About this tour

A seven to eight-hour private tour along Italy's Amalfi Coast, connecting two iconic clifftside villages. You'll explore Positano's pastel-coloured architecture and steep coastal lanes, then venture to Sorrento's charming centro storico with its lemon-scented piazzas and sea views. Your driver handles navigation while you soak in the Mediterranean scenery. Ideal for those juggling limited time with a genuine taste for the region's character, without the coach-tour shuffle.

Highlights

  • Positano's vertiginous streets and colourful beach-facing homes
  • Sorrento's historic centre and clifftop panoramas
  • Air-conditioned private vehicle avoids crowded buses
  • Bottled water and onboard WiFi included
  • Flexible pacing to linger where you choose

What to expect

You'll be collected from Naples in a private car and driven south onto the Amalfi Coast. Positano hits first—a vertical village of stacked houses and galleries tumbling toward a pebbly shore. Expect narrow cobbled streets, boutiques, and cafés; the gradient is steep but manageable. After a couple of hours, you'll head to Sorrento, where the vibe is livelier. Here you'll wander the old town's networks of shops and restaurants, find viewpoints over the Bay of Naples, and absorb the slower Mediterranean rhythm. The route itself is spectacularly scenic; much of the drive is the point.

Good to know

Wear comfortable walking shoes—both towns require decent legwork on uneven terrain. Lunch isn't included, so budget accordingly or eat before you depart. Pushchairs work in Sorrento but become cumbersome in Positano's steeper alleys. The coastal road can be winding; if you're prone to car sickness, mention it beforehand.
