Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about walking the Amalfi Coast

As some of the walks on this itinerary are loop walks you can explore the local towns or relax near the waterside or beachfront. On the days where you will be walking to the next town, it is not possible to travel with the luggage transfer service. The local bus and ferry services are an excellent way to reach your next destination. Your accommodation hosts will have up to date information and advice should you wish to travel to the next destination by local transport. There is plenty of information about options for the day in your daily walk notes and as always, you can call us at the office for any help during your walk should you need any assistance.

Positano The pink town of Positano is perfect for kicking back, relaxing. The town itself is worth exploring on foot. A glorious collection of terracotta buildings and artisan market stalls which all somehow cling onto the vertical rock Positano is built on. And of course, you can enjoy spotting the rich and famous moored just off shore in their luxury super yachts . Amalfi This historic town makes for an excellent base to further explore the nearby towns of Ravello, Maiori and Minori. You can always head down to the port and hangout in one of the many waterside restaurants.

Mobile coverage is generally good across the Amalfi region, though the mountainous terrain means signal can be patchy in places. Stroll provides a walking app with GPX files that can be downloaded and viewed offline, making navigation straightforward even without reception. Always carry your phone — it is essential for emergencies and for contacting your accommodation if you are running late.

Your main luggage is transferred between accommodations each day, so you only need to carry a daypack on the trail. Bags must be clearly labelled with your name using the luggage tags provided, weigh no more than 20kg and measure no more than 60 x 50 x 40cm. Please do not attach additional items to your bag via handles or straps. Leave your luggage at reception on check-out and it will be waiting for you at your next accommodation.

The walks involve significant ascent and descent, often in warm conditions. Carry a minimum of two to three litres of water per person each day. Public water fountains are available in most villages and the water is generally safe to drink unless marked "Acqua Non Potabile."

Bus tickets on the Amalfi Coast must be purchased in advance at tobacco shops or newsagents — they cannot be bought from the driver. On trains, always check whether your ticket needs to be self-stamped before boarding, as failure to do so can result in fines of up to €200.

Yes. Please advise us of any dietary requirements at the time of booking so we can inform your accommodation hosts. On check-in, reconfirm your requirements directly with reception — particularly if vegetarian, as interpretations can vary. If you have severe allergies, bringing some of your own snacks is recommended.

Yes. While credit cards are widely accepted, carrying cash at all times is strongly advised. Local buses, smaller cafes and some shops may not accept cards. ATMs are available in most towns along the route. The currency throughout Italy is the Euro.

Yes. A local tourist tax is payable directly to your accommodation at check-in or check-out throughout the Amalfi region. The amount varies by property, typically between €1 and €12 per person per night. This is not included in your Stroll package and must be paid in cash or by card on the spot.

Key items include waterproof walking shoes, a waterproof jacket and overtrousers, sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, a water bottle of at least two to three litres and any personal medications. If you plan to swim on Capri, pack bathers and a towel. If prone to seasickness, bring non-drowsy medication for the ferry crossing. A full packing list will be included in your information pack sent six weeks before departure.
