Amalfi Coast Tour from Naples: Ravello, Amalfi, Positano

Three coastal towns in one day without driving yourself or catching a group bus.

A full-day private tour of the Amalfi Coast from Naples includes a professional English-speaking driver-guide, a luxury air-conditioned vehicle, and stops in Ravello (a medieval village 1,200 feet above the sea), Amalfi (home to the Cathedral of St. Andrew), and Positano (a clifftop resort town). The route takes eight hours and covers parking, highway tolls, fuel and insurance. Lunch and entry fees to churches and museums are not included, though the driver can suggest restaurants and rearrange timing if you want to eat. The itinerary can be reversed if you're starting from Sorrento, Amalfi or Salerno instead of Naples.

The experience

The driver meets you at your hotel, port or train station with a sign bearing your name, then drives you south along the coast toward Ravello. The drive takes about ninety minutes. Ravello sits on a cliff 1,200 feet above the sea, a rural medieval village where you'll have roughly an hour to walk the narrow streets, look at the views, and take photographs before heading back down to the van.

From Ravello, the drive to Amalfi takes thirty-five minutes. You'll have about an hour there to see the Cathedral of St. Andrew (the main landmark in the town center) and browse the shops, which tend to offer better prices than the tourist restaurants nearby. If you want lunch, tell the driver at the start of the day and he'll suggest a family-run place off the main drag and adjust the schedule so you have time to eat without rushing.

The final leg to Positano is a full hour along the panoramic coastal road. The driver will stop at a viewpoint or two along the way so you can photograph the coastline, then you'll have about fifty minutes in Positano itself: a pastel-colored town stacked down the cliffs to a small beach. The return to Naples takes the same route and arrives back at your starting point after eight hours total. The driver speaks English and handles all the navigation, parking and tolls. You just step out and explore each place at your own pace.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish and Italian.

How much time do I actually spend in each town on the Amalfi Coast tour?

Ravello gets about sixty minutes to walk the village and see the clifftop views; Amalfi gets about sixty minutes for the cathedral and shopping; Positano gets about fifty minutes to explore the town and beach area. The rest of the eight hours is driving between them.

What's included in the price and what do I need to pay for separately?

The tour includes the private vehicle, the English-speaking driver, parking, highway tolls, fuel and insurance. You pay separately for lunch (the driver can suggest restaurants), entry fees to any churches or museums you want to visit, and drinks. Gratuities are optional but appreciated.

Can the driver suggest a restaurant if I want to eat during the tour?

Yes. Tell the driver at the beginning of the tour if you want lunch, and he'll recommend a family-style restaurant that isn't aimed at tourists and adjust the schedule so you have time to eat without cutting short your time in the towns.

What if I'm staying in Sorrento or Salerno instead of Naples? Does the itinerary change?

If you're picked up from Sorrento, Amalfi or Salerno, the order of the three towns reverses to Ravello, Positano, then Amalfi, but the time spent in each place and the total duration stay the same at eight to nine hours.

Is the tour private, or will I be sharing the van with other travelers?

The tour is private by default. Just you, your party and the driver in a luxury air-conditioned van. It's also available as a shared tour if you want to split the cost with other travelers (maximum eight people per van).
