I was there my self with a friend and I stayed a week and I traveled around and there is nothing not to like but is everything to love. And I would like and love to go back again. That is an amazing place to go and see.
Hi Bob! Wow thank you so much! Glad I could be of help. I have been going annually since 2019 and share my tips and insights from the perspective of a traveler who has an admiration for all things Italy especially the Amalfi Coast.
The cafe I mentioned in the video is actually called La Pergola, but Bucco Di Bacco is directly above it and has an ocean view. There is another restuantat in front of Le Pergola with ocean views as well.
With the quality of this video, I thought you had many more subs! I love it! Years ago I spun a globe and said wherever it lands is where I go on my Honeymoon. And it landed on Amalfi Coast/Positano . And I have been in love with it ever since!
I got my sandals made from the same place. They're amazing! Also, for restaurants, I suggest C'ero Una Volta. They're towards the top of the hill but they're very affordable and good.
What time did the transport stop? I’m wanting to stay in sorrento but will go to positano and want to be able to watch the sunset and get back to sorrento? X
I am looking for a hotel that is mainly only a few steps from the beach or main thoroughfare as too many steps will be hard on me . Can you recommend any that are not too high up? Thank you. Will await your response
Hello Dana - Have you used any drone for video or photo and Is there any restriction on using drone in Positano that you know? I will be there on the wee of 10/17. Thanks!
Loved your vlog - the tips and thorough explanations were extremely helpful. I'm planning on stopping by the sandal shop you mentioned in Positano AND I just ordered the Viscata wedges!
Love your review Dana. We were there in April and last April and watching the video brought back the memories. A little piece of heaven! The other amazing nearby place is Ravello.
Thank you for all of your Italy travel videos! You are so helpful and full of useful tips. So many vloggers your age are so full of themselves and have to pose constantly which is so annoying. We are heading to Italy next month for 4 amazing weeks, one whole week will be spent on the Amalfi coast, and we feel so much more prepared after watching all your videos! 😊
Is swimming possible in middle to late May in Positano? We are looking for travel in May to try and beat some of the crows but concerned it will be too chilly in general.
Thanks for your video. It was very informative. I will be staying two nights in Positano and two nights in Amalfi. Do you suggest I take a boat to Amalfi from Positano and if so, what will it cost and will they take my luggage? Thanks.
Yes that is the easiest and most scenic way to get to Positano. Once arrived in Positano you can have someone carry your luggage to your hotel! I am not sure the price however.
Hi Dana Can you tell me when is the best time of the month to go to Positano from mid-may upwards and which is the best cheap hotel to stay or another place to stay as me and my girlfriend are on a budget as we will be going next year 2020. I appreciate it for your help and time thank you.
Thank you for sharing. We leave May 12 for 4 days there. Pls tell us about some tours, like the olive tour, path of the gods, buffalo mozzarella tour, etc. Also, what is the best way to get private drivers to places from town? Thx Kathleen
If you didn’t have a budget and you wanted to book an Airbnb in an ideal location with amazing views and not exactly in the middle of the nightlife scene but 5-10 mins walking distance what’s specific area would you choose? I’m mainly looking for views where the sun sets.
There is one on the same street at Le Sirenuse. You can google it for yourself and it books out a year in advance and it sounds like it fits the description of what you are looking for. Have a lovely holiday!
Can you tell me anything about La Scalinatella staircase - which is the steep staircase down to the main beach. If by any chance you start point is La Sirenuse, how far down is the walk to the beach?
The walk from the Beach from La Sirenuse is hardly anything. I believe its one small set of stairs, then its a downward road right to the Church, then from there another small set of stairs!
Do you recommend to book the Blue Star boat ride in advance - or is it OK to go there at the stall and book? I find the website via trip advisor is confusing.
Valuable and well thought out video, thank you. Next year I'm planning on going to Positano on a family trip, I am vegan and was wondering if they have options there/what to expect.
HI! There aren't too many restaurants in Positano, however they have a nice place called Casa e Bottega that would be great option I know they will have selections.
Thanks for sharing! I'm heading to Italy for the first on a solo group travel tour at the end of Sept/Early Oct. Super excited! We'll start off in Venice then head to Florence and end in Rome. But I've extended my trip and extra 2 days as I really want to see the Amalfi Coast. So I was looking into maybe hiring a private driver to take me directly to the coast to catch a ferry to perhaps Capri and Positano. Only because I'm a little nervous about how to take the bus or train route from Rome to get to Positano. But I like the idea of the high speed train being the faster route..lol. I just don't want to be stressed over figuring out the transportation..lol!
Sorrento is a great base because you can travel to all the cities along the coast for day trips, including Capri/ Amalfi/ and Positano. I do believe Positano would be great to stay in for a few nights.
I am planning to go from Rome with a friend. Tossing between going by tour or going on our own way. So r u saying that we take express train to Naples then from Salerno another train and then a ferry. What would you recommend? Sorrento or Salerno? I really want to see Positano from the water, eat, drink, and go to the beach. How much would the transport would be? We are on a budget. Also in September, would the shops/restaurant be close for siesta? What time? Also do u have to pay for the beach access?
Thank you so much for making this video, so helpful!!! Going to Positano next month, could you plz tell which bus service to take from Naples Aiport to Sorrento?? How to book...Thank you 🥰
Joshna C Naples via Sorrento to Positano is ridiculous advice. Best advice: Rome or Naples to Salerno by train; Salerno to Positano (or any other Amalfi village) by ferry.
Elaine Blackhurst thank u! But i travelled in November and the ferry ride was stopped. So the advice above worked out well, took a train from Naples Airport to Sorrento, then bus to Positano.
Holly, tours start at about 300 euro with Grassiboatpositano.com , also a shared boat with a trip to Capri is amazing and is 85 euro PP. They take you halfway, let you swim in the Med, do the grottos, give you 4 hours on island, swim on the way back and disembark in positano centre.
My question - I want to spend quite some time there so I want to go to grocery stores and cook. What place can you recommend to stay (definitely budget friendly) where I can cook myself?
Good question! I would stay in Praino but if you want to stay in Positano stay closer to Fornillo but honestly the people I know that live there find the best prices for groceries is in Sorrento about 40 minutes away.
Hi Theresea, From Florence, I would check flights to Naples ( or train, which may be a long journey) Once in Naples you can take the Ferry to Sorrento, then the SITA bus to Positano.
love this! so informative! just wondering how pricey it is to rent a bot even for just an hour or so to ride around the coast, see positano from the water and maybe jump in for a dip! im arriving from private car from the train station and want to experience seeing the village as a whole from far away! also from Le Sirenuse - couldn't make reservations as it was full but I heard you can just walk in and take photos from the terrace? can't wait to hear back from you!
Hi Laura! The sandals were 75E but you can find other shops for 60E. The boat can range from pricing per person I believe 90E. But I would email Elisabeth at info@bluestarpositano.it for the best quote!
You are going to love it. Franco's bar runs as a first come first serve basis and the line begins to form before it opens. If you want a seat in front I would head over there at 4:30. Sounds ridiculous but those front seats are hard to come by. I went around 5:30/6 and there was a line to get in even until I left. To get to Fornillo you can follow the passageway from the Spaggia Grande. Right next to Covo Hotel.
loved your video dana..thanks!! im going in september and im so excited, dream come true. can i ask how much the private tour cost? and for how long? this will be very helpul
Hi Karolina, I am so glad you enjoyed! The prices vary from private to group tours, they will quote you once you email in/ depending on high/low season.
I did! besides the circumvesuvia train. It is best to map out what your plan to do before hand. Once landed you might have limited cell service, and end up not knowing how to get to point B without getting ripped off.
Positano is definitely expensive. Its expensive for a reason, it’s more beautiful than Sorrento even the locals will tell you this. But I recommend people do what’s best for their budget. I personally always stay in Positano because I like Positano better. Also it’s best to book in advance many things are already booked in Positano this year.
We got married at the Poseidon in 2012 and go back every year for our anniversary. FINALLY a video that captures Positano correctly. Very well done! Subbed
Hey love! I was hoping you could expand on the travel from Rome to Positano a little more. Which high speed train to get on etc.. thank you ❤️❤️ I’ll be visiting in a little over a month for the first time
So exciting! So from Rome there are multiple ways you can get to Positano. But you'll need to get to Naples first. Step 1. Take the Italia Rail train from Rome to Naples. From Naples you can take 3 Options: 1. A ferry to Sorrento (most expensive)2. The Circumvesuvia Train to Sorrento (cheap, but a little sketchy at night) 3. A Direct bus to Sorrento (my fave option, but bus stops service at 7pm) From Sorrento you have to take the SITA bus to Positano. OR You can take the Italia Rail train from Rome to Salerno (transfer in Naples) From Salerno you'll take a ferry to Postiano.
I booked my boat in advance, however due to unpredictable weather it was moved around while we were there. But the communication with Blue star was very clear and accommodating with our schedule.
Hi there! Thank you very much for your video, good tips! I was wondering what month you went there? We at planning to go in beginning of April. I checked the weather in April and average is +19-21 is that true? Also is that the good idea to rent the car from Rome to Sorrento, Positano, Capri? These are the places we are planning to go. Thank you very much in advance.Lana
I went in early May and the weather was beautiful. It wasn't that warm to lay out in the sun, but comfortable enough that you didn't need a jacket. The season starts in Postiano after Easter so later April would be a nice time to visit, but don't expect it to be to hot. You could rent a car, however parking and driving is tight especially in Positano. We ended up taking a train to Sorrento, then took the SITA bus to Positano. For Capri, you can take the ferry from any town on the Amalfi Coast for a day trip. I also have a video on Capri as well! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
I will be there in a day trip from Rome I’m renting a car and drive from Rome. My trip is in August I knows is high season but do you know if there is enough Parking spaces. TIA 🤗
Hello! My friend and I are going in June, so peak season I know oops. Anyways, would you say renting the vespa or a boat for the day is a better experience?
At least the weather will be BEAUTIFUL! Both will be so much fun. Depending how comfortable you are driving a Vespa on the windy road of the Amalfi Coast. I didn't rent the Vespa, but I would love to. The boat will also be so memorable, but cost more. Either way it will be awesome.
love how she show the things and not only herself
Thank you for your feedback!
I was there my self with a friend and I stayed a week and I traveled around and there is nothing not to like but is everything to love. And I would like and love to go back again. That is an amazing place to go and see.
thanks dana super helpful tips I will be using!
Wonderful summary for our trip coming up there! Probably the best Positano videos on UA-cam!
Hi Bob! Wow thank you so much! Glad I could be of help. I have been going annually since 2019 and share my tips and insights from the perspective of a traveler who has an admiration for all things Italy especially the Amalfi Coast.
Thanks for sharing your experience.. a saw a couple videos and yours is the best to me... We planning go Amalfi coast in May next year.
Thank you so much! you are going to love it!
Is Bucco di Bacco attached to the restaurant and does it overlook the ocean?
The cafe I mentioned in the video is actually called La Pergola, but Bucco Di Bacco is directly above it and has an ocean view. There is another restuantat in front of Le Pergola with ocean views as well.
With the quality of this video, I thought you had many more subs! I love it! Years ago I spun a globe and said wherever it lands is where I go on my Honeymoon. And it landed on Amalfi Coast/Positano
. And I have been in love with it ever since!
ah thank you so much. You landed on the PERFECT destination. I am also obsessed I go back every year

