About 400 steps down to get to Atrani lovely little square surrounded by shops, bars, restaurants with outdoor seating and to the beach front. Once in Atrani it is possible to walk to Amalfi in 10 minutes.Tips : Usually guests walk down to Atrani / Amalfi and then catch the bus back to the property.The main bus terminal is Amalfi, where all the buses arrive and depart from here, connecting with Positano, Sorrento, Ravello, Salerno, Naples.From the docks in Amalfi you will also be able to board ferries and hydrofoils to Positano, Capri, Salerno or Sorrento Coast and Naples, as well as go on mini-cruises for tourists. You must indeed take a tour of the coast from the sea.If you are fond of archaeology, Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum are easily within reach, between 1 to 2 hours driving distance.How to get thereThere are several ways to get to Atrani, Amalfi Coast from Naples Capodichino Airport or Naples / Salerno Train station either by renting a car or by public transport, but it can be a little complicated for first time visitors. Knowing the options and making your travel plans in advance will start your trip to Amalfi Coast off on the right foot.The property is located 27 km (16 miles) west of Salerno and 60 km (37 miles) southeast of Naples.From Naples Capodichino Airport to Atrani/Giglio apartment is about a 90 minute drive.By Public transport all depends on your arrival time at the airport/train station. See which option (Bus or Ferry) will suit you best.The easiest (and least stressful!) way to reach any destination on the Amalfi Coast from Naples airport or train station is to hire a taxi for a private transfer. While it might seem an extravagant expense, the advantages far outweigh the cost.Since public transportation on the Amalfi Coast is easy to use and affordable and parking is expensive and very limited, renting a car is not recommended in general.Please note: Our limousines and minivans will only drive you to the main gate of the complex, from there to your apartment, you will need to walk down between 100 m. and 300 m.Once at the property you can get around fine without the car as parking in the towns is hard to come by and expensive. Public Buses operate year-around connecting Ravello to Amalfi, where are buses to all the Amalfi Coast villages and Sorrento area. Ferries (from May to October) operate a service between Amalfi - Positano - Sorrento - Capri Island - Naples and Salerno.
