    Once you arrive in Salerno, you have a couple of options.

    You can either have the hotel arrange a Taxi for you or you can take one right outside of the station. Please make sure you set a price with the driver before jumping into the taxi.

    This will cost you approx 150 - 170 Euros and it will take you from 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on the traffic.

    The other option is, as soon as you get off the Salerno Train Station, you walk outside all the way straight maybe 5 minutes and take a Ferry to Minori. Please note that there is a long line for the ferry. It is important that you buy this with anticipation.

    Ferry Details:

    Once you are in Minori, you can get to Ravello by Taxi!

    Taxi to Marmorata will cost you around 50 euros, and Taxi up to Ravello 70 euros. And it will take you from 15-20 minutes to get up to Ravello and 5-10 minutes to Hotel Marmorata.

    FROM NAPLES:

    Once you arrive to Naples Airport, or MAIN Train Station (Napoli Centrale). You can take a take a taxi directly to Marmorata and Ravello. This will cost you around 150 - 170 euros. This will take you around 1 hour and a half to an hour and 45 minutes.

    Just as a side note there is another new train station named Afragola. So the taxi may be more expensive.

    A budget friendly option:

    Please consider all this options will take you much more time. From Napoli Airport to Ravello, you would need to take a Train to Salerno, then take the Ferry from Salerno to Minori and then from Minori take Taxi to Marmorata/Ravello.

    Napoli Airport to Napoli Centrale: 16 - 25 euros.

    Napoli Centrale - Salerno Train Station: 16 - 20 euros. Duration: 40 min - 1 hour.

    Taxi Minori - Marmorata/Ravello: 50 - 70 euros. Duration: 15 - 20 min.

    OR you can take the Bus as well:

    From Salerno Train Station, exit the station and head to Piazza Vittorio Veneto, which is right in front of the station.

    The SITA bus stop is located on Via Vinciprova, a 10-15 minute walk from the train station. You can either walk there or take a short taxi ride.

    Look for signs for SITA buses. You’ll want the bus heading towards *Amalfi*.

    There may be multiple SITA buses, so make sure to confirm with the driver or check the sign on the bus that it's heading to Amalfi. It will take you around 1 hour and 20 minutes to get to Amalfi.

    Once you reach Amalfi, you will need to transfer to another SITA bus to Ravello. This will take you around 25 minutes.

    *Schedules*

    The SITA buses from Salerno to Amalfi typically run every 30-60 minutes.

    It's recommended to check the SITA bus schedule in advance, as they can vary by season. You can find the schedules posted at the bus stops or on the SITA Sud website.

    https://sitasudtrasporti.it/

    *Tickets*

    You can buy bus tickets at tobacco shops (Tabacchi) or newsstands near the train station.

    Tickets are not sold on the bus, so make sure you have one before boarding.

    A one-way ticket from Salerno to Amalfi costs around €3-4.

  • The Amalfi Coast is a stretch of coastline along the southern edge of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula, in the Campania region. It’s a popular holiday destination, with sheer cliffs and a rugged shoreline dotted with small beaches and pastel-colored fishing villages. The coastal road between the port city of Salerno and clifftop Sorrento winds past grand villas, terraced vineyards and cliffside lemon groves.

    If you are staying at Hotel Marmorata, this is quite easy as they offer a shuttle service to Ravello, Amalfi and Minori.

    If you are staying in Ravello or somewhere else, of course the easiest way is by taxi. But you might spend 50-70 euros per transfer. The SITA Bus, is a great option to travel also around the coast. For more information please visit their website: https://sitasudtrasporti.it/

  • The Salerno Costa d'Amalfi Airport is the most proximal airport to the coast, however, it is a brand new, local airport.

    We recommend to either fly to Rome (FIUMICINO) or the Naples International Airport (Napoli-Capodichino) which serves the main international gateway airport to reach the area from abroad. 

    Notes:

    • Prices and availability are subject to change based on booking dates and time of travel.

    • Check current schedules and prices for trains and ferries closer to your travel date.

    • Consider booking flights and accommodations in advance to get the best deals.

    • Uber is not available in that region.

A 3-Star hotel with nearly perfect reviews, we’ve seen the prices on this hotel get as low as $100, but you’ll have to get them quickly.

Located in the heart of Ravello, it’s up on the mountain and requires some walking to get to (you can’t drive in the heart of the town). With its small, cute feel paired with it’s incredible views you can’t go wrong with this one. There are plenty of boutique shops and good resturants nearby to give you plenty of things to do before the wedding.

Caruso Belmond

Varies

Caruso Belmond is top of the line in both quality and price. You’ll be wowed immediately by the lobby and customer service. Remember how we said cars aren’t allowed in Ravello? Well Caruso has their own private drive. If you are looking to ball out on this trip, Caruso is the way to go.

Hotel Villa Froulo

Every room in Villa Froulo comes with a balcony overlooking the Mediterranean Sea from up on Ravello. For the price, it doesn’t get much better than this. But, they don’t have many rooms, so get them while you can!
