Private Amalfi coast tour
Everything was really great. The meeting instructions were clear. Our skipper did her best for us to enjoy our time. The boat is really nice and the tour is good value for money in comparison with others. Definitely recommend.

What a great day we had...
What a great day we had boating with Manuel as our Skipper. My favorite day of our Italian trip. You get to see so much more from the water than you can driving on the curvy roads. Includes stops in Positano and Amalfi. Also our skipper took us to his favorite lunch spot as well as his secret swimming area (beautiful cave). Most of the boat ride is so chill though, just relaxing and enjoying the scenery.

Fantastic experience
Our guide Michele was fantastic. We stopped at Positano, then traveled to a handful spots along the coast to swim and sightsee. We stopped for lunch as well which was superb. Would highly recommend!

LOVED IT!
We had the most amazing experience on our private boat tour of Amalfi & Positano! From the easy booking process to the private driver picking us up all the way in Castellammare, everything exceeded our expectations. Our skippers, Laura and Antonio, were absolutely amazing! We stopped in both Amalfi and Positano, and the amount of time in each city was perfect for exploring. Along the way, we stopped at an AMAZING restaurant accessible only by water, with OUTSTANDING food and service. We also had the opportunity to swim, saw a waterfall and the most amazing views of the coast, incredible bridges and so much history. Prosecco and Limoncello were complimentary! The views were breathtaking, and the entire experience was so romantic. Seriously, an unforgettable day that I will remember forever. I could not recommend this experience more. BOOK IT NOW!

Best Excursion on the Almalfi Coast!
This was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for my husband, our friends, and me! From start to finish, everything was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. What stood out to us even more was how caring and compassionate the owners of this company are. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of and that all of our needs were met. You can truly tell that they care about their guests and take great pride in providing an unforgettable experience. We are so grateful for the memories we made and would absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking for a special, personalized, and unforgettable tour experience!

Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amalfi.
How much does Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano cost?
+
Prices start at $381 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Amalfi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano 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 Amalfi is not rushed.
Is Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 201 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Amalfi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano?
+
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 Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano 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 Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano?
+
Around 70 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 Amalfi 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 Amalfi and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano 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 Amalfi 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 Amalfi?
+
On Outty we rank every Amalfi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hands-On Cooking Class & Farmhouse Tour on the Amalfi Coast, Pompeii and Amalfi Coast Private Day Trip with Pick Up, Amalfi Coast Boat Rental: Explore, Swim, and Relax at Your Pace. 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 Amalfi?
+
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 Amalfi?
+
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.

Not included: Fuel not included (depending on the port of departure); Skipper; Restaurant stop (if requested, the skipper will recommend the best restaurants on the sea); and Food and drinks (you can bring food on board). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano?
+
Our skipper will contact you to organize the most convenient meeting point for your needs Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private 40hp Boat Tour of the Amalfi Coast and Positano offered in?
