- Initially a group of humble fishing hamlets, the stunning Amalfi Coast of Italy has evolved into a supreme travel hotspot of worldwide renown. However, increased popularity often entails complex issues. The coast is battling challenges such as extensive vehicular presence, crippling congestion, inadequate parking facilities, and nightmare-inducing twisting roads that render bi-directional commuting a horror.
The day tour starting from Rome allows travelers to make smart choices by not compromising on ease and opulence. By opting for high-speed train travels, you enjoy additional leg space, complimentary refreshments, and halve your travel duration. Your adventure commences the moment you step off the train and onto the wharf.
- Your guide will accompany your close-knit group from the train to the ferry. Relish a one-hour boat ride from Salerno to Positano, the once humble fishing settlement now bestowed with a UNESCO World Heritage status and frequented by the global upper crust. Reaching Positano, the crown jewel of the Amalfi Coast, you have the option to take a morning dip or tour the numerous upscale boutiques and local artisan shops, post which you can indulge in a slow-paced lunch before getting back onto the pier for a brief journey to our subsequent pit-stop, the vibrant town of Amalfi.
Amalfi, the lively town from which the breathtaking coast derives its name, bustles with vibrant shops, fantastic restaurants, and beaches. The town makes for an excellent backdrop for memorable pictures. Your guide will then take you on a quick orientation walk, showcasing the iconic cathedral from the 11th-century and allow a tasting session of the aromatic limoncello at a local store, post which you can bask in your leisure time either exploring, shopping, or soaking the sun at the beach.
- Departing from Amalfi, engage in a brief sail back to Salerno, absorbing distinctive panoramas of the townships of Minori, Maiori, Cetara, and Ravello from the sea. Your guide will be with you, escorting you from the pier to the station (a stone’s throw away) to ensure your punctual return to Rome.
