Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast TOUR
The Ultimate TOUR OF Italy to THE CAMPANIA REGION
Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast Tour is an 8-day, small-group tour of Italy filled with breathtaking scenery, rich history, and personalized service, in the Campania region.
From the bustling city of Naples and its exciting street food scene, we travel in style to one of the world’s most stunning coastlines visiting towns like Amalfi and Sorrento. Unlike many tourists that only stop in Positano for a few hours, we stay there for five consecutive nights in a charming boutique hotel with sea-view rooms.
With an intimate group of just 12 guests, we gain access to experiences where large groups could not go, like a boutique winery perched on the cliff of the Amalfi coast where we dine surrounded by fragrant lemon and olive trees.
One day we splurge on a private boat ride to Capri, with a chance to explore hidden coves and grottos, toast with a glass of Prosecco, and maybe jump for a refreshing swim in the blue water of the Mediterranean.
We meet passionate local people on the foraging trekking where we learn about sustainable food. Expert local guides take us by hand to the ruins of Pompei, at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius, and to the perfectly-preserved Greek temples of Paestum.
Let us worry about the challenging logistics in this ultimate tour of Italy to the Campania region as you relax and take in the beauty of our 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.

Day 1 – Welcome to Naples, Positano and The Amalfi Coast Tour
Meals included: dinner
Arrive on your own to Naples’ airport and jump on one of the inexpensive white taxis for a short ride (20 minutes) to the city center.
Your home for the next 2 nights is in an elegant 4-star hotel, an oasis of peace, steps away from Naples’s major attractions.
Late afternoon, join your Tour Manager for a first walk through the little lanes of one of the storied neighborhoods. We end in an historic wood-fired oven of the city where we celebrate with delicious pizza the beginning of our tour .
Day 2 – The vibrant Food Market and Street Food scene of Naples
Meals included: breakfast and food tour (light lunch)
This morning follow our local guide for an introduction to the folk traditions and to the flourishing art scene that makes Naples a city like no other in Italy.
Our destinations are the vibrant Spanish Quarters and a local food market to sample street food as locals do. We visit a fish stall where deep fried seafood is served in the typical cone-shaped cuoppo. Then we are off to try crunchy taralli, as well as a traditional preparation with escarole, stuffed pastries and the classic espresso coffee.
This afternoon is yours to explore the buzzing capital of the Mediterranean at your own pace. Maybe you can join an evocative tour of the underground tunnels or visit the Royal Palace (not included). You can also decide to rest a bit in your hotel room before going out again tonight and try one of the cozy restaurants suggested by the tour manager.
Day 3 – Marvel at the Ruins of Pompeii and sip the Wines of Mt. Vesuvius
Meals included: breakfast and lunch
After breakfast we load the luggage on a small private bus, and our Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast Tour arrives at the foot of Mt. Vesuvius.
Take a step back in time with a knowledgeable and expert local guide and discover the archaeological site of Pompei, a former Roman city buried by volcanic ash after the devastating eruption of 79 A.D. Walk through the ruins of villas decorated with frescoes and mosaics as you learn how Romans used to live before the dramatic event that killed thousands of people.
Today’s lunch is served in a winery located on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius, whose rich soil full of minerals is key in the production of local traditional wines such as Aglianico, Pedirosso and Lacryma Christi.
Later, drive along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast to the charming village of Positano that has inspired generations of celebrities and artists. From your exclusive sea-view room take in the beauty and admire the maze of steep stairs and alleyways below.
Tonight, dinner is on your own so you can enjoy at your own pace one of the seafood restaurants near the hotel.
Day 4 – Foraging Trekking and Cooking Class near Amalfi
Meals included: breakfast and lunch
Late morning, meet a food expert for an informative foraging trekking through private gardens, lemon orchards and rustic countryside homes reachable only on foot.
We harvest aromatic herbs, fresh basil and some seasonal vegetables before reaching a covered terrace with 180° panoramic views over the Amalfi Coast. Here, we cook some traditional recipes with selected ingredients coming from local and sustainable food purveyors.
Enjoy your al-fresco lunch surrounded by incredible views that will conquer your senses.
This afternoon we keep driving along the coast spotting private villas, colorful bougainvillea and rock formations, all the way to the town of Amalfi.
Indulge in a tasting of locally-made limoncello and enjoy some shopping time in the narrow streets and piazzas lined up with paper shops, cafes, souvenirs and more.
Dinner is on your own in Amalfi before driving back to Positano.
Day 5 – Let’s splurge on a Private Boat ride to Capri
Meals included: breakfast
Many tourists go to Capri but very few get to do it by private boat *. Meet your captain in Positano and board our 12-passenger boat: you can decide if you want to lay on the bow under the sun or if you prefer to sit in the shade of the back. Either way, enjoy the jaw-dropping views of hidden inlets along the Amalfi coastline. Later, we reach the southern coast of the island of Capri with its numerous colorful grottos and evocative rock formations.
We sail to the iconic Faraglioni and you’ll get a chance to swim in a quiet bay, away from crowds. Towels and a refreshing glass of Prosecco are provided!
After docking in Capri, follow your tour manager in the upper town for an introductory walk and spend your free time at your own leisure: maybe lunch in one of the exclusive restaurants or a hike to the remains of Villa Jovis, once the favorite spot of Roman Emperor Tiberius.
You will be enchanted by the rose gardens spilling over elegant villa walls just steps away from the glamorous fashion shops.
Return to Positano in the late afternoon and enjoy dinner on your own.
*In case of rough sea conditions, for everyone’s safety and well-being, the ride to Capri may be arranged with a public ferry boat (without the chance of swimming and visiting the Faraglioni). In case of bad weather, the Capri excursion will be replaced by another land-based activity. No refunds will be given in either case.
Day 6 – History and Food in Naples, Positano, Amalfi Coast Tour
Meals included: breakfast, light lunch and dinner
This morning enjoy a drive to the southern Campania region with its fertile crops and numerous stables of buffalo cows.
Visit a well-established organic farm where every day the world’s famous mozzarella cheese is produced by hand, piece after piece. Sit at the table for a fresh light lunch with a selection of cheese, salad and homemade bread.
This afternoon, meet a friendly local expert in the nearby archeological site of Paestum, where Greek Temples are better preserved than those in Greece! The tour will include a look at the adjacent museum where the iconic “tomb of the diver” is kept.
Relax onboard our small bus as we drive back toward the southern tip of the Amalfi Coast. Meet local host Patrizia who proudly manages her family’s vineyard and lemon grove perched on a slope overlooking the Mediterranean.
Tonight, Patrizia’s mouth-watering dinner is paired with the DOC Amalfi wine, served under a pergola overlooking the coast and the sea.
Return to Positano after dinner.
Day 7 – Dinner by the sea in Sorrento
Meals included: breakfast and dinner
A tour of Italy wouldn’t be the same without some time off to take in the beauty of the destination and the chance to relax.
Enjoy this day reading a book on the balcony of your room in Positano, overlooking the maze of steep staircases and alleway or walk down to the beach.
Choose among Positano’s linen fashion, art galleries and seaside restaurants, your own way to celebrate the Italian lifestyle.
Later, meet your tour manager and drive to Sorrento for a late-afternoon stroll along Corso Italia and enjoy an aperitivo.
Toast with your new friends in a local restaurant on the water to the end of Naples, Positano and The Amalfi Coast Tour.
