sondi 14 Posted September 11, 2007 #2 Share Posted September 11, 2007 We used Benvenuto Limos in Naples a couple of years ago and have booked with them again for our Florence and found them to be be excellent. We loved the days that we had booked with them. Their website is http://www.benvenutolimos.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy P. Posted September 11, 2007 #3 Share Posted September 11, 2007 With Benvenuto Limos, did they ask for a deposit on line and then payment upon completion of tour? Did they also pick you up from the port in Livorno and then back to the port again at the end of the tour? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eh2zed Posted September 11, 2007 #4 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Definitely look at Ekol Travel for Kusadasi. Amazing prices and completely private tours less than ship cattle calls www.ekoltravel.com Nur was our online agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maratfun Posted September 11, 2007 #5 Share Posted September 11, 2007 During our stop in Kusadasi in August we used Mesut Yilmaz. He is a certified guide (as oppose to a cab driver), very knowledgeable and a total pro. We felt in love with Turkey or Mesut's version of Turkey. http://www.mesutyilmaz.org http://www.ephesusprivate.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronjj66611 Posted September 11, 2007 #6 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I would have to second Ekol travel. We just got back from our trip two weeks ago and used Ekol in Istanbul and agian in Kussadasi. They were great! You can read my review of Med Guides that I have recently posted.

alinehu Posted September 11, 2007 #7 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Benvenuto is excellent used them 2 times. They ask for your credit card number but they dont charge for anything until the day of the tour.Yes they pick you and drop you off at the port. Very profesional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sondi 14 Posted September 11, 2007 #8 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi Katy P, We didn't pay any deposit to Benvenuto. I just faxed Giovanni a credit card to hold the reservation and then they take payment at the end of the tour. They will take cash, traveller's cheques, and/or a cheque. I don't believe that they take credit cards. We've always paid by traveller's cheques. The driver will pick you up at the ship when you disembark and drop you off at the same place at the end of the day. Hope this helps.

mr.fritz Posted September 12, 2007 #9 Share Posted September 12, 2007 When in the port of Naples, I have used Amalfi Coast Drivers, I believe the owner Carmine, was formerly with Benvenuto. Their services are excellent and I highly recommend them email : info@amalficoastdrivers.com They did not require a deposit, payment is made in euros at the end of the day. Carmine has driven for us and we have given his name to friends, they too were thrilled with the prompt, polite and fun driver they had for the day. It seems that all of drivers speak excellent english and really enjoy what they do. Enjoy your trip it sounds like you will be seeing some of the best cities along the coast.
