Amalfi Coast Day Trip by High-Speed Train from Rome

Day TripsOff the Beaten PathPopular
The most stress-free and sustainable way to tour the stunning Amalfi Coast. Leaving crowds, traffic, hairpin turns and cramped buses behind while you revel in Italy’s most picturesque coastline.
Once a collection of fishing villages, Italy’s magnificent Amalfi Coast is now a world-class tourist destination. But as is often the case, with great beauty come great problems. Too many vehicles,  crippling traffic, too few parking areas, and hairpin curves that make two-way traffic unbearable, are just a few of the challenges faced by Italy’s Amalfi Coast in recent years.

This day trip from Rome allows you to travel smarter, without sacrificing on comfort or style. Visiting the Amalfi Coast by high-speed train means you’ll not only enjoy extra legroom and complimentary beverages and snacks, but you’ll also cut travel time to the coast in HALF. You’ll step off the train and onto the pier where your Amalfi Coast adventure begins.

In an intimate group of 18 or fewer, your guide will lead the way from the train to the ferryboat. Once seated, enjoy a one-hour cruise from Salerno to Positano while taking in the coastline of characteristic cliffs that create the backdrop for this UNESCO World Heritage site of once-fishing villages-turned stomping ground for the world’s elite.  You’ll step back onto terra ferma to explore Positano, the jewel of the Amalfi Coast. Choose whether to have a morning swim or explore the dozens of chic boutiques and artisan shops, then enjoy a leisurely lunch before returning to the pier for a short ride to our next destination, the town of Amalfi.

It’s no wonder why this stunning coastline takes its name from Amalfi. This bustling town is where the action is, packed with shops, beaches, restaurants, and picture-perfect photo ops. Your guide will provide you with a short orientation stroll including an overview of the 11th-century cathedral and a limoncello tasting at one of the local shops, after which you can enjoy some free time shopping and exploring or hit the beach.

From Amalfi, enjoy a short cruise back to Salerno while taking in unique views of the towns of Minori, Maiori, Cetara, and Ravello from the water. Your guide will accompany you from the pier to the station (just a few steps away) in time for your return journey to Rome.