Wow thank you for the recommendation! I am hoping to go to Positano again this year, but flight has been canceled!
@@DanaBerez Hopefully you'll get to go. I usually go every April, so I may have to wait until next year. ☹️
What time did the transport stop? I’m wanting to stay in sorrento but will go to positano and want to be able to watch the sunset and get back to sorrento? X
Thanks for the tips! Do you know much the boat hires were roughly?
To Capri it was 19 euros each way.
Your videos are si helpful) thank you very mich🤗
Very useful & unpretentious guide, great job and thank you!
Thank you! So glad you found it helpful!
I am looking for a hotel that is mainly only a few steps from the beach or main thoroughfare as too many steps will be hard on me . Can you recommend any that are not too high up? Thank you. Will await your response
Hotel Buca Di Baco or Palazzo Murat
Hi Dana, I have been binge watching your travel videos. You do such an amazing job vlogging. Thank you so much for all of your hard work. 😊
Travel videos to inform about a place should be like yours. Great! 👍
Thank you so much!
I love this video! please do more when you travel! its so needed!
Yes! I am working on a whole NYC series as well!
This is great. I’m studying abroad in Milan so I’m planning to go to Positano while I’m there.
IT is a must visit! I am obsessed with Postiano!
Thank you for this video! How far walking distance would you say Venus Inn is from Le Sirenuse restaurant?
15-20 mins. Not gonna lie, It’s quite a walk
Hello Dana - Have you used any drone for video or photo and Is there any restriction on using drone in Positano that you know? I will be there on the wee of 10/17. Thanks!

