Overview: car trip from Maiori to Naples

After enjoying the sand and sea at Maiori, eventually, you need to return to Naples. Though the car trip only covers a distance of 43 miles (70 km), in that one hour and ten minutes you'll be transported from the incomparable landscapes of the Amalfi Coast to the bustling lanes and lavish piazzas of Naples. But with all the amazing stops you can make when you ride with Daytrip, your ride will turn into another unforgettable part of your holiday.

Stop at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Pompeii, the Roman city that was buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Walk through the frozen scenes of daily life in this ancient metropolis, where you'll see 2,000-year-old architecture, art, and customs. Then continue to Mount Vesuvius itself for a hike around this magnificent but deadly volcano. And these are just a few of the stops you can make on your trip from Maiori.

Once you get to Naples, your driver will expertly navigate the narrow streets to bring you right to your accommodation. You'll be relaxed and ready to dive into the rich history and culture of the birthplace of pizza.

About Naples

When you get to Naples, or Napoli in Italian, you’ll quickly realize what a vibrant, culturally, and historically rich city it is. The capital of the Campania region, Naples is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on the planet, having stood on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea since the 8th century BC.

This long history has bestowed Naples with a wealth of historical and cultural heritage. The city was once the seat of its own kingdom, an era that filled the city with remarkable sites you can see today, such as the Royal Palace, the Castel Nuovo (Maschio Angioino), and the Castel dell'Ovo.

From Maiori to Naples: travel tips

Getting from Maiori to Naples is a scenic and fun trip especially when you're riding in a private car with Daytrip. You won’t really need to worry about anything during your stress-free trip, but these travel tips will guarantee you have the best possible experience.

Stop for sightseeing

The road from Maiori to Naples is lined with some of the most fascinating sights in all of Italy. Take advantage of them! Unlike public transportation, Daytrip makes it easy to stop for sightseeing at places like Pompeii, Mt. Vesuvius, and Herculaneum. You can even have lunch and wine tasting at Cantina del Vesuvio!

Keep water and snacks ready

Italy gets hot, especially in the summer, and that sun will still get to you through car, bus, and train windows. Regardless of how you get from Maiori to Naples, keep some water bottles and your favorite snacks with you so you don't feel drained at the end of the trip. This is doubly true if you're going to be exploring in the hot sun.

Communicate your preferences

Traveling with Daytrip means a completely personalized experience. Tell your driver if you'd like to make any changes to the route, pace, temperature, or music. If you're interested in learning about the local culture and history, just ask them for their insights! And if you need to pull over for refreshments, rest stops, or just to snap a pic, they'll be happy to do so! Remember, they want you to have the best experience possible!

How to get from Maiori to Naples

If you're trying to figure out how to get from Maiori to Naples, you'll be happy to hear that you have several options, and some of them are direct! We've broken them down to help you pick the one that suits you best.

Maiori to Naples by bus

There's an (almost) direct bus from Maiori to Naples. Bus services like SITA and Pintour offer direct routes from Minori, the next town over. The ride takes around one and a half hours, and tickets can be as low as $7. Although it is a budget-friendly option, getting to Minori with your luggage can be a hassle, and the buses can be hot, crowded, and sell out, and you don't get to explore along the way.

Maiori to Naples by bus and train

There are no direct trains from Maiori to Naples because Maiori doesn’t have a train station. Instead, you have to take a bus from Mairo to Salerno, and from there, you can take a train from Salerno to Naples. This is another affordable option but can take up to three hours, making it slower than just taking the bus.

Maiori to Naples by private car service

Traveling from Mairo to Naples with Daytrip's door-to-door private car is the most direct, convenient, and enriching option. Your English-speaking driver will pick you up and bring you to your destination in Naples. Along the way, you'll be able to talk with them about local culture, tailor the ride to your liking, and stop at enriching sightseeing stops.

Maiori to Naples by rental car

This option is only if you already rented a car in Naples and drove to Maiori. You'll be returning the same way you got here; the Amalfi Coast Drive and then the A3 to Naples. Remember to drive cautiously on the Amalfi Coast's narrow, winding roads, and the busy streets of Naples.

Things to do when you get to Naples

After your trip from Maiori, you’ll find this busy port city is abuzz with history. Here are some of the best things to do when you get to Naples.

Explore the plazas and palaces

Naples’ historic center is the largest in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. So you know there's no shortage of monuments for you to admire. Head to the Piazza del Plebiscito, Naples’ main square, to see multiple palaces, including the Royal Palace, Palazzo Salerno, Prefecture Palace, and the Basilica Royal. And that’s just the start. You can set out to find more historic monuments like the Naples Cathedral, the Sam Domenico Maggiore, or the Castel Nuovo.

Feast on authentic Neapolitan pizza

Naples is the birthplace of pizza, so of course you need to have a pie (or several). The simplicity of the Margherita, with its fresh tomato sauce, mozzarella di bufala, basil, and olive oil on a perfectly charred crust, is the essence of Neapolitan cuisine. Pizzeria da Michele is a cornerstone, having served traditional Neapolitan pizzas since 1870. After that, head to Via dei Tribunali, where you'll find several other contenders for "the best pizza in Naples''.

Explore the National Archaeological Museum

The National Archaeological Museum of Naples holds one of the world’s most impressive collections of Greek and Roman antiquities. Its vast halls display artifacts from Pompeii and Herculaneum, including mosaics, statues, and everyday objects preserved by the eruption of Vesuvius. The Secret Room opens a window into the erotic art of ancient Rome, while the Farnese Collection presents remarkable sculptures like the Farnese Bull.`

When is the best time to visit Naples

The best time to visit Naples is generally in the late spring, between March and June. During these months, Naples experiences pleasant weather with minimal rainfall. The sunshine is abundant and perfect for walking around the Neapolitan streets without the searing heat.

The best beach weather is during this time as well, right before the peak summer temperatures set in. Planning your trip within this timeframe ensures a more comfortable experience with fewer crowds, making it easier to dive into Naples' lively culture.
