Most tourists make the mistake of going through the hotel, but that is usually three times as expensive as booking directly yourself. I booked a nice little boat for around 150 euros, not including fuel. It was great for exploring the area and we took it past Positano and had lunch at the most special place, Conca Del Sogno. As the winds picked up in the afternoons, the boat was not the most comfortable, but that was due to choppy waters and the boats small size. As long as the waters are smooth, this is a great price and a fantastic way to see the Amalfi Coast. You do not need a boating license, just a bit of experience and good common sense!

We stopped and swam off the coast of Li Gilli island, stopped and had our lunch on the boat in front of the beautiful town of Positano, drove and swam, enjoyed the sun and had a blast.

Compromised of 13 town and villages, this region was originally a maritime power between the 9th…read moreand 13th centuries, with notable merchant families and political affluence prevalent. Over centuries as their power waned, the sites became fishing hamlets and subsequently now tourism destinations due to the scenic beauty of their natural landscapes. These mostly quaint municipalities are: Amalfi, Atrani, Cetara, Conca de' Marini, Furore, Maiori, Minori, Positano, Praiano, Ravello, Scala, Tramonti, and Vietri sul Mare. Many are located along the water, others like Ravello, Tramonti, and Furore, are perched on the slopes of the Lattari Mountains, and to reach them you need to take public or private transport up the winding and narrow cliffside roads. Personally, my recommendation is to pass on driving yourself, unless you like tackling these types of harrowing driving terrains. Parking is not easy to find and many town centers are pedestrian only so you have to get out and walk anyways. For the coastside towns, travel by ferry is a more convenient and lovely way to see the waterfronts and mountains. The unique topography of the cliffside towns led to cultivation of lemons, citrus and vineyards, which have become synonymous with the region, and during the warmer months you will see citrus and especially lemons everywhere! EVERYWHERE. Walking down the street in Sorrento, after a whiff of motorcycle engine exhaust, the breeze carries a lemon scent when you walk close to one of what feels like hundreds of lemon orchards - in public parks, private gardens and sometimes just randomly along the street. Shops carry fresh lemons the size of grapefruits and I even saw one the size of my head (no exaggeration, see pic!) and every type of lemon souvenir you could imagine under the sun, edible and non-edible. Of course local cuisine incorporates lemons into their dishes too! Amazing food can be enjoyed at many restaurants here, though I've mentioned in separate reviews, these will be pricier than your average Italian city/town. You certainly pay for the views and there's a never-ending slew of spots to catch a breathtaking panorama. And speaking of a panoramic views, if you're into hiking, Il Sentiero degli Dei (the Path of the Gods) is a moderate trail that winds around the higher vantage points connecting Agerola to Positano, with...you guessed it...stellar viewpoints along the way.

Luigi was also an excellent cook, the dishes were all wonderful and so fresh, and created (and imagined) on the spot! The ricotta with lemon zest was out of this world.

I enjoy finding hidden places, traveling like a local in cities, and generally immersing myself in a place. I do look for advice--from friends, local residents, and my amazing travel agent. I am not a cruise person, but I found myself on a cruise in Europe with family. 8 ports in 10 days...if you want the sampler platter of the Continent, not a bad way to go. Problem: How to do more than stop in a city and check a box? This is where Amalfi Coast Destination came in. I had never been on a private tour by car before, and though I've done a number since, this was the best experience I (or my family) has had. Roberto is an amazing guide and driver. He's from the Amalfi Coast and knows just about everyone. We even ran into his father in Ravello. He gives you access to a lot of places that the tour buses won't stop at. And completely customized to your needs--we wanted to throw Pompeii into the mix and were able to do so without being rushed. The highlights: *Touristy stuff: A boat ride through a grotto, and a little miniature of a town *Shopping in Amalfi *Breathtaking views and photo stops the whole way--including a posh hotel not open to random tourists *Wandering the square of Ravello *The most amazing meal ever: balcony view down the gorge to the Med at Ristorante San Giovanni, a rustic hand crafted meal. Roberto even brought the limoncello. *Pompeii Dock to dock service in a comfortable Mercedes mini-van that could easily accommodate 6. It was a memorable day with family, one we will never forget. If you are headed to the Amalfi Coast this is the way to go: in style.

Here are a few things you might find helpful: We were in the 8:30 departure. You're first stop is Capri where you'll be dropped off. Our return time to the marina was 1:30. So there's time to go to the top if you're smart and go right away. We went to Capri town and while the gardens were worthwhile, the high end shops were just that. And got crowded as the day progressed. Our friends went to Anacapri and took the chair lift to the top and LOVED it. In retrospect that would have been a better choice for us. Make sure you leave time to get back down because there will be lines, maybe long ones. Our group chose not to do the Blue Grotto. They do that after we return so this is something to discuss beforehand, as the time you WILL wait in line for that (1.5 hours had we done it) will cut into the magic that was ahead. Then we went around the island into the little grottos and they even took fun pictures. Then we swam! It was GORGEOUS!!! It's chilly but DO IT. The water is turquoise and truly magical. Antonio and the Captain were fabulous. They made it SO fun, adding a few surprises that I won't reveal . The time in the boat was the BEST! DO IT!!!!!!