Bluestar Positano is the best company and I always go with Elizabeth who owns the company with her family.
Loved your vlog - the tips and thorough explanations were extremely helpful. I'm planning on stopping by the sandal shop you mentioned in Positano AND I just ordered the Viscata wedges!
I am so glad you found the video helpful! You'll love the Viscata Wedges and of course the Sandals as well!

Hi was wondering if positano would be fun for a solo traveller? Or are there mostly families and couples?
Where're you taking the ferry from Naples to positano? is there a website
There is none from Naples to Positano, that I am aware of but there is one from Naples to Sorrento.
@@DanaBerez thanks a lot
Hey! Did you ride your vespa to Almafi from Positano?
I actually never rented one, but it is an option! I may this year when I go again
Is swimming possible in middle to late May in Positano? We are looking for travel in May to try and beat some of the crows but concerned it will be too chilly in general.
No, it will be chilly. But it’s warm during the day and less crowded
Quick question … what is needed to rent a Vespa ?
This was legit helpful. Thanks!
Thank you so much!! I am glad you found it useful

Hey NEW SUBSCRIBER here...
Question::: what phone service are you using there and witch Italian cell phone service works in Positano?
Thank you We are going there in October- Still deciding where we are staying- Sorento- Salermo or Positano?
Sorrento is a great base because you can travel to all the cities along the coast for day trips, including Capri/ Amalfi/ and Positano. I do believe Positano would be great to stay in for a few nights.
Casa Cosenza!
I am planning to go from Rome with a friend. Tossing between going by tour or going on our own way.

