The Experience
The tour leaves your hotel and heads into Positano, where you board the Vespa with an experienced driver who knows every turn on the coast. After a safety briefing, you're moving through Praiano, a village built into the cliffs with views that open across the water. From there the route bends toward Furore, a narrow cove settlement where the Ponte dei Salti footbridge crosses the inlet, and then to the Grotta dello Smeraldo—a sea cave lit by emerald-green water that you can see from the road as the driver slows to let you take it in.
The ride continues to Conca dei Marini for a photo stop, then into Amalfi itself, where the Cathedral of Sant'Andrea rises above the harbor and the old streets narrow into the town center. The driver can stop long enough for a coffee and a pastry—sfogliatella or another local sweet—before heading on to Atrani, officially Italy's smallest town, and then climbing inland to Ravello, perched on the ridge above the coast. Ravello's main square is quiet; the streets are tight and steep. If you want to visit Villa Rufolo or Villa Cimbrone, you'll have time to walk through on your own. If the tour starts from Sorrento instead of Positano, it runs as far as Amalfi and returns; Ravello is too far inland to fit the same day, though you can message the operator before booking to arrange a custom route that includes it.
The Vespa is a two-seat bike, so the driver sits in front and you ride behind, holding on as the road curves. The helmet is sanitized before each tour. Insurance is included in the price. Lunch is not part of the tour, but there are restaurants and cafés in every stop. Entry to the Emerald Grotto costs extra, as do tickets to the cathedrals and the villas if you choose to go inside.

Can I ride the Vespa myself instead of having a driver?
If you have riding experience, you can contact the operator before booking to ask about availability for a self-guided option. Otherwise, an experienced driver handles the bike and you ride as a passenger.
What's the Grotta dello Smeraldo and do I go inside it?
The Grotta dello Smeraldo is a sea cave lit by emerald-green water on the coast between Furore and Conca dei Marini. You see it from the road as the driver slows down; entry to the cave itself costs extra and is not included in the tour.
Does the tour include lunch or time to eat?
Lunch is not included, but the tour stops in Amalfi and other villages where you can buy coffee, pastries and meals. The driver can recommend places and you have time to sit down if you want.
Which villages do I visit if I start from Sorrento instead of Positano?
A Sorrento departure runs to Amalfi and back, passing through the same coastal stops but not reaching Ravello because it is too far inland for the same day. You can message the operator before booking to arrange a custom route that includes Ravello if you prefer.
Is the tour suitable if I have a back injury or spinal condition?
The tour is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries because of the bike's motion and the winding roads. If you have questions about your specific condition, contact the operator by phone or WhatsApp at +39 3278103725 to discuss what might work.
What's included in the price and what costs extra?
The tour includes the Vespa, a sanitized helmet, the experienced driver, insurance, hotel pickup and a guide in English, Spanish or Italian. Entry to the Emerald Grotto (around €10), cathedral tickets (around €4) and visits to Villa Rufolo or Villa Cimbrone are not included. Lunch and tips are also separate.
