Italy--day trip possible up the Amalfi coast?
Just curious, as I will be in Naples..is it possible to do a day trip and take the
(in)famous bus ride up the coast? Where can I get the bus?
I'm young, energetic, and don't mind long crazy days.
Thanks!

You're going "down" the coast from Naples.
But yes, it's definitely doable. Take the Circumvesuviana train to Sorrento, then the bus to Amalfi. From Amalfi, you can backtrack, or you can take a different bus to Salerno, where you can the mainline train back to Naples.

Hi MissZ - An easy day-trip, as RK says.
The Circumvesuviana train to Sorrento runs about every 30 mins from Napoli Centrale/Piazza Garibaldi station (- journey time: approx. 1hr)
From Sorrento you could do part by bus and part by ferry.
For bus timetables Sorrento-Positano, Positano-Amalfi and Amalfi-Salerno see:

If you want to do a side-trip up to Ravello from Amalfi, timetables are on:

For ferry timetables between Positano-Amalfi and Amalfi-Salerno go to:

For trains back from Salerno to Naples see:

Hope this helps ...
