Amalfi Coast from Naples
There are few stretches of coastline as celebrated as the Amalfi, south of Naples. Since Antiquity the azure sea, cliff-hugging towns and dramatic cliffs between Positano and Salerno have attracted eager visitors while bewitching writers, artists and filmmakers.
If you’re staying in Naples, or docked there on a cruise ship, the Amalfi Coast is little more than an hour’s drive away, making it the perfect day trip. You can arrange to be picked up at the dock or from your hotel in a private chauffeured car which will whisk you away for a day of sights you’ll never forget.
And because it’s a private tour, you can spend your time wherever you wish, long luxurious hours in whichever town takes your fancy. Will it be Sorrento, with its stunning views and busy port? Or Ravello, with its stately villas and beautiful gardens? Or maybe popular Positano, with its colorful houses tumbling down the hillside to greet the sapphire waters? All along the way, little coves open up between the cliffs to reveal charming beaches, an inviting proposition in the warmer months.
If you’re staying in Rome, you can see the very best of the region with two overnight stays. Historic highlights, vibrant city life and breathtaking scenery are all on offer as you travel south out of the Eternal City and head for the earthy charms of Naples, fabled city of lovers and balladeers.
This area has long been a magnet for those seeking the good life. Back in Roman times the city of Pompeii was a bustling trading center, its wealth reflected in fine houses and rich decorative paintings. The eruption which sealed Pompeii in 79 AD offers us an extraordinary insight into daily life in the Roman Empire, and on a scale which surprises most first-time visitors.
And then it’s back to the good life, 21st century style, as you head for the beautiful Amalfi Coast to wind up a magical three day excursion.

Our private tour with Rosario to Sorrento and Amalfi Coast was so amazing. From the moment he picked us up at our hotel in Naples, my sister and I knew we were in for a perfect ride. He's so polite, opened the doors for us, very kind, and quite good looking. He drove us in this spotless clean Mercedes Benz car and am so happy all windows were clean because i was taking pictures at all angles all the time. He knows his trade--not only is he a good driver (hahaha, good maneuvers on those narrow, winding roads) he also spoke very good English. He gave us many important info relevant to our tour while driving (he could pass for a guide.) We never missed to stop at every important scenic spot for pictorials. He took many good shots of me and my sis with fascinating vistas as our background. He took us to Sorrento, spent some time there, then to the furniture store which i think was fabulous. We had lunch at Da Constantino's on a hill overlooking Positano---what a magnificent view, so epic and the food was really good. Spent time shopping in Positano, made an hour stop in Amalfi, then off to Ravello. The views of the four towns are all breathtaking. Should we make another trip to Amalfi again, we would definitely ask for Rosario, our driver/guide who didn't only show professionalism during the whole trip but also made his clients/tourists feel special. Rosario, you earned this high recommendation from us. You made our tour so memorable and we are so proud of you for doing an excellent job. By the way, where can we send the nice photos we took of you?

This tour was absolutely wonderful. Antonio was our driver and though we did not have an actual guide, per se, he was very knowledgeable and informative of the history at each of the locations we visited. He also provided us with an excellent lunch spot recommendation on the waterside in Amalfi. Overall, i cannot say enough about this tour and the wonderful driver we had.
