Amazing Amalfi Experience
We had a fantastic time. This was definitely the best way to see the Amalfi Coast. With enough time to explore Amalfi and Positano, as well as 3 swim stops. These were especially nice after the town visits, in the heat. Free drinks were a nice bonus. And the pick up and drop off was very much appreciated. Our guide was very friendly and informative.

Super trip! Amalfi, Positano swimming in the best sea of Costiera
We started perfect in time with a comfortable boat and with only 9 guests (10 including the skipper). The boat had drinks and snacks. Possibility to live the "speed", sun and water spray during the navigation on the front seats or to stay on the back seats under the cover. We had two stops for a swim (Li Galli islands and Nerano). We visited Amalsi (2.5h) and Positano (1h). Skipper was super kind and friendly. He spoke good english and provided lots of information during the navigation. I reccomend this tour. My son (12yo) and my wife enjoyed the tour and we had lots of fun!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a great time exploring the Amalfi Coast with us. It’s fantastic to know that you enjoyed the comfortable boat, the swimming stops at Li Galli and Nerano, as well as the time spent visiting Amalfi and Positano. We’re also very happy that the skipper made your day even more enjoyable with his kindness and recommendations. ⛵️🌊 We’re especially glad to hear that your son and your wife had so much fun! It was a pleasure having you all on board, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure along the coast.

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi cost?
+
Prices start at $1100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi 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 Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi?
+
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 Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi 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 Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi?
+
Around 3 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Boat Excursion: Amalfi Coast, Positano & Amalfi 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 Sorrento 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 Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Private Amalfi Coast Day Tour from Sorrento or Naples, Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting. 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 Sorrento?
+
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 Sorrento?
+
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.
