About Amalfi
After your drive from Rome Fiumicino Airport to Amalfi, you’ll be greeted by a peaceful vacation destination with quaint villages and serene shores, but that wasn’t always the case. Amalfi was once a powerful maritime republic and flourished from the 9th to 12th centuries as a significant trading hub in the Mediterranean with the Byzantine Empire and the Arab world.
It was renowned for its shipbuilding, long-distance sailing, and the production of luxury goods, including textiles and paper. The "Amalfi Laws” were a pioneering maritime code that became the standard international law at the time and laid the foundation for maritime law in the modern era. The modern compass was also perfected by Amalfi sailors.

In 1343, after over a century of occupation by the Normans and the Pisans, the Amalfi Republic met a swift end. An earthquake in the Tyrrhenian Sea set off a chain of events leading to a tsunami that destroyed the port and all of its boats. The lowest-lying coastal areas, full of shops, housing, and government buildings, fell into the sea.
The Amalfi people never recovered their population numbers from the complete destruction of their economy, community, and way of life. Earthquake survivors folded themselves into the broader mainland Italian empires and the Amalfi Coast fell into obscurity until its rediscovery as a sunny vacation spot after it finally received a road in the 19th century.

From Rome Fiumicino Airport to Amalfi: travel tips
To ensure you have the best Rome Fiumicino Airport to Amalfi transfer, follow these travel tips!
Let your accommodation know your estimated arrival time
If you’re staying in a larger hotel, this tip might not apply, but if you booked a smaller boutique hotel or an apartment, let them know your estimated arrival time once you arrive at the airport or start your transfer.
Many apartments and small hotels on the Amalfi Coast are run by individuals who may not be on the property 24/7. By giving them an estimated arrival time, you ensure that they will be available to give you the keys and tour. They may have the room prepared sooner than you expected and will be able to accommodate an earlier check-in.
### Book your transfer back to FCO before you start your vacation
If you will be flying out of FCO when your trip to Amalfi comes to an end, book your transfer back to the airport when you book your transfer to Amalfi. Don’t start your vacation with a nagging thought in the back of your mind about your to-do list! Booking ahead also guarantees your entire family will have a way back to catch their flight from such a far-away airport.

1. Take the 30-minute train to Roma Termini, the main train station for Rome.

Things to do when you get to Amalfi
After your Rome Fiumicino Airport to Amalfi transfer, the first thing to do is rest! After a good night’s sleep, fuel up with a traditional Italian breakfast and take on Amalfi!
Go hiking on the Sentiero degli Dei (Path of the Gods)
The Path of the Gods is one of the most celebrated hiking trail networks in Italy for its spectacular views of the Amalfi Coast. It connects the village of Bomerano in Agerola to Nocelle, a hamlet near Positano. The trails have everything you’d ever want in a hike: panoramic views, opportunities to observe wildlife, and the sense of walking among the gods, as its name suggests.

### Sample the Amalfi cuisine
You don’t have to go far from your hotel for amazing food! Amalfi is famous for its production of limoncello, a sweet lemon liqueur made from locally grown lemons. Don’t be fooled by its presentation in a shot glass, though! Limoncello is to be savored and sipped slowly, not taken as a shot.
Delizia al Limone is another lemon-based specialty. This pastry delicacy is difficult to find outside of the Amalfi region and is beloved for its tart-but-sweet combination.
The local cuisine heavily features fresh seafood, including dishes like spaghetti alle vongole (spaghetti with clams) and pesce all’acqua pazza (fish cooked in broth). For at least one of your meals in Amalfi, sit at a restaurant patio overlooking the sea and sample its amazing, fresh flavors.
### Museo della Carta (Paper Museum)
Amalfi paper, or bambagina, dates back to the 13th century and is associated with quality craftsmanship even today. The Amalfi Paper Museum showcases traditional papermaking techniques and old machinery and is a great break from the sun (or a nice activity if it’s raining).
What is the best time to visit Amalfi
Amalfi has the most pleasant weather and the smallest crowds in the spring and autumn. The spring brings fresh blooms to the gardens and balconies in town, but the autumn has warmer water that’s been heated all summer long. Either of these shoulder seasons are the perfect time to visit.
Summer is the most popular time to visit, but comes with more expensive accommodations, longer queues for popular attractions, and less space on the coast for your family to play and relax. The afternoon sun is oppressively hot, which saps the fun out of activities like hiking.
