Planning the Amalfi Coast properly is almost entirely a logistics problem, which is why most first-time itineraries go wrong. The 40-kilometre stretch runs from Positano in the west to Vietri sul Mare in the east, and the key decision is where to base yourself. Sorrento is the consensus starting point โ€” it has a direct train from Naples airport and ferry connections to Positano, Capri, and Amalfi town โ€” but arriving without pre-arranged parking or accommodation that matches a specific base will cost you half a day. The standard mistake is treating Positano and Amalfi town as both day trips from the same hotel; that imposes ferry and bus transfers in both directions on days that are already compressed by heat and crowd pressure. Shoulder season โ€” mid-April to mid-June, or mid-September โ€” is the near-unanimous recommendation, with milder temperatures and less competition for ferries. A 5-day structure works: arrive via Naples and spend at least one full day in Amalfi town itself, then distribute days between Ravello, Positano, and Capri.

The videos below divide the itinerary challenge into two useful layers. ‘The Amalfi Coast in One Day: A Perfect Itinerary’ is the most practical single-video move โ€” it maps the Sorrento-to-Amalfi ferry sequence, identifies where to eat by the water versus where to park, and is genuinely useful as a day-structure skeleton. Pair it with ‘Best Things to Do in Amalfi Coast Italy in 5 Days’, which expands the same logic across a week and addresses the driving question specifically. Together they cover what guidebooks miss: the difference between touring the coast by car versus ferry, and why the ferry-from-Sorrento approach is the cleaner option for most visitors.
