Positano से Ravello तक निजी कार स्थानांतरण

Daytrip makes it simple to book your local, professional driver for getting to hard-to-reach towns like Ravello. With someone else behind the wheel, you will be free to admire the views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and get glimpses of local life as you drive through towns like Amalfi and Praiano.

Ravello Festival

Ravello is also internationally recognized for its annual Ravello Festival (or Wagner Festival).

The Ravello Festival began in 1953 to draw in tourism after the economic damage caused by World War II. It is named for the German composer Richard Wagner, as he used to visit Villa Rufolo and said he drew inspiration from the villa’s serene atmosphere.

The Ravello Festival takes place over many evenings in July and August. Composers, musicians, dancers, and fans of classical music flock to Ravello for the beautiful performances with backdrops of the sea. The ambiance is perfect for classical music as the villas open their doors and garden space to artists and audiences alike.

Ravello’s natural beauty

Another focal point of Ravello is its proximity to nature. Ravello sits 1200 feet (365 meters) above sea level and has cooler temperatures, more lush greenery, and quieter hiking trails than the more crowded towns on the sea. Once you’ve had enough of the beach, visit Ravello to experience the quieter side of the Amalfi Coast.

Leave Positano early in the day

Make the most of this day trip to Ravello by leaving Positano in the morning between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM. Getting to Ravello takes one hour, and you will want to arrive before the afternoon riposo, or siesta, when shops close for the hottest part of the day after lunch.

Dress like the locals

Take a note from the Italian style handbook and choose loose-fitting clothes in light colors that are made of natural materials, such as linen. These will keep you cool all day long and look great in photos.

Large sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat will keep the sun out of your eyes and protect you from skin damage.

Ravello is also incredibly hilly, so sturdy shoes or sandals with a backstrap are preferred over flip-flops.

Ride a bus from Positano to Ravello

A direct SITA bus departs at least once per hour from the Positano Sponda bus station. Tickets cost between $1 and $3 (€0.90-€2.60), and the trip takes approximately 40 minutes.

Traveling by bus around the Amalfi Coast can be confusing to newcomers. When traveling with SITA, you need to purchase your ticket from a corner store or at the bus station. Then, you wait in line at the bus stop and hope that the next bus has enough space for you and your travel companions. In some instances, the bus is already full and skips stops, especially during the summer.

Take a ferry from Positano to Ravello

Ravello is inland; however, you can take a ferry from Positano to Amalfi and then transfer to a bus or taxi from Amalfi up to Ravello.

The ferry ride takes 15 to 30 minutes and costs $12 (€10.75). They depart every 20 minutes from Positano during the peak travel season. From Amalfi, a SITA bus leaves around every half hour and costs $1 to $3 (€0.90-€2.60).

Ravello’s Villa Rufolo

Villa Rufolo is where Richard Wagner, the German composer, took inspiration for his work. It is easy to see why! Villa Rufolo has stunning terraces and gardens perched on the edge of a cliff. The villa looks its best in the spring when the flowers are in full bloom. It is also the main stage for the Ravello Festival.

Ravello’s Villa Cimbrone

The views from Villa Cimbrone’s “Terrace of Infinity" live up to the name! The sea and sky look truly infinite from the balcony of this beloved terrace. The gardens of Villa Cimbrone bring together classical statues, exotic plants, and limestone patios into that uniquely Italian style we’ve grown to love.

Villa Cimbrone is located a short distance uphill from the central square, Piazza Centrale, and is occasionally closed to the public for weddings and other events. Call ahead to avoid possible disappointment!

Piazza Duomo (Cathedral Square)

Piazza Duomo (or Piazza Centrale) is the center of life in Ravello. After all of those hills and stairs from your tours of the villas, stop here for lunch and coffee on one of its many restaurant patios.

It only takes a short time in Italy to notice the urban design patterns of old towns. They almost always include a central square with a cathedral, and Ravello is no exception! Duomo di Ravello (Ravello Cathedral) sits on Piazza Duomo and was built in the 11th century. It includes a museum of religious artwork and is an excellent example of the important role Catholicism plays in Italian life.

If you visit at the height of summer, line your trip up with events from the Ravello Festival (Wagner Festival). It is a cumulation of dance shows, jazz concerts, and orchestra performances that take place 3 to 4 times a week during July and August.
