Best way to travel from Naples to the Amalfi Coast - Positano (Italy). Bus or Taxi?

Estimated cost for a taxi? (Naples Train station to Hotel in Positano)



Where would I find a bus schedule? Website?Best way to travel from Naples to the Amalfi Coast - Positano (Italy). Bus or Taxi?
Well as already said you can have different choices



1Train you must go to Salerno first then from Salerno: SITA bus to Amalfi/Positano

2 Circumvesuviana (which is an inner train) from Napoli, inside the Central Station

2 SITA bus strigth from Napoli (also near to the Central Station)

3 Ferry (from the port)

4 Taxi



1 This is easy since you take the train to Salerno and then from there take the bus to Positano, you pay a bit more then option 2 and have to make sure to take the connecting bus, anyway all are scheduled so with a bit of planning can be done.

2 this is relatively cheap and easy since there are scheduled train every day. It is advisable not to take the train late in the day (aprox 5 Euro per person)

3 this is the cheapest, also easy to get but you must make sure to take the right one, so unless you don't speak a bit of italian this could be a bit problematic. (aprox 3 Euro)

4 This is relatively expensive, and you mast get to the port, it however a nice trip since you see the all bay, there are scheduled ferries and there is also a web site where to check

5 This is the most expensive way to get there, yon may even go for for 100 Euro.



Anyhow did you check with your hotel if there is a pick up service, normally it should be it or it could be arranged (however this also could be expensive)

There are ferries that go from Naples to the Amalifi Coast and from there you can take local buses to Positano, or a ferry to Capri. There is also an inner city train called the Circumvesuviana that goes all the way from Naples to Pompeii and stops at a lot of places along the way, like Sorrento, a great town to stay in.Best way to travel from Naples to the Amalfi Coast - Positano (Italy).

Traveling from Naples to Positano is scary no matter which way you travel because the road is *very* narrow around the mountainside with no guard rails on the outside. I traveled by bus and had to stand; it was very hot and crowded, but it gave me a feel for what the residents have to go through.
