About this experience
A boat tour of the Amalfi Coast will give you the opportunity to discover the Divine Coast in all its peculiar beauty and to discover inlets, grottoes and details that you would never be able to see from land. Deemed by Unesco to be an outstanding example of a Mediterranean landscape, the Amalfi Coast is a beguiling combination of great beauty. We will sail along the beautiful Amalfi coast, stopping at the most attractive bays to admire the inlets and grottos. Passing in front of Praiano, the fiord of Furore, Conca dei Marini where there is the Emerald Grotto (optional visit, entrance fee not included, to be paid on site) we will sail past Amalfi - the oldest Maritime Republic - towards Atrani, Minori and Maiori. Following this fascinating cruise, we will make a 2/3-hour stop to discover Amalfi town's charm at your own pace. The boat trip includes two swimming stops in the crystal-blue waters. And, while returning to our starting points, you will enjoy an aperitif on board!

Amalfi coast by sea
Our guide Francesco was terrific. Took very good care of us and showed us fun areas along the Amalfi coast

Absolutely fabulous experience!
I really enjoyed this tour very professional personnel. I had such a great time and there was opportunity to swim twice and explore Amalfi (plenty of time for everything so you don’t feel in the rush). I highly recommend solo or with the group..

Amazing Amalfi Coast Boat Tour
This tour was perfect! Exactly what we were looking for. We wanted to tour the Amalfi Coast and have the interesting homes and historical buildings pointed out, a chance to swim in the Mediterranean Sea, and especially a chance to photograph this incredibly captivating coastline. This tour delivered ideally on all of these points. Our tour guide and captain of the tour boat Denalo and Fabio were great. Both were lifelong residents of the Amalfi Coast area and were great at pointing out all of the interesting locations, and were able to answer all of our questions about locations that weren't specifically called out. I recorced over an hour of video, hundreds of photos, a huge percentage of which were panoramic photos, to remember this gorgeous coastline. The tour group was about 12 patrons, and we democratically decided on a few either/or options such as where we docked for lunch, and whether to wait to enter - for a fee - a protected grotto. Happily, we all agreed not to wait 45 minutes to enter the grotto and pay for the privilege. And we also chose to eat at a beach seafood restaurant, rather than going into the very crowded and extra touristy town of Amalfi. Throughout the day we were offered snacks and a nice variety of beverages; Water - still or sparkling, soft drinks, alcoholic canned beverages, the local signature cocktail - the Aperol Sprit as well as the Proseco, and of course, ever present on the coast - Limoncello. We stopped at about 5 places to swim in safe areas 50 - 200 feet off the shore in the crystal clear waters. The tour moved a great pace, never feeling pressed for time or dragging. This tour was an informative and relaxing, with fantastic, personable and knowledgeable tour guides, with nice amenities and really, just the best way to take in this amazing coastline. The very friendly and hospitable Denalo and Fabio were great co-stars, but the coast itself was clearly star was of this show. I can strongly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking to be informed, entertained, and well-provisioned at a fair price.

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Amalfi.
How much does Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano cost?
+
Prices start at $171 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 Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano 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 Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 184 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Amalfi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano?
+
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 Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano 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 Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano?
+
Around 64 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 Small Group Amalfi Coast Day Trip from Positano or Praiano 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, Amalfi Coast Boat Rental: Explore, Swim, and Relax at Your Pace, Amalfi: Kayak-Snorkeling to Pandora Cave Hidden Beach & Aperitif. 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.
