Start early and plan for a long day
This is a full-day tour (about 14–15 hours round trip) — charge devices, bring snacks, and prepare for several hours on the coach.
Bring seasickness remedies if you choose the cruise
The coastal ferry is smooth in calm weather but can be choppy; tablets or wristbands help ensure you enjoy sea views and photo stops.
Wear sturdy shoes for steep, cobbled streets
Positano and Amalfi have uneven steps and narrow lanes — supportive, grippy footwear makes exploring safer and more comfortable.
Carry small change and a copy of your schedule
Local shops and cafes may prefer cash for tiny purchases; keep your return meeting time handy to avoid missing the coach.
Comfortable walking shoes
Grippy shoes are necessary for cobbles, stairways, and short hikes to viewpoints.
Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, SPF)
Open terraces and boat decks offer little shade during peak sun.
