Traslado en coche privado de Amalfi a Rome

On your way to Rome from the symbol of the Amalfi Coast, there will be towns and cities waiting for you to explore. Stop at Pompeii, the city famously frozen in time after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. It bears some of the most significant examples of Roman art and traditions, and walking through the 2000-year-old streets is an experience like no other. After exploring Pompeii, you can also hike in Vesuvio National Park and get a closer look at the volcano, the only active one in mainland Europe. Continuing with the effect of the eruption on the Italian coastal cities, you can continue with Herculaneum, a sister city of Pompeii. Visit the preserved houses in the archaeological area offering an intimate look at Roman life. Right before you arrive in Rome, take a stroll around Tivoli, a town with views over the Roman countryside and full of temples, ruins, and villas.

The cultural landscape of Rome is as diverse as its history. Some of the world’s most significant art collections can be found in the Vatican Museums, the Borghese Gallery, the National Gallery of Modern Art, and many other esteemed institutions. The city is a center of Renaissance art under the patronage of the popes who commissioned works from master artists like Bernini, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Bramante. Therefore, walking through the streets of Rome means an exhibition of sculptures and fountains. Rome is also the birthplace of Baroque art characterized by dramatic expressions and intricate details. Artists like Caravaggio and Borromini transformed the city with their innovative approaches.

The lifestyle here is a mix of leisure and sweet chaos, reflecting Roman’s deep appreciation for the joys of daily life from savoring a morning espresso to enjoying a hearty meal. Life in the city partly revolves around Roman cuisine, restaurants, and cafes. The cuisine is known for its simplicity, fresh ingredients, and deep roots in history, reflecting the city’s cultural layers and the broader Lazio region. So here, you will enjoy a fascinating combination of world-class cuisine and a historical art scene.

Avoid rush hour

Rome has some of the worst traffic congestion in the world, and it peaks from around 7:00-9:00 AM and 4:00-7:00 PM. Plan your trip from Amalfi to Rome to arrive outside these times to avoid being stuck in traffic.

Amalfi to Rome by bus

The cheapest way to get from Amalfi to Rome is by bus. Both Flixbus and SITA offer daily trips, and tickets are between $18 to $26 per trip. Between the two coach lines, Flixbus is faster, taking just under five hours, while SITA takes about seven and a half hours.

Amalfi to Rome by ferry and train

During the warmer months, a ferry service operates between Amalfi and Salerno. From Salerno, you can then take a direct train to Rome. This option is appealing if you want one last look at the Amalfi Coast from the sea. However, ferry schedules can be less frequent and subject to weather conditions, so it’s important to plan ahead.

Amalfi to Rome by car

Rent a car if you’d prefer a more direct and flexible way to travel. The distance is approximately 170 miles (275 km), and the journey can take around three to four hours, depending on traffic and speed. The route usually involves taking the A3 highway north towards Naples, then following the A1 towards Rome. Although the route is scenic, driving in Italy can be challenging due to narrow roads along the coast, heavy traffic, especially during peak seasons, and the high cost of fuel and tolls.

Get lost in history

The sights you’ll see in Rome will take you back in time like no other city has done. Start with the essentials and visit the Colosseum. It is totally worth the hype if you keep in mind that it hosted gladiator fights, wild animal hunts, and public executions. To have an audio-guided tour and to see the interior including the backstage where animals and fighters wait, get your tickets here to avoid the long lines. From here, head to Palatine Hill and take in the breathtaking views of ancient Rome before heading down to the Roman Forum, where you'll find some of the oldest monuments in the city.

An absolute must-visit is the Vatican City. Explore the smallest country in the world, where only the pope, nuns, priests, and some guards are allowed to live. Visit Saint Peter’s Basilica to experience the mesmerizing vastness and craftsmanship. See Michelangelo’s fresco at Sistine Chapel including the painting Creation of Adam. Your phone won’t be allowed here so get ready to dive full into the moment and art here.

Join the vibrant life of Rome

Rome offers a lively cultural life with busy neighborhoods, full pubs, and a modern art scene. Start by discovering Pigneto, a neighborhood popular with college students and a vibrant nightlife. In this cultural melting pot, you can try international cuisines and experience a different side of Rome that is way more alternative than the historical center. As your next stop in exploring other faces of the city, visit Testaccio Market and its nearly 100 stalls. Here you find a perfect selection of local bakeries, butchers, fish shops, and many more.

Go to Janiculum Hill for an amazing sunset and surprisingly serene vibes, making one feel almost out of the city. Walk up the hill to stretch your legs, or take a taxi if your feet are sore from your explorations. The park and its panoramic view of Rome is open from 10 AM to 6 PM. For a more contemporary side of Rome, stop by MAXXI, a museum of all things contemporary. The futuristic building designed by Zaha Hadid is worth the visit alone.

Several festivals and celebrations, including Easter, make the visit even more fun. Summer is packed with tourists and crowds so it can be overwhelming at times with temperatures exceeding 86°F (30°C). If you prefer the least amount of people and lower prices, consider visiting in winter. It is colder and occasionally rainy, but it's worth it to join in the Christmas festivities.
