About this tour
This eight-hour coastal loop departs Naples and threads through three distinctive Amalfi villages. You'll descend into Positano's stacked pastel neighbourhood, explore Amalfi's cathedral and waterfront, then climb to Ravello's clifftop villas and gardens. A small group (max eight) travels by Mercedes van with a local driver who provides regional context. Return to Naples as daylight fades. You set your own pace in each village—there's no rushing.
Highlights
- Positano's steep streets lined with galleries and family-run cafés
- Sant'Andrea Cathedral's Romanesque doors and interior mosaics
- Villa Rufolo gardens perched above dramatic limestone cliffs
- Curves and hairpins with Tyrrhenian Sea views throughout
- Mercedes van comfort; small enough for genuine back-and-forth chat
- Free time in all three stops—no forced group activities
What to expect
You'll start early from central Naples and wind downhill into Positano, a village that tumbles toward the water in tiers of coloured buildings. Wander at leisure, perhaps grab a gelato or browse independent shops. Next comes Amalfi town proper, busier and more working-class—the cathedral is worth stepping into if you buy a ticket. Then the van climbs again to Ravello, where the air cools and the view opens right out. Villa Rufolo is the main draw here, with manicured terraces and sea vistas that justify the modest entry fee. Your driver waits and chats; you explore as long as you'd like.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes with grip—villages have steep stone streets and steps. Lunch isn't included; eat in any of the three towns. Tickets to cathedral (€3) and Villa Rufolo (€8) are separate. A boat ride option exists but costs extra. Not suitable for wheelchair users. Small children in prams manage Ravello and Amalfi better than Positano's terrain.
