The Amalfi Coast can be complicated and time-consuming to visit on your own. Taking a shared minivan or minibus is the simplest and most affordable way to enjoy the sights. This eight/nine-hour trip begins in Sorrento and heads south for the breathtaking drive (lightly narrated by your driver-or narrated by your guide), and an hour or two in each of the three main towns - Positano, Amalfi and Ravello - before returning to Sorrento.

Great trip in June. Our guide picked us up about 8:30 and we headed around the coast to Positano stopping on the way for a photo stop. Very knowledgeable guide and knew how to get the best out of out time. Note this tour must be almost impossible during peak season due to traffic levels; it was incredibly busy during June so I can’t imagine what is is like in July/ August! We had about 30mins in Positano before heading off to Amalfi. Dramatic views of coast and advise sitting in the back if you are a nervous passenger. Had about 90mins in Amalfi and our guide offered a boat trip at extra cost which was well worth it as the you get a different perspective of the scenery from the coast. We had time for a nice lunch, chose an out of the way restaurant which was less crowded and cheaper than the most popular venues.
Our last location was Ravello up in the hills which is a beautiful location. A bit cooler and more cultured than the previous stops. Plenty of time to walk around and grab an ice cream.
It was a long day but excellent tour. You could do this yourself by bus or boat but you would not see as much in a day. Highly recommended.

The driver was great… a bit quite but was engaging. The van was top-notch and the views were spectacular. We made four stops and they were fabulous. We had the option for another ceramic shopping stop, but the group declined. The rainy/windy weather was challenging… but because of this, the traffic was light and crowds were small.

This tour was one of best I have ever taken! The tour guide was very personable and learning about Italy and his family were a joy! He gave us just enough time and space at each stop, which was a perfect was to experience these 3 wonderful and beautiful areas of the Amalfi coast. The small group is the way to go! I definitely recomment this one!

Our tour guide, Rafaela, was wonderful. He was timely in pickup’s. And so courteous. He was very knowledgeable about the Amalfi coast and extremely personable. We had a wonderful small group and shared a lovely lunch on a rooftop, overlooking the beautiful coast. Rafaela was a very safe driver. I was so impressed with his skills, as this is a very difficult task.

The booking experience, the efficient communication confirming the tour details, our driver, Giovanni , and of course the spectacular tour in itself was all great. Due to road closures, we could not do Ravello. Everything was incredible. Thanks to Rick Steves for suggesting Mondo Tour guides. Thank you Dario for your outstanding coordination.

We had a wonderful day. We had the chance to see three beautiful towns in one day. The driver was very entertaining, the van was comfortable, and the two other couples were a joy to travel with.
We highly recommend this tour.

With all the crowds this is the best way to see the Coast. The beauty from the water cannot be beat. See each of the major towns, your limited in each but then with all the tourists it is difficult to spend much time really enjoying any specific area .. but you can get a taste and you can get a glimpse of the beauty.

Wet rainy day. Tour guy made the best of it. Great comfortable bus for 20 people. One hour to one and a half hours in each town. Which is plenty. Tour guide directed to a nice place for lunch. All in all a good tour. Wish the weather was better
