Trip guide

Planning Amalfi Coast Escape.

Think of this route as a slow slide along one dramatic coastline. Sorrento sets up the trip with lemon groves and harbor dinners at Marina Grande. Positano comes next, stacked up the cliff above its main beach, and a launch point for walks toward the Path of the Gods. Amalfi adds its striped Duomo and paper-making history, and Ravello finishes high above the sea among the terraced gardens of Villa Rufolo.

Good for Couples and friends wanting scenic, seaside Italian days

When to go

May through September offers warm sea, long evenings and full ferry schedules. Late spring and early autumn are calmer than midsummer, when the coast gets busy and hot. Winter is quiet, but many hotels, restaurants and boats close for the season.

Getting around

The coast road is narrow and winding, so most travelers rely on buses, ferries and taxis rather than driving. Ferries between towns are scenic and run mostly in the warm months. Ravello sits uphill from Amalfi and is reached by a short bus or taxi ride.

Tips for your crew

  • Pack light and keep bags small. Many stays involve stairs, and moving between towns by ferry or bus is far easier without large suitcases.
  • Plan hikes for cooler mornings and check trail conditions locally before heading out. Treat the Path of the Gods as a half-day outing.
  • Reserve beds and the best dinner tables early for summer weekends, and keep one flexible day in case rough seas disrupt ferry plans.
