Drinks, snacks, towels and mooring fees are covered; lunch and the Emerald Grotto ticket are not. 4.82 from 179 reviews at €179 per person.

From the guide

A boat trip is the perfect way to discover the beauty and hidden charms of the Amalfi Coast in one day. The tour starts at Amalfi pier at 9:30 with a small group of max 12 people. Aboard our traditional italian gozzo, you’ll cruise past Atrani with its Marmorata waterfalls, the Arch of Amalfi, Conca dei Marini with its historic tower, the magical Grotta dello Smeraldo (ticket not included, €10 per person), the Fiordo di Furore, and the charming Marina di Praia.

A delightful lunch stop at La Gavitella in Praiano offers local dishes, sea views, and a relaxing atmosphere. After lunch, continue to Positano, with 1 hour of free time to wander its alleys, browse boutiques, and admire monuments like the Roman Villa and Church of Santa Maria Assunta.

The return cruise includes a refreshing swim and snorkel stop in the crystal-clear waters. On board, enjoy water, soft drinks, prosecco, local limoncello from Amalfi lemons, and a colorful fruit skewer, making the experience unforgettable.
