Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast TOUR
FROM NAPLES TO POSITANO, EXPLORE THE AMALFI COAST
Explore one of Italy’s most famous coastlines with our 8-day Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast Tour and take home long-lasting memories of breathtaking scenery, rich history dating back to Greek civilization, and the colorful culture of the Campania region.
The first two nights of the tour are in the bustling city of Naples where we delve into the exciting street food scene and eat in an historic pizzeria.
With a small group limited to just 12 guests, we gain access to intimate experiences, like a boutique winery perched on the cliff of the Amalfi Coast where we dine surrounded by fragrant lemon and olive trees.
From Naples to Positano, explore the Amalfi Coast in style and, unlike many tourists who only stop in Positano for a few hours, enjoy five consecutive nights in a charming boutique hotel with sea-view rooms.
Splurge on a private boat ride to Capri, with a chance to enter hidden coves and grottos, toast with a glass of Prosecco, and maybe jump for a refreshing swim in the blue water of the Mediterranean.
Meet a passionate local food expert on a foraging trek where we learn about sustainable food. Visit Sorrento, an organic mozzarella farm, the ruins of Pompei with a knowledgeable local guide, and sip wine at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius.
Let us worry about the challenging logistics of getting around busy roads and crazy traffic, as you relax and take in La Dolce Vita on this Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast Tour.
I can’t imagine doing this tour by ourselves. Driving in this part of Italy is truly a nightmare and our driver was so good at it considering that the logistics getting in and out of Positano were complicated to say the least. Every single day was filled with a surprise and the one thing that I will never forget was the view from our room.

Why a Tour of Naples, Positano & The Amalfi Coast with Meet Piemonte?
Embark on a journey of enchantment and indulge your senses in the captivating allure of Naples, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast. These iconic destinations in Italy offer a fusion of mesmerizing coastline landscapes, a unique culture, and delectable culinary flavors, making them a dream come true for travelers seeking an extraordinary dolce-vita experience.
The Unique Advantage of Staying in Positano at Night
While most tours only visit Positano for a few hours, with a group limited to only 12 guests, we can venture into the narrow streets and check into a boutique hotel with a handful of rooms. Staying five nights in Positano is a real luxurious treat as guests can experience the vibe of this town after dark when the crowds have left. Waking up in the morning and admiring the blue Mediterranean from your balcony is a dream come true. Walking at night in Positano as only a few lucky travelers get to do and watching the moonlight reflecting in the sea will be a lifelong memory.
The Freshest Food of the Amalfi Coast
From the freshest mouth-watering buffalo mozzarella to patiently risen pizza, the food of Naples and the Campania region is like no other. Seafood lovers will find their heaven, as well as vegetarians who can savor local produce, lemons, juicy tomatoes, fragrant basil, and more. With a fine dining experience included as well as homemade meals served on terraces overlooking the Amalfi Coast, the culinary experiences of our tour will be a revelation for your taste buds.
Wine Tastings on Mt. Vesuvius and on the Amalfi Coast
As you venture along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast, take a moment to savor the region’s world-class wines. The Campania region is home to some of Italy’s most renowned vineyards, nestled amidst the terraced hillsides overlooking the azure Mediterranean Sea or located at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius. From crisp whites like the Amalfi DOC to robust reds like Aglianico, each sip will reflect the rich soil composition of the region. One day we focus on the minerals and ash-like soil of the volcano that concentrate the flavor and we enjoy lunch on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius. One evening we sit on a terrace surrounded by vineyards on the Amalfi Coast and we learn how the combination of sun exposure and sea breeze create a unique microclimate from which grapes benefit.
