We will be staying in Rome in March. Can you take a day tour down to the Amalfi coast towns such as Positano or Amalfi? If so, what tour company do you recommend?

It is a good 3 1/2 hour drive from Rome to Positano each way...others may not agree...but I really think that is way too far to enjoy as a day trip. (would be longer with public transport)

I have seen tours out of Rome but it wil be a very long tiring day. When I go I stay 5 days since it is so wonderful. If you never will return to Italy then go for it. It is stunningly beautiful and on a bus tour you could always sleep on the return to Rome on the tour bus.

Positano & Amalfi are too far for a day trip. The tour companies don't even offer it as a daytrip - it's only offered as an overnight tour.
