What to do and see in Amalfi Coast, Campania: The Best Self-Guided Tours & Rentals

August 9, 2021 Tynisha Seiler

Stretching along the southern side of Italy's Sorrentine Peninsula, the Amalfi coast dazzles with its mysterious grottos, craggy cliffs and shimmering bays. Grab a seat on the sea side of a regional bus to soak up views on the fabled route from artsy Positano to Amalfi. Ravello offers some respite from the crowds, plus the stunning Villa Cimbrone, which overlooks the Bay of Salerno. The historic section of Sorrento has winding streets filled with craftspeople. Capri is only a hydrofoil or ferry ride away.

Loved the day! The crew is awesome, friendly and knowledgeable, we enjoyed their company but they also gave us privacy and were very professional. Capri is gorgeous and we got to see all the beautiful caves. Will very much recommend and will definitely use them again when in the area.

we were traveling to Italy and I needed an electric scooter due to hip issues. I was put in touch with Freeedom Scooters through the Concierge at my hotel in Sorrento. They agreed to rent me a scooter for the entire stay in Italy, and even agreed for me to take it to Florence so I could use it on all of our tour group's day trips. They sent shipping material to my hotel in Florence so we could package it up for shipping back to Sorrento. What service! The scooter performed flawlessly! Thank you Freedom Scooters!

A complete tour, a full immersion in the main archaeological and landscape sites of the Neapolitan reality. The journey opens extraordinarily with the first stop at the Ruins of Pompeii, the world-famous archaeological site that dominates the city center majestically. You will have a guided tour of the ruins, in your language. The historical atmosphere then changes shape, imbued with the smell of the lemons of the splendid Sorrento peninsula and right here, you can delight your palate through the tasting of this gold in a bottle inside one of the oldest factories of the whole coast. Continuing along the coast, you will begin to see wonderful and colorful little houses overlooking the sea, the emblem of the picturesque Positano, a true pearl of the Amalfi coast. A breathtaking spectacle, a spectacular panorama that will give you the last stop of the tour, through the view from the square to the city gates.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Private transportation, Audio guide, All Fees and Taxes, Limoncello factory tour and tasting, English speaking assistance on board

Exclusions: Tickets entrance, Tip or gratuities

Nico was out tour guide. He was very pleasant and knowledgeable. He was not like previous tour guides that I have had experience with in such that he did not push us towards any particular restaurant or stores. Rather, he gave us general advice and told us which places were not recommended and why. We felt that he had our best interests at heart and not looking for kickbacks like other tour guides.

After a short journey of about an hour and forty minutes, we will arrive at the Positano belvedere and from its belvedere you can admire the unique beauties and its enveloping scents make the place unique in the world. After about half an hour you reach a seaside village that gives its name to this coastal area: Amalfi. Here we can admire the symbol of the Amalfi coast par excellence: the Cathedral of Sant'Andrea, an impressive architectural complex that overlooks the square of the same name. Our last stop will be Ravello, the town that offers the best views of the Amalfi Coast. Traditional palaces and villas with their beautiful gardens make this area one of the favorite vacation spots of the Italian nobility. From the garden of Villa Rufolo (the most famous of Ravello) we can enjoy an unparalleled view of the area.

Best company to book a private boat tour with! Domenico was quick to respond to queries on the emails. He even sent photos of the different boats they offer with clear description of what is included in the price. Honest and efficient company with affordable high quality tours. Sadly, we had to cancel the booking due to the pandemic but I was given my deposit straight away. I would definitely book with them again!!

I found Chic & Fabulous on Tripadvisor and decided to book after comparing prices and reading review of other companies. As part of our honeymoon, we spent 5 days on the Amalfi coast between Ravello and Positano. Initially I scheduled our trip with Chic & Fabulous to be when we were in Ravello (leaving from Amalfi). I was a little concerned about the weather as there was rain in the forecast, so I asked about rescheduling. While it probably would have been fine (it was overcast in the morning but cleared up), Maria was more than happy to work with me to reschedule. Because we rescheduled, we had to change our route and leave from Positano instead. The sea police in Positano were checking every boat the morning of our trip and our boat was delayed by an hour or so getting to us. Maria and team were in constant communication with us and very clear about the delay, and very apologetic. In order to make up for the delay, she upgraded our boat which was a welcomed surprise. Despite getting a later start, the duration of our day was perfect. We did the Amalfi route and stopped at several points to see landmarks and stop for a swim, as well as lunch. We stayed at Le Agavi and our last swim stop happened to be right by our hotel, which has a dock. Marco let us know the dock was too small for the boat to drop us off, but happily arranged for the hotel's water taxi to come pick us up instead so that we didn't have to go back to Positano (in the opposite direction). Overall, the day we had was our favorite of our trip and was well worth the price. Highly recommend booking through Chic & Fabulous!

Excellent all-round service from Antoninio and his family. The bikes were delivered and collected at the correct time, with all the information needed. Antoninio was very flexible with days I wished to use the bikes, which I appreciated. The bikes worked very well. Battery lasted longer than anticipated. Lock, helmet and lights included. I would highly recommend these bikes and the family business. I will certainly use them again, should I return. You will see some pictures high in the hills. These bikes are perfect for exploring the surrounding landscape. The bikes are fantastic and have 5 different assist settings, which give you more peddle with each push. With a middle ground assist of 3 on the bike you can travel long distances with medium effort (except the hills!). You can use an assist of 5 for steeper inclines.

The electric bicycle is undoubtedly the fastest, most ecological and least expensive way to visit Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast. Unlike cars, bicycles can access all areas of the center, even those with limited traffic. Forget the bans and parking problems. With the electric bicycle you will never be tired of this city.

We rented a motorboat without skipper for a day from Sorrento. Antonino and his father came to pick us up at our hotel. He also booked a restaurant for lunch in Capri for us and gave us some good tips on how best to plan our trip. They were very friendly, took the time to explain the boat and the boat was new and in good condition.

We were there in February and the shop was closed because of Low season, but the lady picked up the phone and came for us to rent us a scooter for 2 hours - she was very friendly - also we came half an hour later and she didn't charge us more but was so kind and friendly. A really good service!! Also we could leave our things in her office while we were gone... That was really great and a highlight for us. Even though it's not cheap (24 hours 60 Euro and one hour 20 Euro, so 2 hours 40 Euro) but it's Amalfi Coast and so worth it! ;)
