About this tour
A private eight-hour guided drive along Italy's Amalfi Coast, departing from Sorrento. Your English-speaking driver navigates the famous hairpin bends to three distinct stops: the cliffside village of Positano with its pastel-coloured houses stacked down the mountainside; Amalfi town nestled in a dramatic gorge; and Ravello perched high above the sea. You'll have time to wander each location and admire coastal views, with Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone's terraces worth your camera roll.

- Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone terraces with Mediterranean vistas
- Air-conditioned van with private English-speaking driver
- Hotel or port collection and return included
- All road tolls, parking and fuel covered
What to expect
Your driver picks you up in Sorrento and handles the winding coastal road—a journey worth experiencing from the passenger seat. Positano appears suddenly: a cascade of coloured buildings clinging to near-vertical cliffs. You'll have time to explore the main piazza and descend into narrow passages lined with boutiques and cafés. Amalfi follows, where the town unfolds around a cathedral square. The final stop is Ravello, sitting high on a ridge; the villas' gardens offer sweeping views back down the coast. Plan your own lunch in any of these villages (not included). Each location rewards slow wandering rather than rushing.
Good to know
Book lunch ahead in high season—restaurant tables fill fast. Comfortable walking shoes essential for village exploring. Bring sunscreen and water. The coastal drive itself is the attraction; you're not stopping for viewpoint coach photos. Infants can use specialised seats or travel in prams.
