What To Expect

From Rome, your day trip starts with a high-speed train trip to Naples, where you’ll meet your driver and transfer to a minivan for the drive to Positano. Journey along the Amalfi Coast Road, a winding stretch of road that provides panoramic views of the sparkling Mediterranean Sea. Pass by lemon groves and candy-colored villas while listening to narration about the area.

When you arrive in Positano, you have free time to wander around the village independently. Known as the ‘Jewel of the Amalfi Coast,’ this quintessential Italian Mediterranean village sits against the mountainside, boasting a spectacular location on the rocky shoreline. Perhaps take a walk along narrow lanes lined with shops, relax on the pebble beach, go swimming or enjoy a bite to eat or drink at a café.

Return to the minivan to continue your day trip to your second village, Amalfi, home to charming architecture and historical sights like Amalfi Cathedral, a 9th-century church in the main square. You have more free time here to explore on your own. Then make the drive back to Naples for the return train ride to Rome, where your day trip ends.

Traveler Tips


I would strongly recommend that if you are prone to motion sickness to be prepared with Dramamine, as the hills are narrow and steep and the bus definitely rocks you around a lot.

Rosella was fantastic!...
Tarsilla_W, Sep 2022
Rosella was fantastic! The whole trip was great. She also was very helpful to us in navigating transportation, which we needed.
Sunshine, sea and shopping!
Karen_G, Sep 2022
Good schedule. Only trip I could find to give you a good amount of time in Positano. Ferry is much more fun than doing the trip by bus. Just enough info from guide to get you on your way.
Good Tour but beware boat rides not bus
Jenny_B, Aug 2022
Tour described in Victoria site as minivan from Naples. Train in fact to Salerno and then a series of ferries between the coastal towns of Amalfi and Positano. Tour guide was really good. Good Tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
Dear Jenny, thanks for reserving an 'Amalfi Coast Small-Group Day Trip from Rome Including Positano' with us through Viator and for specifying transport organization during your tour! We appreciate your feedback! As a matter of fact, a train ride or a minivan are both options; nevertheless, ever since a municipal order in Amalfi was issued last month prohibiting or limiting access to touristic buses, we've been more preferably resorting to a direct train to Salerno. From there, ferries are used to move from one location to the next along the coast, which offers very nice views. The website description reflects just that now. That said, we're glad you enjoyed the experience as well as the company of your tour leader! Best regards, Gray Line Rome Reviews Team
Breathtaking experience

Our tour was wonderful! Our tour guide Alessandro was great, very patient!!! Overall, great experience!!!!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be able to afford living in a place like this?
Geoffrey_H, Aug 2022
Great tour! We used mostly to shop for our daughters and our yet-to-be-born granddaughter. Picked up some wonderful lemon candy, though we didn’t do the lemon ice. Lots of wonderful shops and plenty of good food. Our guide was very accommodating to such old folks as ourselves…
Spectacular!
Maria_S, Aug 2022
Absolutely amazing tour! Strongly recommend as day trip from Rome at least u spend the full day on the Amalfi coasts and experience the incredible views. The boat rides were spectacular as we truly embraced the Amalfitana coast! Alessandro was excellent!
Worth the trip!
Ann_B, Jul 2022
We had a delightful day sailing along the coast and stopping at Amalfi and Positano. Our guide gave us just enough information to help us get the most of our time. We loved swimming in the Mediterranean.
Alexander was awesome!!!...
Kim_D, Jul 2022
Alexander was awesome!!! He had fabulous recommendations as to where the best spots to eat were @ each stop. The "fish-n-chips" spot in Amalfi was AMAZING!!!!!
I really enjoyed walking...
Herrica_T, Jul 2022
I really enjoyed walking around Amalfi coast with all the limoncello drink/snack options. The weather was amazing and the views. I prefer Positano because of the access to the water and less rocks.
Wish we could ride the train first class. 2-3 days trip would be nice.
Kathleen_F, Jul 2022
The views when on the ferry where breathtaking! Amalfi and Positano, 2 hours stay in each town. Beautiful, busy and alive! Wish there was a 2-3 days stay, so we can enjoy the beach and thoroughly visit. All in all, still a very fun day trip. Alessandro, the guide, was very nice. Mind you, the time in both towns is by yourself. The guide is there to facilitate, transportation, train, make sure everybody is on board, and to give suggestions of what to day when in those towns.
THE BEST TRIP
Ryan_E, Jun 2022
Best trip I have ever done. Amazing views that will take your breath away! Our host Rossella was AMAZING from start to finish, she’s also hilarious. Literally couldn’t recommend this trip enough!!!
Failure to communicate
Frances_T, Jun 2022
We arrived at the meeting location well before the 730 am meeting time. Booking confirmation said to use what’s app for emergencies, so when no one showed to meet us, I checked it only to find they moved the meet up time to 645 am! So we and another couple missed the tour. Why on earth we weren’t emailed is beyond me. We got a refund but spent $70 going to and from the meet op location. What a waste! Terrible and won’t use again.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Dear guest, we are sorry for the inconvenience! Let us conduct a closer scrutiny because a change of meeting time doesn't occur often and we apologize if it had an impact on your departure. We're happy though that your issue was handled by the CS, as we understand, and you got a full refund already. Best regards, Gray Line Rome Feedbacks Team
Positano crowds! Crazy...

Positano crowds! Crazy narrow roads! Enjoyed the train ride and our guide Alessandro. Amalfi was a lot of fun, too.
