ADVICE

Getting To Amalfi From Rome

  • Take the train from Rome to Napoli Centrale then the Circumvesuviana to Sorrento or book a private transfer from Naples for comfort.
  • Expect the Circumvesuviana to be crowded, hot, and sometimes standing-room only.
ADVICE

What To Pack For Amalfi

  • Pack light summer clothes, comfortable walking shoes, sandals, reef-safe sunscreen, sun hats, and consider a handheld fan.
  • Prioritize breathable outfits and beach items because summer on the Amalfi Coast gets very hot.
ADVICE

Choose Shoulder Seasons

  • Avoid peak summer; visit during shoulder seasons like April–May or late September–October for better weather and fewer crowds.
  • You'll find lower prices, more open services, and a more pleasant experience outside high summer.
