Practical tips
Positano has several stops along the main coastal road, and they are not all in the same place. Confirm the exact boarding point for your service before you walk down with your luggage, so you do not miss the bus.
In summer, buses on the Amalfi Coast fill up quickly and you can be left at the roadside. Booking online in advance gives you a confirmed seat and avoids paying more or losing time on the day.
Naples has several key points: the central railway station, the ferry terminals at the port such as Molo Beverello and Calata Porta di Massa, and bus areas. Check which one you need next so you do not end up in the wrong place.
The coastal road offers the best views from the sea side. If you are prone to motion sickness, sit near the front and have a light snack beforehand, as the road has many bends.
Coastal traffic can slow the bus, especially in summer. If you have a high-speed train, flight or ferry after arriving in Naples, choose an earlier departure so a delay does not cost you a more expensive last-minute ticket.
The journey experience
Getting from Positano to Naples is a classic Amalfi Coast problem: there is no train on this stretch, so the question is not train versus coach but how to make the bus journey as smooth as possible. The good news is that the road option is simple, and you can see current durations and prices directly on this page.
The bus follows the coastal road, with sweeping sea views on one side and plenty of bends, so a seat on the sea side is worth aiming for if you like the scenery. Services on the Amalfi Coast are run by regional bus companies, and the vehicles are coaches built for winding roads. Luggage space can be limited in peak season, so travelling light helps. Depending on the service, you may need to change at a hub town along the way before continuing towards Naples.
Your best approach is to check the departure point before you go, arrive a little early and avoid leaving the trip to the last minute in high season, when buses fill up and you could be left waiting. If you need to catch a train, flight or ferry in Naples afterwards, leave a generous margin and confirm which station or port you are heading to. With a bit of planning, this trip is straightforward and stress-free.

How long to visit Naples?
Plan 3 to 4 days in Naples: it's long enough to cover the historic centre, the National Archaeological Museum, Spaccanapoli and the street food scene at a relaxed pace. With 2 days, stick to the centre and the museum, plus Pompeii or Herculaneum as a half-day trip. With 4 days or more, add Vesuvius, Capri or the Amalfi Coast; book Pompeii tickets online and use the Circumvesuviana train rather than a tour.
