We spent one week at the Amalfi coast and visited Sorrento, Naples, Capri, and took a boat tour along the coast to get to the little towns. It was beautiful but I would not go again. There are so many people. To drive along the coast was let’s say challenging. The roads themselves really weren’t that bad, however, the traffic was a nightmare. It wasn’t possible to stop at any of the towns along the way as there were simply no parking spots left. If you go to this area in the summer (we were there at the end of August) do yourself a favor and go on a boat tour to see the towns.
Posted: May 31, 2023I've been to Amalfi Coast and I felt super safe. Super friendly people and also a small place, walkable and incredibly beautiful. I highly recommend visiting it.
Posted: May 24, 2023I stayed in 2 hotels in Sorrento and from there I took a train to Pompeii, a boat ride to Capri, and a day trip (by bus) to Positano. Sorrento is a beautiful little town with lots of restaurants and shops.
Posted: February 18, 2023I did a week in the Amalfi Coast last year. We made base in Sorrento as it was a lot cheaper and just did day trips to Capri/Amalfi/Positano/Ravello/Pompeii/mount Vesuvius etc! Restaurants etc are miles cheaper in Sorrento than in Positano as well.
Posted: February 17, 2023I stayed in Sorrento and just used the bus to get to Positano. (I had initially booked the ferry but it got canceled). Sorrento was a lot cheaper but was a sweet town with lots of markets and places to eat. You can swim there too. There’s a train station in Sorrento also.
Posted: February 17, 2023I've been to the Amafi area, including Positano in late Sept, early Oct. I found it very crowded. I was there for two weeks, week 1, raining, so the ferry service was not operating place huge pressure on leaving Amalfi for both Salerno and Sorento and travelling to Amalfi. The buses were over crowded and just did not stop at most stops as it was all ready jammed packed. I was staying at Vietri sul Mare so did not need to use the bus. Once the sun showed, the ferry service resumed making my travels fantastic. I did love Positano, Ravello and Cetara.
Posted: November 28, 2022I went in Positano in March and was wonderful, not crowded at all, great weather. Was my first solo trip, and I have no words to describe the happiness that the Almafi Coast gave me. Went up and down stairs. lots of them and I was a happy camper, the most beautiful views I have ever seen. I stayed in an airbnb with an spectacular terrace. Best trip in my life.
