Amalfi Coast tour from Naples: Positano, Amalfi & your choice

The Amalfi Drive unfolds one stop at a time, with hours to wander each village instead of rushing through.

A small-group guided tour of the Amalfi Coast departing from Naples, visiting Positano and Amalfi with your choice of Sorrento or Ravello as a final stop. The tour runs nine hours with a professional English-, Spanish- or Italian-speaking guide, hotel or meeting-point pickup, and free time to explore each village at your own pace. Maximum group size is eight travelers, and a boat option is available on two of the four itinerary combinations.

The experience

You're picked up from your Naples accommodation or a designated meeting point and driven south along the Sorrentine Peninsula toward the coast. The route itself is the draw here. The Amalfi Drive is considered one of the world's most beautiful coastal roads, and the van climbs and winds through dramatic cliffs that drop straight to the Mediterranean. Your guide narrates the landscape and the history as you go, but there's no rushing: the morning is built around two stops where you have real time to move around.

Positano comes first, and it's the village most people recognize from postcards: pastel houses stacked vertically down to the water, narrow alleys, boutiques selling local fashion. You get free time here to walk, photograph, sit at a café, or shop. The stop is long enough that you're not watching the clock. Before you descend into the village, the driver stops at the Madonnina viewpoint, the highest overlook of Positano, where you can see the whole vertical sweep of it at once. From there, Amalfi is a short drive along the coast, and you'll have time to explore its historic center, the Cathedral of Saint Andrew with its golden mosaics, or simply sit by the water with a coffee.

Your final destination depends on which option you've chosen at checkout. Sorrento sits on the Bay of Naples with lemon-scented streets and a different feel: more bustling, more of a working town. Ravello is the opposite: perched high in the hills above the coast, quiet, known for elegant villas and gardens that seem to float between the sky and the sea. The drive up to Ravello takes you through olive groves and vineyards, a complete shift from the coastal road. The van holds eight people maximum, which means the experience stays intimate and the driver can adapt the pace to the group. Pickup is included, and the guide speaks English, Spanish or Italian depending on the group.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish and Italian.

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (4 to 12 years); Infant (under 4): free.

Can I choose between Sorrento and Ravello, or is that decided when I book?

You choose at checkout which one you want as your final stop. Sorrento is the vibrant seaside town with lemon groves and artisan shops. Ravello is the hilltop retreat with gardens and views. Both are included in the tour price, so the choice is yours alone.

How much free time do I actually get in Positano and Amalfi?

The itinerary is built around free exploration at both stops, so you're not herded through on a tight schedule. You have time to walk the alleys, eat, shop, or simply sit and watch the water. The pace is yours.

Is there a boat tour included, or is that extra?

A boat option is available on two of the four itinerary options: Amalfi-Positano-Ravello with boat, and Amalfi-Positano-Sorrento with boat. If you choose one of those options, the boat tour is included. If you pick the other two combinations, it's not part of the package.

What's the Madonnina viewpoint, and why do we stop there?

The Madonnina is the highest panoramic overlook of Positano, where the entire village opens up beneath you in its full vertical sweep. It's the single most photographed vantage point on the coast, and the stop is built in so you can capture that view before you descend into the village itself.

Do I need to be fit or athletic for this tour?

The tour is suitable for all physical fitness levels. You're traveling by van along the coast and through villages, with free time to explore at your own pace. There's no hiking or strenuous walking required.
