Self-guided rail and ferry journey through Italy's Amalfi Coast, Naples to Salerno.

Illustration of Amalfi Coast: 2 Weeks

Euroventure's Amalfi Coast self-guided holiday gives you two weeks to explore five coastal destinations at your own pace. Starting in Naples, you take short train and ferry journeys to Sorrento, Capri, Positano, Amalfi and Salerno before returning to Naples. All train tickets and accommodation in centrally located hotels are booked for you; you move between them independently using detailed directions and a personalised travel pack. Days 1 through 7 include Pompeii, the Blue Grotto in Capri and the Path of the Gods hiking trail. Days 8 through 11 focus on Amalfi and its cathedral, Paper Museum and nature reserve. This package suits couples, independent travellers new to rail journeys, and history enthusiasts. With 24-hour emergency support and travel disruption insurance included, you have the structure of a guided tour with the freedom to set your own itinerary.
