10 Sightseeing Tours in Positano That You Shouldn't Miss

September 29, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

Once a vital part of a mighty sea power, Positano is today a sophisticated resort on the central Amalfi Coast. Moorish-style architecture rises up steep slopes that gaze out on the Sirenuse Islands. Smart boutiques, selling fashions for visitors to display on Grand Beach, abound in the village. And it’s a great base for exploring the area—you can easily travel by boat to Capri, Ischia and the Grotta dello Smeraldo cave.

We did a private wine country tour with Francesco in October 2019 (it has taken me entirely too long to write this review). We had a great time with Francesco. He is so personable and was so much fun to spend the day with. Ask him to tell you the story of why there are black roosters on Chianti Classico wine bottles. Francesco is very professional, was able to accommodate a change in plans based on our preferences, and delivered top-notch service throughout the day. If (when) we go back to Florence, we will be giving Francesco a call!

Had a great time onboard, towels and prosecco provided and plenty of room to relax and sunbathe. Our skipper recommend a great place for lunch on Capri which we both enjoyed. Great weather, fantastic way to see the Sorrento coast and Capri. Thank you!

Vincenzo picked us up on time, was organized, knowledgeable, funny and a great driver. We visited Sorrento, an olive oil factory, a restaurant with the most amazing view, food and service, Positano and Pompeii. It was a highlight of our week in the Mediterranean. The restaurant and Positano are a must do. Pompeii was interesting and we could have spent more time there (as we had elected to only be there for an hour on our own, so would suggest a guided tour). We absolutely recommend Letusdrive tours & Vincenzo!

Me and my partner took part in this cooking class, even though we had many notions about cooking, and we loved it. The hosts were super friendly, and they showed us how to prepare proper Italian fresh pasta. They even gave us their original recipes, so that we can replicate them at home. We also tried some exquisite cheese, charcuterie and wines, which were all produced in the farmhouse. I would strongly recommend it!!

We took a day tour with Pompei Car Service from from the cruise port in Salerno in September. Our driver Giovanni was an excellent and entertaining driver. We were able to design our tour for the day and we relied heavily on Giovanni's recommendations. We started the day with short stop in Ravello. If you want to see a gorgeous town away from the crowds, check this place out. Then we headed to Amalfi. Amalfi is a beautiful town along the coast. There is a lot of shopping available there and we had some great gelato, but it was also very crowded. Then we headed off to Positano which turned out to be the highlight of a day full of highlights. We started with lunch at a fantastic restaurant up in the hill/mountain overlooking Positano. Then we headed down the mountain into Positano for the afternoon. I would highly recommend the Pompei Car Service. Don't miss the limoncello while touring the Amafi Coast.

The Path of the Gods or “Sentiero degli Dei” is simply a must! It was my favorite and most memorable experience while visiting Amalfi Coast. This clifftop trail provides breathtaking views of the coast. The hike isn’t difficult but I would recommend comfortable hiking shoes/sneakers.

We had a great day boating up the Amalfi coast, seeing Positano from the water and having some time in Amalfi town was great. They take you to some great spots to swim, and the boat and staff are amazing! Thank you for such a great day, this trip is well worth it!
