Positano is a dream destination on the Amalfi Coast. It’s a picturesque town, with colorful buildings clinging to cliffs above the sea and lemon groves around every turn. Its beauty also draws extreme crowds, so if you're looking for a relaxing getaway on the Amalfi coast, we'd suggest turning to the tiny town of Praiano, just a 15-minute drive away.

To get here, we often take a private car from Napoli train station or the airport. If you're already on the Amalfi Coast, we'd recommend taking a hydrofoil or private car. Your hotel can often help arrange transportation and has drivers they know and trust.
