🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Find train tickets →Napoli Centrale (Garibaldi bus stop) → Positano (Sponda or Chiesa Nuova stop)
💡 Buy tickets at the tabacchi shop inside the station, not from the driver. Ask the driver to stop at 'La Tavolozza' — it's a short walk downhill from the Chiesa Nuova stop, but save yourself the hike up.
Naples International Airport (NAP) → Residence La Tavolozza, Positano
💡 Book a shared shuttle through Positano Shuttle or Grassi for about €60 per person instead. The drive along the Amalfi Coast is spectacular, so ask for a front seat if you can.
Naples Centrale Station → Sorrento station, then SITA bus to Positano (Sponda stop)
💡 Buy a combined ticket from the Sorrento tabacchi — the bus from Sorrento to Positano is packed in summer, so grab a seat early. For Residence La Tavolozza, get off at Sponda stop and walk down the steps — it's steep but saves the 500-metre uphill from Chiesa Nuova.
Naples Molo Beverello (ferry port) → Positano piers (Sporthus or La Porta)
💡 The ferry drops you right at Positano's beach — a 10-minute walk up steps to Residence La Tavolozza. It's worth it for the sea views alone. Verify timetables with Caremar or NLG on the day; they change monthly.
