From Naples: Amalfi Coast Day Trip in Positano & Amalfi

About This Experience

This is a 9-hour coach tour from Naples that concentrates on two coast towns, Positano and Amalfi, with a ferry between them in summer. It is run by Tramvia (Beducci Travel Bus) with a host on board and a digital audioguide. There is no Sorrento stop. Departure is at 8:10 from Molo Beverello, with seven more bus stops around central Naples running to 8:55.

The route is about 1.5 hours by road to Positano, where the group arrives around 11:00 and has 3 hours of free time. Between April and October the group then crosses by ferry to Amalfi (about 30 minutes, subject to sea conditions), where you have around 2 hours before the coach back, which takes about 1.5 hours. From November to March the transfer between Positano and Amalfi is by bus instead.

The price is from $73 per person (checked October 2026), one of the four lowest prices among the 24 tours on this site. Entrance tickets and personal expenses are not included, and neither is a hotel pickup, because the tour collects at bus stops. Lunch is up to you, in either town.

It suits people who want long, unhurried free time rather than a guided walk, and who do not mind a larger coach. It is rated 4.6 from 3,136 GetYourGuide reviews. Lower-rated reviews describe crowds in both towns, a coach carrying 40 to 50 people, a disorganized wait to board the ferry and, once, a late pickup. A few wished for more time in Amalfi and less in Positano.
