Excursion Amalfi drive, positano & lunch in a deluxe hotel tour at Naples

Cruise line: Silversea
Difficulty:

Depart the pier and board a private minibus for the scenic 1.5 hour drive along the spectacular Sorrento and Amalfi Coast to Positano.  The narrow road winds along the side of rocky seaside cliffs, and offers breathtaking views of the Italian Riviera.  Marvel at the rocks rising from the sea, and see small boats in sheltered sandy coves that look like brightly coloured toys from above.  

Positano

Upon arrival in Positano begin a short walk to the city's main centre. Enjoy an introductory tour, continue exploring with your guide the designer boutiques, souvenir shops and art galleries found along the main street and narrow alleys.

Once a small fishing village, Positano is now the star attraction of the entire Amalfi Coast.  White Moorish-type houses cling dramatically to slopes around a small sheltered bay.  Many of the houses can only be reached via steep staircases.  A 1.5-hour visit allows you to take in the unique setting and special ambience of Positano.  At the appointed time, rejoin your guide and walk to a Deluxe Hotel located by the sea.

Lunch in a Deluxe Hotel

A three-course lunch will be served in a 5-star hotel located in the heart of Positano's lively shopping area. It offers an enchanting view on the sea, with Li Galli Rocks and Positano, thanks to his privileged location directly on the sea.

Leaving the hotel, walk back to the minibus pick-up point and return to Naples via the same stretch of Amalfi Drive, Sorrento Coast and Motorway.
