Itinerary

Hotel Pickup in Rome

Your day begins smoothly as your private driver meets you at your hotel in Rome. Relax during the scenic transfer south, watching the landscapes shift from Roman countryside to Campania’s rugged coastline.

Scenic Drive Along the Amalfi Coast Road

Arrive at the coast and travel along one of the world’s most iconic panoramic roads. Dramatic cliffs, turquoise waters, ancient towns and terraced lemon groves unfold at every turn—perfect for photos and unforgettable views.

Stop 1 – Choose Your First Town

To make the private Amalfi Coast day trip from Rome manageable, and ensure the perfect balance between sightseeing and comfort, you can choose to visit two of the three main towns: Sorrento, Positano, or Amalfi.

Sorrento – Relaxed & Filled With Local Flavor

Perched on a dramatic clifftop, Sorrento blends seaside elegance with warm southern charm. Wander through historic alleys lined with artisan shops, where the scent of fresh lemons and handmade soaps fills the air. Browse boutiques for ceramics, leather goods, and local delicacies. Enjoy panoramic views over the Bay of Naples, or stroll the lively Piazza Tasso with its vibrant cafés and people-watching perfect for soaking up local life.

Positano – The Icon of the Amalfi Coast

Few places are as instantly recognizable as Positano. With pastel houses cascading toward the sea, narrow lanes draped in bougainvillea, and fashionable boutiques tucked into every corner, it’s a dreamlike seaside village. Descend to the Spiaggia Grande, the town’s main beach, where colorful umbrellas line the shore and, if you wish, you can take time for a swim. Every step in Positano feels cinematic—stylish, sun-soaked, and impossibly photogenic.

Amalfi – Historic, Grand & Lively

Once a powerful maritime republic, Amalfi blends history with Mediterranean energy. The highlight is the majestic Cathedral of St. Andrew, rising above a staircase that opens into a lively piazza filled with cafés and gelaterias. Explore charming alleyways, browse local paper shops—Amalfi is famous for its handmade paper—and enjoy waterfront views of boats drifting peacefully in the marina. Amalfi offers a balance of culture, scenery, and authentic coastal life.

Enjoy free time in your chosen town for exploring, shopping, and lunch at a restaurant of your choice (not included).

Stop 2 – Dive Into a Second Town

Visit a second town to experience a different atmosphere—the chic vertical beauty of Positano, the refined calm of Sorrento, or the historic heart of Amalfi. Each offers its own personality, cuisine, and charm.

Relax as your driver brings you back to Rome in full comfort after a day filled with unforgettable coastal views and charming seaside towns.

We had a great time! The kids loved taking videos on the scenic road, the amazing gelato in Sorrento and spending time on the beach in Positano - while we were shopping! The driver was super friendly and patient, which made the whole day stress-free. A perfect day!

From start to finish, this day trip was perfect. We had the luxury of seeing Sorrento and Positano at our own pace without rushing or following a big group. Our driver was friendly and knowledgeable, pointing out little hidden gems along the coast. Lunch with a view of the sea, shopping for local ceramics, and walking the narrow streets made it feel like a private adventure. Comfortable car, scenic roads, amazing scenery. What more could you ask for? We can’t stop talking about it!
