My day driving the Amalfi coast was the best experience I've ever had in Europe. Our lunch looking over the sea was spectacular and worth the price. Two tips. Don't rent a manual if you are not comfortable driving such a car. Secondly drive East to West. We drove from Naples and began in Salerno going to Sorrento before returning to our cruise ship. You hug the wall not the sea. Unforgetable.

Ignore the "dont drive" i hired a Fiat 500 last week for 4 days. The driving was UNBELIEVABLE the sights were breathtaking. We found parking simple as well so overall i highly recommend you drive. We stayed in Sorrento, the drive to Amalfi was around 1 hour 45 mins. Public transport is to be avoided!! personally because the buses were over crowded & people push to get on the buses.

Great video and tips. First time visiting the Amalfi Coast we stayed in Salerno. We were there for my cousin's wedding. Another cousin drove us down to the Amafi Coast, what a thrilling and scary drive, but what beautiful views. I have every respect for the bus drivers that have to drive that tight and winding road. One of the most beautiful places on Earth. Keep up the good work.

My don’t for the Amalfi coast is have to go to the hospital. I had a very severe allergic reaction while there and it was difficult getting to the nearest hospital due to the small winding coastal road and heavy traffic. But then again, it’s a beautiful place to have to visit the hospital and the doctors are great!

I was in Amalfi a couple of months back, and my goodness, rarely do I want to return to a destination, because I always want to experience something new, but the Amalfi Coast is somewhere I would 100% return to. My girlfriend and I spent 3 days in Naples, and 2 down by the coast, and we were disappointed by how filthy and dangerous Naples felt, amd how rude the locals were. But when we got down to the Amalfi Coast, we were starstruck. We stayed in Maiori, just 2 towns away, and it was much cheaper, much quieter, and just as beautiful as the actual Amalfi Coast. We spent a day down in Amalfi-Amalfi, and it is exactly what we expected our Naples trip to be. I cannot wait to return, but in the future, I think we will skip the city of Naples, and just get the train straight down to the coast.

Thanks for the great video Walter. My tipps for the Amalfi Coast: If you book way ahead, I would definitely stay in Amalfi, and not only visit on a day trip. Before and after the many day visitors arrive and leave, its much more peaceful and relaxed. Yes, some restaurants are very touristy, but not all of them, and I had one of the best meals of many trips to Italy, in a simple Trattoria in Amalfi. Fresh saisonal products cooked by "mama", at very reasonable prices. Dont self-drive. Use the boat as much as possible. From the boat, you get great views of the coast, and its such a nice way to travel (and you can avoid the "puke buses" ;-)). Compare prices before shopping or going into a restaurant. Some prices are ridiculous, some are very reasonable and good value for money. Definitely visit Pompeij. I would do a day trip from Napoli or Sorrento. Also, in addition to stay on the Amalfi coast for 2-3 nights, I would also stay in Sorrento for 2 nights, and in Napoli for 3-4 nights. Napoli is chaotic, but its great fun, has plenty of attractions and fantastic food. Try to go in May or September, when its a little less busy, and not as hot.If you just want a beach holiday, there are better destinations than the Amalfi coast.

Then we went to Naples and was much harder, but much better practice.

Don’t stay in any of the small touristy towns like Positano or Amalfi, unless you’re on a honeymoon and willing to feel ripped off. Otherwise stay in Naples, Sorrento, or Salerno, and just bus or boat in for the day. They’re much more affordable, there are actual Italians that live there, unlike the small touristy towns on the Amalfi Coast. You’ll pay easily 15€ for a pizza in Positano when it’ll be 3€ in Naples and much better.

I get that people have kids in school and all that but my parents used to pull us out of school to travel!! I was always glad that I seemed to live in Italy and England from January to april. Yes, the Italians are so wonderful when you try to speak some Italian. Also if you have studied Italian don't be surprised if it's hard to understand the folks in that area.

I did the walk in Sentiero degli dei, it's a must, but you can skip sleeping in Positano or Ravello if you have a budget (view and sunset were outstanding tbh, but it was +300 EUR/night). The small beach is meh. Food, taxis are expensive. You hear a lot of english. If you're on a Airbnb it's hard to do shopping. If I should do again, I would stay in a budget hôtel in Agerola to start in early morning the walk Sentiero degli dei (path of gods) towards Positano. I had a diner expérience in a farm with local farmer, a couple of two female us students and two germans, it was the best night of my trip.

If you find it in San Lorenzo, you will also enjoy the breathtaking view.

I drove north along the inside, not the outside, of the Amalfi Coast highway in a 9 person manual transmission passenger van with a group of UW Rome Studies students and professor in June 1986! Everyone was so grateful because the professor was a terrible driver and I was really good at 21! It took nine hours to drive from Salerno to Ravello! I remember we were caught on a hairpin turn to the right by a large tour bus and I wrote my name on the side of the bus we were so close! In one small town a group of locals physically picked up a tiny car parked too far out in the street and put it on the sidewalk to help clear the traffic jam! When we arrived at our beautiful hotel at the north end of Ravello and at the top of the hill, I was shaking and exhausted. When the host's son heard how well I'd done, he offered to let me drive his Ferrari or Lamborgini around the parking lot but I couldn't get the clutch right after the passenger van. That evening, I had champagne and wine with dinner for the first time and when we left in the morning I was driving. The only problem is that I think the alcohol was still in my system and I had to stop driving within 20 minutes for safety! The professor insisted on driving the rest of the trip back to Rome. For some reason, the professor didn't even offer to have me drive on a northern trip to Tuscany and we all suffered his horrible shifting and steering. What a memory! In my last trip to the Amalfi Coast in 2017 with my daughter, we stayed in Naples and took the ferries back and forth for two days. It was much easier and cheaper!

That's kind of hard to answer without knowing where you're going on your trip. Naples is the furthest south major airport. So if you want to visit Puglia, Basilicata, Calabria, and maybe even Abruzzo, then Naples is your best bet. Milan gives you the easiest access to Piedmont, Liguria, and Lombardy. Rome gets you close to Tuscany, Laiza, Abruzzo, and Umbria. Now, you choose where you're going and choose one of those airports.

Thinking it might be best just to stay in one location, like Positano, and hire a guide to take us on day trips?

How far in advance should you try to book dinner reservations? We are heading there in mid-September for our honeymoon and I’m wondering if calling day of is appropriate or should I try to book before we leave? Thanks so much for the insight!

driving the coast is challenging , prices are not cheap , stay in naples or somewhere else, then day trip to amalfi coast , ferry from sorrento > positano doesnt go at night only day

I am going to the Amalfi coast in September and after seeing more videos like this, I'm contemplating hiring a driver for the day instead of taking the bus. Does anyone have any advice on how to go about hiring one?

If you’ve ever driven on Highway 1 down the California coast through Big Sur, then you can probably drive on the Almafi coast. Two of the most beautiful coastlines in the world and two of the most treacherous to drive. Personally not for me.

Highway 1 is pretty big and open though, not as narrow as the amalfi coast.

Just spent 2 months in southern Italy. My advice is to skip the coast and head to capri or taormina instead.

Best thing to do is rent a scooter in Sorrento and ride it all throughout the Amalfi Coast. Don't pass up a gas station because it could be miles before the next one. Another way is catch the boat/ferry to each towns and Capri and to Naples for pizza
