About this tour
A six-hour private coastal tour tracing the Amalfi's most celebrated villages with your own driver and local guide. Start in Positano, where pastel-hued houses cascade toward the sea, then venture through Amalfi's ancient streets before ascending to Ravello's clifftop villas. You'll navigate the famous serpentine coastal road, pass through groves of lemon and olive trees, and stop at Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone for expansive views across the Tyrrhenian Sea.

What to expect
You'll spend the morning and early afternoon moving between three villages, each requiring short walks through narrow streets and up stepped lanes. Positano is compact but steep; allow time to wander its boutiques and waterfront. Ravello sits 365 metres above sea level, reached by a winding climb; the villas demand 30–45 minutes of exploration each. The drive itself is the spectacle—tight switchbacks demand attentive driving but reward with constant coastal panoramas. Expect stops for photos and local insight rather than a rigid itinerary.
Good to know
The route involves significant elevation gain and narrow staircases, especially in Positano and Ravello. Wear comfortable walking shoes with grip. The coastal road can feel intense if you're prone to motion sickness. Bottled water is provided; bring sun protection and a light layer for Ravello's altitude.
