Top 6 things to do in Amalfi
Located an hour south of Naples, Amalfi is undoubtedly one of the most enchanting cities on the Italian coastline. With cream-colored villas tumbling down to clear blue waters, this town is a paragon of Italian seaside splendor. See for yourself!
1. Amalfi Coast
Though the entire European rim of the Mediterranean is gorgeous, the Amalfi Coast, with dramatic mountains and white sand beaches, is really something special.
2. Amalfi Cathedral
A central landmark in Amalfi, the Amalfi Cathedral dates all the way back to the 9th century and features a fascinating mix of architectural influences.
3. La Trinita della Cava
Located in a river gorge, this impressive Benedictine monastery contains an archive of ancient documents dating back to the 8th century.
4. Villa Cimbrone Gardens
Prepare to be stunned by the Villa Cimbrone Gardens, which overlook a breathtaking landscape of jagged, forest-covered mountains and endless sparkling sea.
5. Duomo di Salerno
The Duomo di Salerno, a cathedral built in 1048, is one of the most famous landmarks in Amalfi. The building is dedicated to Matthew the Apostle, whose tomb is found inside.
6. Villa Rufolo
Villa Rufolo features impressive local architecture, but it's the gardens that make this place a must-visit. If you're lucky you can catch a Classical music concert on the terrace.

What people are saying about Amalfi
We had a fantastic day from start to finish. Joseph, our kind collected us bright and early from our hotel alongside driver Roberto. We were then taken to Pompeii for an amazing private tour with local guide Antonio. All three were nothing but amazing, knowledge, and laughs from Joseph and Antonio and super safe driving from Roberto. Our stop in Positano was one I'll will remember dearly, this has to be one of the most beautiful areas in the world. Thank you all
The Guide (Teresa) was amazing, very happy and ready to answer our questions and with great explanations about the places we were! The Driver was very careful and excellent the whole way! Totally recommend a tour with both of then! Amazing experience!
A great trip. Well worth the early start and great value for money. Our guide and driver were both excellent. A different guide took us through Pompeii and showed us a lot of things we would otherwise have missed. The Amalfi coast is stunning.
It was a lovely trip! Staff was very kind and polite. It totally worth it. The views/the boat trip were very nice. I strongly recommend it.
What a day! Massimo was a great guide and the Amalfi Coast is pretty amazing, worth a revisit!
