Frequently Asked Questions about travel to Positano
What are prices like in Positano?
Positano is one of the most expensive towns on the Amalfi Coast. Meals at restaurants can range from €30 to €60 per person, depending on the establishment and location. For attractions, prices generally range from €10 to €20. Public transportation, such as buses, typically costs around €2-€4 for a single ride. Overall, Positano offers a stunning experience but can be quite costly, especially during peak tourist season.
How can I get around Positano?
The best (and sometimes only) way to explore Positano is by foot. The town is built on steep hills, with narrow alleys and stairs that wind through the buildings, making it ideal for walking. Exploring on foot allows you to truly experience the charm of Positano, from its quaint shops to its beautiful views. Due to the terrain, there aren't many cars, and public transportation is limited, so walking is the most practical and enjoyable way to get around.
Is Positano safe?
Positano is generally safe for visitors. Like most tourist destinations, it’s important to take the usual precautions, especially in busy areas where pickpocketing can occur. The town has a low crime rate, and the local community is welcoming and friendly. It's a peaceful place, but it’s always a good idea to stay aware of your surroundings.
Does Positano have options for people with dietary restrictions?
Positano has increasingly more options for people with dietary restrictions and intolerances. Many restaurants offer gluten-free pizza and pasta, and you'll also find a variety of vegetarian options in most places. To ensure your needs are met, it’s a good idea to inform the staff when you arrive, and they will be happy to suggest suitable dishes or make adjustments to accommodate any allergies or restrictions you may have.
How long should I stay in Positano?
We recommend spending at least two nights in Positano to fully enjoy the town and take a boat trip to a nearby island like Capri. Consider adding a third night to allow time for a day trip to explore more of the Amalfi Coast.
