Itinerary
Day 1
Day trip schedule from meeting in Naples, visit Pompeii, coastal panoramas above Positano, free time in Amalfi, return to Naples.
Meet & boarding — Piazza Giuseppe Garibaldi (Naples)
Meet your driver and group at the meeting point near Piazza Giuseppe Garibaldi 91. Staff will check names and boarding passes before departure.
Tips from local experts:
- Aim to arrive 10–15 minutes early to secure seats together on the coach (ask staff politely for window seats for the coast view).
- Carry passports/IDs and the booking confirmation in your phone — staff will check names before boarding.
- Bring a light jacket for the morning sea breeze and a small day bag for essentials (water, camera, sunscreen).
Coach transfer: Naples → Pompeii (approx.)
Comfortable coach transfer from central Naples to the archaeological site of Pompeii. There will be an on-board assistant to answer questions during the drive.
Tips from local experts:
- Sit on the right side of the coach heading southeast for better early views of Mt. Vesuvius — ideal for couples who want a memorable photo together.
- Use the coach time to download any offline map or photos of Pompeii to set expectations for highlights you want to see together.
- If you need motion-sickness remedies, take them before the winding coastal sections later in the day; the early transfer is mostly motorway.
Guided visit: Parco Archeologico di Pompei
Licensed guide (or audio guide depending on season/group) leads a 2-hour exploration of Pompeii's ruins — see the forum, theater, thermal baths and preserved houses that reveal daily Roman life.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear comfortable, closed shoes — the excavation paths are uneven; bring a wide-brim hat and sunscreen for sun protection.
- Plan a shared 'slow moment' at the Forum or a terrace wall for a quiet photo together — guides usually point out less-crowded corners for views of Vesuvius.
- Buy or prebook the official site ticket (if not included) to skip local queues; the tour operator offers a paid entrance ticket as an extra if needed.
Coach transfer: Pompeii → Sentiero degli Dei (Positano viewpoint)
Scenic coastal drive toward the Amalfi Coast with a brief stop at a high viewpoint on the Sentiero degli Dei (Path of the Gods) area above Positano for sweeping panoramas.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask the driver for a quick photo stop at the highest safe viewpoint — the light in late spring flatters skin tones for couple portraits.
- Pack sunglasses and a light scarf — spring winds can be brisk at elevated viewpoints, and the scarf makes for a romantic photo prop.
- If you prefer a quieter spot, stand slightly away from the coach parking area; small side paths often give the best private views.
Panoramic stop — Sentiero degli Dei viewpoint (Positano)
Short outdoors stop above Positano for photos and to soak in the coastal vista — a perfect quick romantic moment overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Tips from local experts:
- Share a quick gelato from a nearby vendor if available — an impromptu taste makes the view feel even more intimate.
- Look for a quiet ledge or low wall away from the main group for a private 5–10 minute moment together.
- Keep one small bottle of water handy; the best viewpoints may require a short walk from the coach and you’ll want to stay hydrated.
Coach transfer: Positano → Amalfi
Short coastal transfer along the famous SS163 Amalfitana to the town of Amalfi where you will have free time to explore and have lunch.
Tips from local experts:
- Reserve window seats on the right side for cliff-and-sea photos as you descend toward Amalfi.
- If you want a later relaxed lunch, ask the driver about the best drop-off spot near Piazza Duomo for easy restaurant access.
- Carry small change for quick purchases (postcards, limoncello samples) — many artisan shops prefer cash for small items.
Free time in Amalfi — Piazza Duomo (lunch & stroll)
Enjoy 1.5 hours of free time to wander Amalfi’s charming lanes, have a relaxed lunch, visit Cattedrale di Sant'Andrea or sample local limoncello at a specialty shop.
Tips from local experts:
- For a romantic lunch, choose a terrace restaurant facing the Duomo or the harbor — ask for a table with a view when you arrive.
- Visit a local limoncello maker (e.g., Limonoro) for a quick tasting — share a small bottle as a memento of the day.
- Wear comfortable shoes for cobbled streets; couples looking for a quieter spot should stroll up the side lanes toward the cathedral for calmer photo backdrops.
Return coach transfer — Amalfi → Naples (Molo Beverello area)
Relaxing return journey to Naples; coach will drop guests back to the original meeting area or a central Naples location (Molo Beverello / Piazza Garibaldi area).
Tips from local experts:
- Sit together on the left side for coastal-to-city transition views as you approach Naples and for potential sunset hues in late spring.
- Use the return ride to swap your favorite photos from the day and pick your best shot as a keepsake or social post.
- Expect arrival to central Naples around late afternoon; plan any onward reservations in Naples for after 17:00 to avoid rushing.
