Things to do in Positano, Campania: The Best City Tours

May 21, 2022 Christa Meece

Once a vital part of a mighty sea power, Positano is today a sophisticated resort on the central Amalfi Coast. Moorish-style architecture rises up steep slopes that gaze out on the Sirenuse Islands. Smart boutiques, selling fashions for visitors to display on Grand Beach, abound in the village. And it’s a great base for exploring the area—you can easily travel by boat to Capri, Ischia and the Grotta dello Smeraldo cave.

This time we have chosen to discover Palermo in a walking tour. That was our first time in Palermo and our guide, knowing this detail, made a point in explaining and making us discover the main landmarks of this beautiful Sicilian city. After that he suggested a wonderful local restaurant where we had lunch and it was indeed very good food reasonably priced and the restaurant was full of local people, which is, when you don't know a city, the best token for good quality. After lunch our guide walked us back to our cruise. Thank you very much Tour Travel for this great experience

We took a day tour with Pompei Car Service from from the cruise port in Salerno in September. Our driver Giovanni was an excellent and entertaining driver. We were able to design our tour for the day and we relied heavily on Giovanni's recommendations. We started the day with short stop in Ravello. If you want to see a gorgeous town away from the crowds, check this place out. Then we headed to Amalfi. Amalfi is a beautiful town along the coast. There is a lot of shopping available there and we had some great gelato, but it was also very crowded. Then we headed off to Positano which turned out to be the highlight of a day full of highlights. We started with lunch at a fantastic restaurant up in the hill/mountain overlooking Positano. Then we headed down the mountain into Positano for the afternoon. I would highly recommend the Pompei Car Service. Don't miss the limoncello while touring the Amafi Coast.
