Amalfi boat tour
Relative to our other five tours, this ranked the lowest. The tour was informative. the captain was knowledgeable, and swimming in the Mediterranean Sea was wonderful. However, stopping at the Amalfi island Pasitano was not enjoyable. The crowds and the time allowed on these two stops did not meet our expectations. We also went off-season, so when the crowds were thinner. We had no time to explore the towns nor the desire to because of the crowds.

Amalfi boat tour

Stunning Boat Tour to Positano and Amalfi
I went in a group of 6 and this was worth our money. The guide on our boat, Antonio, was hospitable and charismatic. They gave us plenty of time to explore the towns we stopped at and were very informative during the tour. Our tour lasted over 7 hours and we enjoyed every second!
via Tripadvisor
Spectacular!
This was one of the highlights of our vacation! We enjoyed this tour so much. It was exactly as described. Rafael was such a fantastic host. He was funny, helpful and so nice. We loved swimming along the coast and visiting Amalfi and Positano. The views from the boat were breathtaking! What a spectacular day!
via Viator
Highly recommend this experience!
Highly recommend this experience! They were able to pick us up directly from hotel which was convenient. The boat was a great size for our smaller group of 10-12 people. This is a full day experience and we visited Amalfi and Positano with an hour+ to explore each city. The boat guide and captain were fun and professional. Free beers and champagne were available on the boat as well. 10/10!

From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Positano.
How much does From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up cost?
+
Prices start at $159 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Positano usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Positano is not rushed.
Is From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 497 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Positano, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up?
+
Around 174 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Positano can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Positano and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Sorrento: Positano & Amalfi Coast Boat Tour with Pick Up start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Positano within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Positano?
+
On Outty we rank every Positano experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cooking class with Pasta, mozzarella and Tiramisu with wine, Capri and Blue Grotto Semi Private Boat Day Trip from Sorrento, From Sorrento: Capri & Optional Blue Grotto Boat Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Positano?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Positano?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
