Naples Airport to Positano Transfer
Your driver meets you at Arrivals with a name sign. From Naples Capodichino Airport directly to your hotel in Positano in about 75 minutes. Flight monitoring included.
Landing at Naples Capodichino Airport (NAP) is your gateway to the Amalfi Coast, but getting from the airport to Positano on your own can be complicated. There are no direct buses, the train doesn't reach Positano, and public SITA buses from Sorrento are crowded and infrequent. A taxi from the airport can be expensive with uncertain pricing, and driving yourself on the narrow Amalfi Coast road after a long flight is stressful.
Our Naples Airport to Positano private transfer solves all of this. Your dedicated driver monitors your flight and waits for you in the Arrivals hall with a sign bearing your name. From there, it's a comfortable 75-minute ride in a luxury Mercedes directly to the door of your hotel, villa, or B&B in Positano. No queues, no connections, no stress — just the scenic beauty of Southern Italy from the comfort of a private car.

Pompeii Stop on the Way

We can include a 2-hour stop so you can explore the ruins before continuing to the coast. This turns the transfer into a mini-tour without needing an extra day trip.
