Guides such as Carolina, Giuseppe, Alberto, and Luigi handle the winding roads while you stop in Sorrento, Positano, Praiano, Amalfi, and the Emerald Grotto for views, food, shopping, and local stories.

“Excellent day with Caroline, Giuseppe, and Luigi. Vespas are the only way to see the amalfi coast. Caroline called it skip the line when we were able to cruise past a backup of cars and weave through the traffic. There were three in our party and each of us rode on the back of the Vespa. It made for a fun and exciting adventure without the stress of navigating the busy roads as a novice scooter driver. And of course the views are spectacular. We were picked up at our hotel in positano and stopped in amalfi, ravello (highlight) for lunch and a couple of areas of interest along the…”

Alberto and Emilio made us feel at ease from the start, and interacted with us both through the journey, giving us interesting facts about places along the coast as well as the history of the area. We stopped as a number of places along the route with Alberto giving us a personilsed tour of Amalfi Town and Revello, where we visited shops, famous landmarks and took pictures.

3.Scooter rental to visit the Amalfi Coast

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 53 reviews · 1 to 7 days (approx.) · from $116 per scooter (seats 2)

Pick up a scooter from Positano Scooter on Viale Pasitea and set your own route along the Amalfi Coast. Rentals run from one to seven days, with two helmets and liability insurance included. You need the proper license, solid scooter skills, and patience for narrow roads, buses, paid parking, and heavy summer traffic.

“Having a scooter in Positano is the way to go!! We rented our scooter for the 3 days we were there! We were able to go to Almalfi, Ravello, Sorrento and all over on our own time! Be careful where you park, we did get a ticket! Very hard to park even though all the other scooters are parked doesn't mean it's a good spot! LOL! Make sure you are experienced in riding and driving a scooter, can be pretty intense with the tiny streets, buses and other aggressive scooter riders! You need to have an international driving license for this company. We enjoyed having our own transportation!!”

We only stayed one night in Positano so we were looking for an activity that would allow us to see as much of the Amalfi Coast as possible. This tour far exceeded our expectations. The Amalfi Coast is beautiful and seeing it while riding a motorbike makes it something magical. The two guys who accompanied us were very kind and friendly. I absolutely recommend this experience, it will remain in my heart forever, everything was perfect. I take this opportunity to say hello to our riders! Greetings from Venice!Read more”

We got very lucky to avoid the rain (it was supposed to rain the day of the tour but thankfully the weather cleared up, and it was a beautiful day), and although February in the Amalfi Coast can be quite chilly, the views were still spectacular, and we were able to avoid the large crowds. Vickyse, my Vespa driver, was a pro, and navigated the narrow and sometimes busy streets with expert skill.”
