Ciao Roberto,

We were very satisfied with our tour with Francesca and Roberto. Francesca was very informative during our tours in Lucca and Pisa and was excellent as an interpreter during our visit with our family in Peschia. We wouldn’t have had as nice a time with them if she wouldn’t have been with us. Although my parents and one of my brothers had met them previously, my wife, my two brothers and their families, and I had never met them. It was a very special moment for us and my Italian relatives to meet and Francesca really made everyone feel very comfortable and did her best to keep up with the many conversations that were going on at the same time. We had a wonderful Italian cruise and Francesca and Roberto made that day one of the most memorable. We would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone travelling in Italy.

I have attached some pictures.

Grazie mille,

Ray

Hello Roberto,
We have arrived back to Montreal and often look at the photos & videos of our trip to the Amalfi coast & Florence and Pisa. The Amalfi drive with The Benvenuto 'Papa' was fantastic.
He told us about the history of the region and we loved every minute of our drive. We also had a wonderful driver who drove us from Livorno to Florence then Pisa and back. He had impeccable English and was very knowledgeable. Of all the drivers we had along our Med vacation, Benvenuto was by far the best.
If we are fortunate enough to return to Italy we will certainly use you again.
If you ever need info about Montreal and surrounding areas please let us know.
*We must be the only clients that were ever in SeptIsle.....as was father Benvenuto a long long time ago!!!!!
Best Wishes

My family and I chose Benvenuto Limos somewhat randomly when booking our most recent and first trip to Italy. We were very happy with our decision from our first contact with Giovanni (he actually called us in Canada), to numerous correspondence via email, to our punctual pick up in Naples for our tour of Sorrento-Positano-Pompeii.

Our guide/driver (Fulvio) was pleasant and very informative throughout the trip. He more than obliged us by taking photos whenever we asked and made a great recommendation for lunch....one that will be in our memory and on our taste buds forever.....La Tagliata Trattoria(fantastic food, service and view!!)

We would have no problems recommending this well run company to anyone interested in efficient, personalized and informative tours. We are not sure when we will get back to Italy, however, when we do decide, we will certainly be relying on Benvenuto Limos as an integral part of our stay.

Dear Giovanni: Hi from the United States. I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful time I had in Italy! And as far as my trip to San Donato Val di Comino, it was the best!!! THANK YOU so much for sending Umberto that day. He was the most courteous and professional person I have met in a long time. He was there at 9:00 am on the dot and was extremely interested in the story of my family. He walked all over the town with me, spoke to as many people as we could find, including a police officer, and did everything he could to help me all day long. He even walked through the cemetery with me trying to locate family names. He was a very informative man and was always pointing things out to me and explaining how or why things were done. He was absolutely the BEST!! This trip to the roots of my family could not have been done without you and your company. I thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart. I felt safe at all times and was treated with nothing but respect from Umberto. We had a great time together. Please extend my thanks to him again and I will always remember his kindness. He also made me laugh quite a bit that day. My only regret was that I forgot to take a picture of him when he dropped me off. He was a very important part of my trip. By the way, I had a blast in Italy and hopefully someday will be able to come back. I will definitely recommend your company to anyone I know coming there. Thanks again and please say hello to Umberto for me.

Ciao,

Judi

Dear Giovanni,
On behalf of our family of six travelers, we wish to thank you for the safe and most interesting journey provided by your driver, Alfonso in June of 2009. He met us promptly and professionally at the Naples airport, loaded our luggage and made sure we were all comfortable for the ride to Positano. He waited patiently for us as we toured Pompeii. He stopped along the way so that we could enjoy the Amalfi Coast and take pictures at scenic points. We highly recommend your company to any considering transfer service and we would most certainly use this service again if we are ever lucky enough to visit Italy again.
Many thanks,
Chris and Nancy Luedke and family

Thank you so much for the wonderful tour of Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast on Sunday, June 14, 2009. Your driver, Fulvio, was outstanding and exceeded our expectations. He was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. His English was perfect and he pointed out many things the passengers aboard the Royal Princess who took bus tours had not seen.
The ease with which this was arranged was exceptional and the cost was very competitive. We will certainly recommend your company for others visiting Italy. As a matter of fact, we may be returning to Venice and Florence in a few months and we plan to contact you when the trip is confirmed.
Again, Thanks for a wonderful tour.
Graham

