Amalfi Coast drive with Ravello, Amalfi&Positano stop day-trip from Rome

Enjoy a day-trip to Amalfi Coast, deemed an outstanding example of a Mediterranean landscape by Unesco. Here, mountains plunge into the sea in a nail-biting vertical scene of precipitous crags, cliff-clinging abodes and verdant woodland. Travel in an air-conditioned Mercedes minivan which ensure an intimate experience and most of all it is the easier way to navigate the twisting narrow hir-pin coastal roads of this stunning  location in Southern Italy. You visit Ravello, set like an eagle's nest above the dizzying landscape of the coast, Amalfi, which was the first of the Four Maritime Republics of Italy and for a long time had the monopoly of trade with the East. Eventually you stop at the gem of the area: Positano,  with vertiginous houses tumbling down to the sea in a cascade of sun-bleached peach, pink and terracotta. No less colourful are its steep streets and steps, flanked by wisteria-draped hotels, smart restaurants and fashionable retailers.
