The drive from Positano to Amalfi is one of the most iconic stretches of the Amalfi Coast road. Just 30 minutes along dramatic cliffs above the Mediterranean, it's breathtaking — but the SITA buses that run this route are often standing-room-only in summer, with no guaranteed seat on a road full of hairpin bends.

Our Positano to Amalfi private transfer lets you enjoy this legendary road in comfort. Your driver picks you up at your hotel, handles your luggage, and takes you along the coast to Amalfi. You can even ask to stop at the famous Fiordo di Furore or the Praiano viewpoints for photos.

Positano to Amalfi: The Scenic Route

Amalfi town on the coast

Along the Coast Road

Leaving Positano, the road climbs out of the village and passes above Praiano, a quieter town perched on cliffs. You then pass the dramatic Fiordo di Furore — a deep gorge cutting to the sea — and the tiny village of Conca dei Marini. The road continues past the Grotta dello Smeraldo (Emerald Grotto) before descending into Amalfi. Every turn reveals a new postcard-perfect view.

What Awaits in Amalfi

Amalfi is the historic heart of the coast, once a powerful maritime republic. Visit the stunning Cathedral of Saint Andrew, explore the Paper Museum, stroll the narrow shopping streets, or relax in the piazza with a limoncello. The town has a more laid-back feel than Positano and is slightly easier to walk around.

Day Trip or Hotel Change

Many guests use our Positano to Amalfi transfer for a hotel change — moving from one town to the other during a split-stay holiday. Others use it as a comfortable day trip option: your driver takes you to Amalfi in the morning and picks you up in the afternoon. Either way, you avoid the stress of the crowded bus.

Extending to Ravello

From Amalfi, Ravello is just 15 minutes uphill. Many guests combine the Positano to Amalfi transfer with a trip up to Ravello to see Villa Rufolo and the famous Terrace of Infinity at Villa Cimbrone. Just let us know when booking.
