What our customers ask about Self-Guided Tours & Trips in Amalfi Coast
What are the best months to take a self-guided tour of the Amalfi Coast?
The Amalfi Coast welcomes visitors best from April through October. September and October stand out as particularly good months with pleasant temperatures and smaller crowds at popular spots like Positano and Amalfi. The weather during these months stays comfortable for outdoor activities with temperatures ranging from 65-75°F making it perfect for walks like the Path of the Gods. Places such as Hotel Villa Fraulo in Ravello offer clear views across the coast during this period. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "We had a wonderful trip in late September - it was just perfect for us and everyone who took care of us did a fantastic job."
How difficult are the walking trails for self-guided tours on the Amalfi Coast?
Most trails take 4-5 hours daily at a steady pace of 3-4km per hour with difficulty levels ranging from easy walks to moderate hikes. The well-known Path of the Gods between Bomerano and Positano includes about 2,000 steps along with sea views. Trails through Valle dei Mulini to Ravello climb about 640 meters while the Praiano to Positano route follows cliffside paths. As one TourRadar traveler noted "The walks were challenging but rewarding with breathtaking views of the coastline from Monte Tre Calli."

The accommodations focus on 3 to 4-star hotels placed in central locations that blend local character with modern comfort.

How do luggage transfers work between towns on the Amalfi Coast?
The luggage service runs smoothly with morning pickup around 9am and delivery to your next hotel by late afternoon. You walk with just a daypack while your bags move separately. When guests travel from Ravello's Hotel Villa Fraulo to Positano's Hotel l'Ancora their luggage arrives ahead of them as they walk the Path of the Gods. A TourRadar reviewer mentioned: "The arrangements were faultless. All transfers and pick up times were good."

The coast offers a network of SITA buses ferries (running April to October) and local trains. Buses connect main towns like Amalfi Positano and Ravello regularly.

As one TourRadar traveler mentioned "The combination of pre-arranged transfers and public transportation worked seamlessly - we particularly enjoyed taking the ferry from Amalfi to Positano for different coastal perspectives."
