FAQ

What should I wear for this tour?

We suggest that you wear comfortable walking shoes as there is quite a bit of walking involved on uneven surfaces.

What happens if our cruise ship is unable to dock at the originally designated port?

If the cruise ship doesn't dock due to any circumstance out of your control, you will not be charged and we will try to re-schedule your service according to availability. If your cruise ship docks in a different port, for example Naples Port instead of Sorrento Port, we will change the pick up location, however there will be a fee associated with the change of port.

Is this tour accessible for people with limited walking abilities?

The itinerary can certainly be customised according to your needs, but please note that some areas may not be accessible with a stroller/wheelchair or for people with limited walking abilities.

What type of vehicle will be used for our tour?

We provide services in luxury Mercedes and Volkswagen sedans, minivans or minibuses (depending on availability). For parties of 1-3 guests we normally use a sedan. For parties of 4-8 guests we use minivans. And for parties larger than 8 guests we either use multiple minivans or a minibus (depending upon availability).

Do you offer a discount for booking multiple cruise port tours with your company?

Yes, we do offer a discount when booking multiple private full day Cruise Port tours from different ports, booked under the same name and cruise ship itinerary with the same departure date. The discount is automatically applied at checkout when booking two or more cruise port tours from different ports with our company. The discount is as follows: 30€ off each tour when booking 2 tours from different cruise ports, 40€ off each tour when booking 3 tours from different cruise port tours, 50€ off each tour when booking 4 tours from different cruise port tours. The multi-tour discount is not combinable with any other discounts or offers.

What if my cruise ship cannot dock?