Giovanni,
My family used your service for a tour along the Amalfi Coast on June 10th. I wanted to express to you what a wonderful time we all had. I also wanted to thank you for understanding when our group dropped from 10 to 8 people and you were so kind to let us ride in one vehicle. (My sister and her friend were injured in a Vespa accident.) We absolutely loved our driver, Fulvio!!!!!!!!!!! He was fantastic and made our experience even better with his warm, friendly personality and extensive knowledge of Italy and the Amalfi Coast. Our family group loves history, so we were enthralled by his stories of Italy’s history, culture, people, and food. It also meant a lot to my mother, since her parents and older brother were born in Southern Italy. Truly, and all in my family agree, Fulvio made our tour of the Amalfi the highlight of our two week trip to Italy!!!!!!! Please extend to him our gratitude and also thank you to you for your excellent service.

Sincerely,
Suzanne

Hi Giovanni,

Just wanted to let you know how pleased we were with the service your company provided for us.
Paolo met us at the airport and from that moment on everything went beautifully. We were happy that
we took him up on his suggestion that we do the day tour along the coast and to Pompeii. He arranged
for us to have lunch in Ravello, the restaurant he picked had the most incredible view of the coast. He
was very informative about everything he showed us and had a great sense of humor. We really enjoyed
our visit to Villa Cimbrone, again without his guidance we would not have seen it. Our visit to Italy was
more than we expected and made all the better by your excellent service. Please give our regards to Paolo,
and also to the driver who drove us to the Naples train station, unfortunately we can't remember his name.
He was very helpful getting us onto an earlier train. Once again, thank you and hopefully we will do it again
in the not too distant future.
Regards
Doug & Dee

We drove ourselves (family of 5) to Sorrento from Venice in a hire car and were then collected by Giovanni from Benvenuto and transferred to our Praiano apartment. Along the way, Giovanni provided insightful information about the area which we were very appreciative of. Driving on the Amalfi Coast is not for the faint hearted or for drivers unfamiliar with the roads. It will be far more relaxing if you leave it to the locals and the bus drivers. After four nights at Praiano, we were collected by Marco and driven to Pompeii where we conducted our own tour over two hours. Marco then drove us to our Rome apartment making several phone calls to ensure we would be met at the apartment. We really appreciated his assistance and it made life so easy not having to get on and off trains in Naples. The transfers were worth every cent.

This time (we have used your company while in Amalfi Coast before) we had Umberto as our driver/guide. He was EXCELLENT. Very nice, very informative and was willing to do anything we asked (changed schedule/times/towns up a bit). The lunch he suggested (La Tagliata) was amazing & the Pepe's family and home was adorable! We got the feeling that Umberto could tell that we had used not only your company before, but, had been to the area as well. In turn, he spent a bit more telling us about the smaller towns on the Amalfi coast and showed us a few other things we didn't see previously. Being a resident of the coast/towns coupled with his age & experience, he provided so much more detail and such a better time than some other simple guided tour.

We could not have had a better time! As always, we look forward to our next trip and you can be sure will will use your company again & again!

Ps... I have included a few photos. Please also pass them along to our driver, when you go to post them. Tell Umberto hi for us too!

We took our chance by choosing Benvenuto Limos when we were looking for private tour in Rome on google. When we received the reply to our enquiry from Mr. Giovanni, we had a strong feeling that we made a right decision. Our first Roman holidays turned out to be as wonderful as we hope it would be because of their perfect arrangement.
Their suggested tours were very organized, yet flexible. The car was comfortable and clean. All three drivers they sent were very presentable and entertaining. The tour guides they arranged for us at Florence and the Vatican City were pretty and very knowledgeable. We really enjoyed the churches and museums with their company. Most important of all, we saved a lot of time waiting in line because of their arrangement so that we saw much more during our short time in Rome and Florence.
We could not be more satisfied with the Benvenuto Limos and we highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for private tour in Italy. And when we visit Italy in future, we will for sure hire their services again.
Fred & Eddie

We have travelled and used the service of Benevenuto limos for the past three years. The drivers are from the local areas. They are professional and polite and can provide the answers to all our questions.

We will return again next summer and will be sure to call and confirm.

Thank you for making one of the toughest parts (travelling with kids and luggage) the most pleasurable parts of our journey.

