Meet your guide at Iamme Ia! - Gray Line Amalfi Coast Office
Experience a breathtaking drive along the Amalfi Coast Road, widely considered one of the most beautiful coastal routes in the world. As our professional driver navigates the dramatic cliffs and winding curves, you’ll enjoy unparalleled views of the turquoise Tyrrhenian Sea. We will include a dedicated photo stop at a panoramic viewpoint, allowing you to capture the stunning scenery without the stress of driving.
Gaze out at the enchanting Li Galli archipelago, a cluster of tiny private islands steeped in Greek mythology. Known as the legendary home of the Sirens who once tempted Ulysses, these emerald jewels rising from the sea offer one of the most iconic views of the coast. Your guide will share the fascinating stories and celebrity history linked to this mysterious corner of paradise.
Arrive in Positano, the 'Vertical City' famous for its colorful houses clinging to the mountainside. After a brief guided walking tour through the charming, narrow alleys, you will have ample free time to explore the city at your own pace
Visit on your free time this iconic landmark to admire its stunning majolica-tiled dome and the Byzantine Madonna.
Take a stroll along the famous pebbled shore, the social heart of Positano, perfect for photos or a refreshing dip.
To conclude your Positano experience, we’ll leave the crowds behind and board a boat to Amalfi. This scenic ferry ride offers the best perspective of the coast—seeing the colorful villages from the sea is a perspective most travelers miss! (Shared group option only)
Step ashore in Amalfi, the historic heart of the coast and once a powerful Maritime Republic. Wander through its labyrinth of medieval alleys and sun-drenched plazas. You’ll have time to explore the city's rich heritage, from its ancient paper-making traditions to the vibrant shops lining the main street, all while surrounded by the dramatic limestone cliffs that embrace the town.
Dominating the main square is the magnificent Amalfi Cathedral (Duomo di Sant'Andrea). Marvel at its iconic monumental staircase and the stunning 19th-century mosaic facade that glitters in the sun. This architectural masterpiece features a unique blend of Moorish and Romanesque styles—don’t miss the chance to see the Cloister of Paradise and the crypt dedicated to St. Andrew.
After exploring the wonders of Amalfi, we’ll board the bus once again and wind our way up the hillside. Get ready to reach Ravello, a sophisticated retreat perched high above the sea, far from the bustling coastal crowds. Known as the 'City of Music,' this peaceful hilltop village is world-famous for its lush gardens and aristocratic villas.
Ravello is a sanctuary of Mediterranean beauty, characterized by its quiet luxury and impeccable architecture. Beyond the famous vistas, the town invites you to explore its Romanesque treasures and hidden garden paths lined with fragrant jasmine and bougainvillea. It is the ultimate destination for those seeking a peaceful corner of paradise and a true taste of the Italian 'Dolce Vita'.
During your free time in Ravello, we highly recommend a visit to Villa Rufolo. Its breathtaking terrace offers what many consider the most spectacular panoramic view over the entire Gulf of Salerno.
As the afternoon winds down, relax on a scenic drive back to Sorrento. Sit back and enjoy the final coastal views from the comfort of your air-conditioned coach, reflecting on a day filled with the history, colors, and unforgettable landscapes of the Amalfi Coast.

The tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He was easy to talk to and he answered many questions.
Great your to see so many spots in one day. Our tour guide, Max, was AMAZING. He was very knowledgeable and truly cared if his group was having a good time or had any questions.
Wonderful day spent visiting the Amalfi Coast. Robbie is a great guide - very entertaining.
Roberto and Alfredo the driver were both brilliant, Roberto was funny, informative and really helpful. The tour itself is long but brilliant, and the extra boat trip for €15 is absolutely worth it, what an amazing way to view the Amalfi Coast. I would absolutely recommend the trip - yes it’s expensive but it’s amazing! Thank you Roberto!
Roberto provided a fantastic tour for the day. He was both informative and entertaining. This is a beautiful part of the world and our tour gave a good balance of finding out the history of the area and exploring alone. Thanks Roberto.
The whole experience was amazing! I’d like to give a big shoutout to our tour guide Serjio. He was the sweetest man ever and was an excellent tour guide. He really made the trip. It was also so lovely that he took all of us to a little restaurant in Amalfi for lunch. I would a 100% recommend this tour to others.

We were not staying in the Amalfi coast at all so this tour was a great way to see it all! Our guide Sergio and driver Giovanni were fantastic, would highly recommend! It’s very hot at the moment so wear comfortable walking shoes and take some water with you. There are a few spots to fill your water bottle along the trip. Sergio suggested a restaurant for lunch and it was delicious! Loved the tour, thank you ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A well organised tour tour guide Roberto knowledgeable and humorous Driver was Luciano The scenery along the way was nice
The tour to Positano, Amalfi Coast & Ravello sites was a beautiful experience. Roberto, our tour guide showed to have knowageable about the topics he was funny and entraitement. Now, the tour included a ride in the ferry to reach to Amalfi. BUT the tour cost did not include a additional boat ride which was optional and enjoyable with extra fee. If the ferry ride can not be skipt then add the ride cost to take boat. In my opinion, it is not good to be surprised with an extra fee the day of the event even if the boat ride. In this case, is a must have event.
