thank him for being so flexible. Our trip with Nello was awesome-he was so incredibly knowledgeable about Pompeii that we wished the tour was longer. The teens loved this tour the best due to Nello's exuberance about the history of Pompeii. Sorrento was such a beautiful town-we loved the shopping and the Lemoncello. The drive to the Amalfi coast was breathtakingly beautiful. Positano was beautiful and we plan to revisit the area soon when we can spend more time there. Our favorite tour of all was the one to Palermo. Our guide Angela was thrown off guard when we asked if we could find the village of Filaga where my Grandfather was born and raised. After Angela conferred with the driver we were off for the 1-hour ride to the village. We were so lucky to meet a cousin who has the same name as our Grandmother Antonina Dino. There were many tears of joy and this by far was the most memorable part of the trip. Special thanks to Angela who never really got the chance to show us all the lovely sites of Palermo but for catering to our wishes to find Filaga/Prizzi. We hope to revisit Sicily and Palermo and learn more about their rich history and traditions. We have to say that all the restaurants that were recommended by the guides were never a disappointment. The food was delicious for everyone and we thank all of them for taking such good care of us all. We sadly did use another company in Monaco our first port of call on our cruise. I have to say that they did not even come close to the excellent service you provided. The guide told us very little of the history, traditions, or people of the area. This was a disappointing tour and we probably would have been better off booking a tour from the ship instead of with this company. Thank you all for your expert service and for the guides who were all so wonderfully knowledgeable about all the areas that we visited. I have already recommended you to my in-laws and a colleague who will be traveling to Italy in September and I will continue to highly recommend your services to all my friends and family who may be traveling to Italy in the future. Thank you all again.
