Private Day Trip from Naples

Naples to Positano, Amalfi, Ravello & Cetara: 10-Hour Private Tour

Four iconic coastal destinations, one seamless private journey along the Amalfi Coast.


This Naples to Amalfi Coast private tour covers four distinct stops, each with its own character, from the cliffside glamour of Positano to the anchovy-rich fishing village of Cetara. The itinerary is designed to be flexible, allowing you to explore each destination at a pace that suits you. A private chauffeur-driven vehicle handles the coastal driving, estimated at around six hours of road time, so you can focus entirely on the scenery and experience.

The Amalfi Coast is a UNESCO-listed stretch of coastline in the Campania region of southern Italy. Its dramatic terrain, with mountains dropping sharply into the Tyrrhenian Sea, makes every curve of the road a visual event. Traffic conditions can vary, but the coastal views more than compensate for any delays along the route.

Each stop on this tour has been selected to offer a different perspective on the region. Positano draws visitors with its fashion boutiques and beach culture, while Amalfi presents a medieval cathedral and layered history. Ravello sits elevated above the coast, offering quieter gardens and panoramic outlooks. Cetara, the final stop, is one of the least commercialized villages on the coast and is best known for its anchovy production.

Because this is a private tour departing from Naples, the experience is entirely your own. There are no shared coaches or fixed group schedules. The route follows the SS163 Amalfitana, one of the most celebrated coastal roads in Europe, with stops timed to give you meaningful time in each location.

Tour Highlights

Visit four distinct Amalfi Coast destinations in a single private day trip from Naples.

Explore the Amalfi Cathedral at Piazza del Duomo and the adjacent Cloister of Paradise.

Descend to Spiaggia Grande in Positano for a moment of sun and clear Mediterranean water.

Walk the gardens of Villa Rufolo in Ravello and take in the view from the Terrace of the Infinity.

Discover the working harbor and anchovy heritage of Cetara, one of the coast's most authentic villages.

Travel in comfort with a private chauffeur-driven vehicle throughout the full 10-hour experience.

End your day with a seaside meal at a local trattoria featuring fresh seafood and regional dishes.

Itinerary Overview

1
Positano

Begin in Positano, wandering through the narrow, winding streets lined with colorful cliffside houses and local boutiques selling artisanal goods, fashion, and ceramics. Make your way down to Spiaggia Grande for a relaxed moment by the sea, then climb to Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta to see its distinctive dome and decorated interior. A gelato or espresso at a seafront cafe rounds out the visit nicely.

2
Amalfi

In Amalfi town, the starting point is Piazza del Duomo, where the Cathedral of Sant'Andrea stands as one of the finest examples of Arab-Norman architecture in southern Italy. Step inside to view the ornate interior, then pass through to the Cloister of Paradise, a peaceful courtyard with slender double columns and marble sarcophagi. The surrounding streets offer a good selection of local ceramics and limoncello shops for browsing.

3
Ravello

Ravello sits high above the coast and is reached by a short drive up from Amalfi. The visit centers on Piazza Duomo and the grounds of Villa Rufolo, a medieval estate known for its terraced gardens and sweeping coastal views. The Terrace of the Infinity offers one of the most photographed perspectives on the entire Amalfi Coast.

4
Cetara

Cetara is the final stop, a small fishing village that retains much of its traditional character. Begin at the harbor to observe the local fishing activity and the brightly painted boats, then explore the pastel-colored streets and artisan shops. The village is celebrated for its anchovy production, and tasting or purchasing a jar of the local colatura di alici (anchovy sauce) is a worthwhile experience before heading back to Naples.
