# Positano & Amalfi Small Group Boat Tour from Rome with Fast Train

**Guidekin's take:** The Amalfi Coast from the water: high speed train from Rome, then a boat for twelve with a skipper along the cliffs to Positano and Amalfi, with swim stops and a happy hour on board. Train, transfers, drinks and snacks are included at €329 per person. Snorkel gear and a small docking fee are paid on the spot, and bad weather means a new date or a refund.

## Overview

Hop on a high speed train from Rome and get ready to discover the amazing Amalfi Coast. A delightful sea ride, on board of a comfortable boat with a small group of 12 passengers, is the best way to admire the show that the coast offers: the sea and the mountain meet each other, creating a breath-taking landscape. You can explore the beautiful towns of Positano and Amalfi, swimming and snorkelling, and relax with a happy hour on the boat at the end of the day. What else? We are waiting for you!
