Limousine Excursion from Naples to Amalfi, Grotta Smeraldo & Positano

An 8-hour excursion along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast in enough to turn the hardest, driest pragmatist into the most light-hearted, joyous romantic. The majestic sea cliffs and charming fishing villages due south of Naples tend have this effect on every visitor. Around every curve of this coastal road you find a new hidden treasure and spectacular Mediterranean vista. When visiting this area we will lead you through the rich and glorious history of the former Almafi Republic, medieval settlements and monuments, uniquely terraced vineyards, orchards and woods along precipitous mountainsides and contrasting with deep blue and turquoise waters of the wide open Mediterranean.

Amalfi

First, we will take you the picturesque city of Almalfi, which protrudes gently onto the seaside as it homes, arches and towers desperately cling to rocky cliffs above crashing sea. Almafi offers visitors postcard views and a mythically warm micro-climate year round. It is also known for its characteristic intimate coves and beaches, sparkling white homes. Such is the beauty of this little corner of paradise that Italians humorously say: "The day an inhabitant of Amalfi goes to heaven will be just like any other!"

Grotta Smeraldo

If you desire, we will take you to explore the nearby Emerald Cave ("Grotta dello Smeraldo"), a marine cave whose luminous green waters were discovered by a local fisherman in 1932. This dark stalactite-filled grotto offers a magical contrast with the emerald waters below. During the Christmas season, local scuba divers have the tradition of placing a white ceramic Nativity set along the cave's floor.

Positano

Afterward we will head toward the charming fishing village of Positano, now a favorite destination for painters, novelists, musicians and all artists alike. The town's narrow borgo is one the oldest Medieval settlements along the Amalfi coast. However the town's history dates far back to Roman times, as one can witness from the ruins of a 2nd century villa owned by the wealthy Posides Spado, after whom the town is now named. Postitano has never lost its charm over the centuries. Countless testimonies can be seen in the numerous famous paintings of the town's terraced, pastel-colored homes and sea below as well the various romantic ballads written by inspired poets around the world.
