Which is the best and fastest way to get to Positano from Rome?<BR>1. Rome to Salerno (via Naples), then SITA to Amalfi, then Positano?<BR>Or<BR>2. Rome to Naples, regional train to Sorrento, SITA to Positano?<BR>Thanks<BR>

Hi Sue!<BR><BR>I believe it's option #2. What do I win?

You get to pay my way!

Hell Sue,<BR><BR>In high season there's a hydrofoil service from Naples (Mergellina) to Positano which takes 45 mins. This is actually the quickest.<BR><BR>Steve

Sue,<BR>maybe choosing a fast train (Eurostar) from Rome to Salerno, the best solution is train ES Rome - Salerno, then hydrofoil Salerno - Postano which takes 70 minutes.<BR>These are the departure times of the hydrofoils from Salerno to Positano: 8.40, 9.40, 11.30, 14.10, 15.30 .<BR>Have a nice trip.

We're going to Positano from Rome the morning of May 18th - very soon. Will the hydrofoil be in operation then?<BR>Thanks,<BR>Sue<BR>

Sue - the Naples-Positano hydrofoil service won't start before next month.<BR><BR>The Salerno-Positano ferry service (70 mins.) IS running. Departures are from PIAZZA DELLA CONCORDIA jetty, 200m from Salerno station.<BR><BR>Vincenzo has listed departure times above. <BR><BR>Hope this helps ...<BR><BR>Steve<BR><BR>P.S. Bare in mind that there's no road access (i.e. no taxi's) from the jetty in Positano.

Thanks...that helps.<BR>Sue<BR><BR>