Benvenuto’s services were exactly as described in their website. The drivers were on-time, professional and friendly. The cars were comfortable and luxurious. The guide they arranged for Pompeii was excellent. Alfonso made our day touring the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii delightful despite the heat and winding roads. It was incredible to have a driver with the ability to pass other cars on those roads! I’ve never been so happy to leave the driving to a real pro!
Nancy and Dennis

I wanted to thank you for a very easy and wonderfully informative transfer from Naples to Positano. Giovanni “Banana” was great! He gave us a lot of information on the way down about what we were seeing and even told us where to eat like a local!

Fulvio made our Amalfi Coast tour especially amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable and a great companion for the day. We enjoy his company immensely and were able to experience the Amalfi Cost though a locals perspective. He even took us to lunch at his favorite pizza place, which was delicious!

I already recommended your service to our friends who will be visiting in September. I will tell anyone who will listen, that you have a first class service with first class drivers, who are friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating.

Thanks for a great experience! We look forward to using your services on our next trip!

Susan & Mark

My experience with Benvenuto Limos was first class. This is the second time we have used your service. Yes, it is expensive especially on top of our already pricy cruise to the Mediterranean. The service we received was well worth it however. We have already recommended this service to friends who used it and were happy also. The car that was sent for us was brand new. Our driver wore a suit and looked very professional and he was also friendly and helpful. In addition he was a very careful driver. All these things are important to us.

I have no complaints at all with the service I received from Benvenuto Limos. I would not hesitate to use them again when I will be in the area. We plan to visit again soon as we think this is one of the most beautiful places in the world! Thanks again.

Linda Fryling and family

I just wanted to let you know that my family and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Amalfi Coast region.

We were fortunate to be accompanied by your chauffeur, Fulvio, who was extraordinarily knowledgable about the area as well as an excellent companion. He treated us like family.

This was an especially important trip for us - it was the first time my 80 year old parents have visited Italy, their home country, since they were small children.

I would like to thank you for making this journey so memorable for us.

Sincerely,

Linda

Dear Giovanni
Jean and I want to thank you for making our trip to Italy so great for us and for our children. They had not been to Italy before and really enjoyed it. We saw so much more with your drivers and guides than would have been possible otherwise.
We were all amazed at Patrizia. Her knowledge of Pompeii, Herculaneum, the Archaeological Museum, and Capodimonte gave us a very good understanding of the times and art. Thank her again from all of us.
Daniele in Rome was very good also. We saw as much as was possible in the time we had.
All of the drivers were good, but your Uncle Alfonso was special. He was so skilful on the Almafi Coast, in Naples and in Rome, and we never got lost. None of us will ever forget driving on the Amalfi Coast, with the turns, busses and motor bikes. We were happy to leave the driving to Alfonso. Give him our thanks.
Again, thank you.
Ciao,
Rick

Giovanni,

Without a doubt our tour of Positano, Sorrento and the Amalfi coast was the highlight of the time we spent in Italy on our cruise. Paolo was a delightful, warm, courteous, knowledgeable young man. My family hasn't stopped talking about our wonderful lunch at Trattoria La Tagliata. Thank you, thank you, thank, thank you. When we visit Italy in the future, you will be at the top of our list of contacts.
In the meantime, we have happily recommended your service to our friends.

Ciao for now!

So many travelers are taken advantage of and Giovanni Benvenuto and his drivers are so professional, reliable, informative and of course warm and fun!!

We had a most fantastic day on our Amalfi Tour with Saverio!! Actually, this is our second experience with the Benvenuto company. Seeing Saverio when we got off the ship was like seeing an old friend again!! He was even better and more fun and informative than our first experience with him. We had a delightful day, even though it rained on and off. I would not even think of coming to your region in Italy without having Benvenuto as our driver. It is actually silly to refer to Saverio, etc as simply a driver- he and the others are really so very much more! We could not have been happier and we had one of our best days of our entire trip in Amalfi!

Dear Giovanni and Staff,

We shared one the favorite days of our trip with Giuseppe and Fulvio as we weaved our way through the Amalfi coast. Thanks to Giuseppe for his care and concern for one of our car sick prone family members and his excellent driving that kept her comfortable around the mountain and coastal roads. They reserved space for us at a wonderful restaurant in Sorrento and shared interesting information about their home towns. The minivans were clean and comfortable and provided excellent transportation during a long day on the road. We will call on you again when we return to Italy for another holiday.

Warmest Regards from Florida,

Ivan