Naples to Sorrento. You go by transvesuviana/train
Joshna C Naples via Sorrento to Positano is ridiculous advice.
Best advice: Rome or Naples to Salerno by train; Salerno to Positano (or any other Amalfi village) by ferry.
Elaine Blackhurst thank u! But i travelled in November and the ferry ride was stopped. So the advice above worked out well, took a train from Naples Airport to Sorrento, then bus to Positano.

@@DanaBerez Thank you!
Did you feel safe at night after drinks and how did you get back to the place you stayed at?(walking, car, etc..)
Absolutely! One of the safest places I have been to.
In positano for couple eating cheapest foods on Menu we spent 100/150€ per day and we not ever ordered alcohol or desert
Hi im going to positano next month, do i need to make a reservation for francos bar? And also how do i get to fornillo beach? Thank you!!
You are going to love it. Franco's bar runs as a first come first serve basis and the line begins to form before it opens. If you want a seat in front I would head over there at 4:30.

Hi Karolina,
I am so glad you enjoyed! The prices vary from private to group tours, they will quote you once you email in/ depending on high/low season.
I just posted a vlog about the Alamfi coast, including Positano. Check it out for more tips about spots to visit :) I was there in September too.
Also I would like to see Mt Vesuvius. Do u see it when u go to Salerno?
Mentrik Tjen Vesuvius is closer to Naples, so if you want to see/hike it then you would have to go towards Naples (take a train or drive)
We’re going next week! Thank you so much for this video ❤️
You are going to love it!
How was it any recommendations?
Well Done! Thank you!
Thank you!
Such a helpful video! I'm going to Positano in June, did you book your transportation to Positano beforehand or once you got to Italy? Thank you!
I did! besides the circumvesuvia train. It is best to map out what your plan to do before hand. Once landed you might have limited cell service, and end up not knowing how to get to point B without getting ripped off.
How much did the sandals cost? How long did you have to wait for them to be made?
Hi,
Are the hotels near to the beaches and the city center?
There a hotels located all over, however the ones near the beach are much more expensive.
Some people say Positano is expensive to stay , better Sorrento. What do you say? I will have to find another hotel , as yours is booked, Thanks
Positano is definitely expensive. Its expensive for a reason, it’s more beautiful than Sorrento even the locals will tell you this. But I recommend people do what’s best for their budget.

I checked the weather in April and average is +19-21 is that true? Also is that the good idea to rent the car from Rome to Sorrento, Positano, Capri? These are the places we are planning to go. Thank you very much in advance.Lana
I went in early May and the weather was beautiful. It wasn't that warm to lay out in the sun, but comfortable enough that you didn't need a jacket. The season starts in Postiano after Easter so later April would be a nice time to visit, but don't expect it to be to hot. You could rent a car, however parking and driving is tight especially in Positano. We ended up taking a train to Sorrento, then took the SITA bus to Positano. For Capri, you can take the ferry from any town on the Amalfi Coast for a day trip. I also have a video on Capri as well! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
Loved it. I am planning to visit in month of November is it worth it?
It will be a bit colder, but anytime is worth it! Many places are still open at that time.
@@DanaBerez thank you ❤
Great video
Great video, were you ever nervous with the drivig and the roads?
Thank you! I wasn't nervous on the bus ride to positano, but the views were pretty awesome!!
I will be there in a day trip from Rome I’m renting a car and drive from Rome. My trip is in August I knows is high season but do you know if there is enough Parking spaces. TIA 🤗
Oh, I am not very familiar with parking just because I never rented a car there. I know parking is limited so when you see a spot take it!
Hello! My friend and I are going in June, so peak season I know oops. Anyways, would you say renting the vespa or a boat for the day is a better experience?
At least the weather will be BEAUTIFUL! Both will be so much fun. Depending how comfortable you are driving a Vespa on the windy road of the Amalfi Coast. I didn't rent the Vespa, but I would love to. The boat will also be so memorable, but cost more. Either way it will be awesome.
@@DanaBerez Thank you!!
How do I get a water taxi to a restaurant?
If you want to go to Da Adolfo you'll have to arrange a reservation. Or ask them at the Pier on the Spaggia Grande
Is November good time to be there ?
It will be a bit chilly, but you could probably find a better deal on a hotel as it would be low season
