Naples: Amalfi Coast Private Tour Sorrento, Positano & Ravello

Your own driver, eight hours, four coastal towns

You get eight hours with a private driver covering the Amalfi Coast's four main towns — Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello — with the flexibility to spend as much time as you want in each. Port pickup and return are included, and the company guarantees you make it back to your ship on time. The only constraint is that Ravello and Amalfi involve significant stair climbing due to their hillside layout.

The Experience

The road hugs the cliff so close you can see the water change color as you drop down toward each village. This is a private tour from Naples Port, which means no fixed schedule, no group waiting while you linger over coffee in a pastel-painted square, no rushing back to the bus. You get a driver and a car for the full eight hours, and you decide where to stop and how long to stay. Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, Ravello — you hit all four, or you skip one and spend the afternoon in another. The driver knows the road and speaks minimal English, but that is not the point. The point is the road itself.

Sorrento sits high enough that you see the whole coast spread below it, the kind of view that made it a resort in Roman times and keeps it that way now. Positano is the one with the pastel houses stacked down the mountainside like a painting someone forgot to finish — the parish church sits in the middle, and the shops and beaches fill in the gaps. Praiano is smaller, quieter, the place where the sun sets latest along this stretch. Then comes the Emerald Grotto in Conca dei Marini, where the water glows green, and the Fiord in Furore, which is the only fiord in Italy and sits between houses painted with wild decorations. Amalfi itself is all white stone and narrow lanes, the kind of place that looks the same in every photograph because it is genuinely that photogenic. Ravello sits higher than the rest, with villas and gardens that drop away toward the sea, but getting there means stairs — a lot of them, and the driver will drop you as close as the pedestrian area allows.

Port pickup is included, and the company guarantees you get back in time for your ship. If your ship has left, they arrange transport to the next port. If your ship is delayed and you cannot go, you get your money back. The car is air-conditioned, wheelchair-accessible vehicles are available, and specialized infant seats come with the booking. One thing to know: depending on which villages you enter, there are city access taxes that are not in the tour price — 60 euros for Positano, 60 for Amalfi, 15 for Ravello — and those only apply if your group is nine people or more, which it is not on a private tour. So you are clear there. Just plan for the stairs in Ravello and Amalfi, and bring comfortable shoes for the lanes.
