About this tour
A full-day private drive along Italy's Amalfi Coast, hitting three essential stops across 8–9 hours. Start in Amalfi, the historic maritime republic where an 11th-century cathedral anchors narrow streets lined with shops and beach access. Descend by boat into the Emerald Grotto, where filtered light turns the underground chamber luminous green amid natural rock formations. Finish in Positano, the pastel-hued clifftop village famed since the 1960s for its artisan ceramics, wine bars, and coastal views. Private transport, English-speaking driver, and air conditioning throughout.

What to expect
You'll be picked up and driven in a climate-controlled vehicle to Amalfi, where you get at least an hour to wander the cathedral precinct, browse local shops, or swim. Next is a 30-minute boat trip into the Emerald Grotto—the turquoise-tinted water and rock textures are the draw here, so bring a camera. The boat ride is moderate activity; the grotto itself requires no hiking. You'll have lunch options (arranged on request or sourced locally). The final leg takes you to Positano, another hour or more of free time amid hillside streets, galleries, and beachfront cafés. The day is structured but unhurried—you're not rushed between sites.
