About Naples
On your Ravello to Naples transfer, you will enjoy a wondrously scenic route, culminating in your arrival at a hotspot for fantastic food and historical-cultural exploration. Your city exploration is also set against the breathtaking backdrop of the imposing Mt. Vesuvius, and you have ample opportunity to visit captivating sites such as Pompeii or the Isle of Capri (think sparking blue grottos and grandiose cliffside villas).
Perhaps best of all, Naples is known as the birthplace of pizza, so ensure you set aside some time in this vibrant city to grab a Neapolitan pie (or a few!)
From Ravello to Naples: travel tips
The distance from Ravello to Naples passes seamlessly with a Daytrip transfer, and there are a few extra things you can consider that will complement your trip. \
Stop to tour the sights
The drive between these two spectacular coastal cities may be fairly short, but beyond getting from point A to point B, there is an opportunity to stop along the way to visit some of Italy’s most notable attractions. You can include a detour to Pompeii and walk around the ruins of this ancient city built in Vesuivus’ shadow. Or, consider a pit stop to sample some of the Campania region’s best wines in vineyards, such as the Cantine del Vesuvio.
Visit on the first Sunday
While Naples can be a fairly pricey city, if you’re lucky enough to visit during the first Sunday of the month, you can take advantage of free admission to most of the popular sites. This includes state-run museums, public parks, and even famed historic sites such as Pompeii or the Blue Grotto on Capri.
How to get from Ravello to Naples
There are a few ways to tackle getting from Ravello to Naples including driving, taking a taxi, or public transport options like the bus, train, or ferry. Importantly, while the cities are not very far apart, there are no direct public transport options between them. All non-driving options will involve stopovers along the way, where you’ll need to transfer to a new vehicle. Buses and trains are also frequently overcrowded, and a purchased ticket does not reserve you a seat at your preferred departure time.
Private car transfer from Ravello to Naples
The most convenient way to get directly between the two cities is to choose a private car transfer such as Daytrip. This provides you with door-to-door service with a friendly English-speaking driver and negates the need for transport to and from a public transit station. This flexible option enables you to create a bespoke itinerary for visiting the available sightseeing stops along the way. Secure your trip in a comfy sedan for three people for around $202 (€186).
Taxi from Ravello to Naples
A taxi between Ravello and Naples takes about the same amount of time as a private transfer (just over an hour) but can quickly become quite expensive—estimated quotes start in the range of $220-270 (€203-249).
Ferry from Ravello to Naples
To take a ferry or hydrofoil to Naples, you’ll first need to catch a bus from Ravello to Amalfi. From there, ferry routes can transport you to Sorrento and then from Sorrento to Naples for a sailing time of 2 hours. Note that these ferries operate only in the summer months, and the tickets cost around $41 (€38).
Beyond the ferry, there is a 2-3 hour boat tour that leaves from the port of Positano to Naples. This boat takes around 3 hours, and you will, of course, need to transfer from Ravello to the departure port (adding at least half an hour to the journey time). \
Train from Ravello to Naples
The train journey requires you to first take a bus into Sorrento before catching the Circumvesuviana train, which leaves for Naples every half hour. Tickets for this combination of transport options vary in cost greatly, but you may spend anywhere from $6 to $45 (€6-42). The entire journey takes just over two hours.
Bus from Ravello to Naples
As with the ferry, the bus journey from Ravello first involves a trip to Amalfi and then to Sorrento before reaching your final destination in Naples. There is also another route that will take you from Ravello first to the airport in Naples (Napoli—Capodichino Aeroporto) before arriving in the city center (Napoli Piazza Garibaldi). If you take the buses, you can anticipate an almost three-hour journey with tickets starting at $25-28 (€23-26).

Things to do when you get to Naples
After navigating the distance from Ravello to Naples, a wealth of cultural experiences and notable dishes await you. Whether you’re here for the pizza or the archeological significance, a tour of Naples features some of the very best of Italy.
See the National Archeological Museum
Featuring one of the world’s largest collections of classical Roman artifacts, this museum highlights the architecture, practical objects, and art preserved in the ashes of the Vesuvius eruption that crumpled Pompeii. It is a remarkable time capsule of Italian heritage and should be on any historically minded world traveler’s must-see list.
Try the pizza and Ragù Napoletano too
The Margherita pizza created in Naples is the stuff of dreams: pillowy Mozzarella di Bufala, perfectly crispy dough fired in a wood-burning oven, sweetened with the season’s brightest tomatoes, and topped with fresh basil. This is a celebration of beauty in simplicity using Italy’s most famed ingredients.
Once you’ve had your fill of the pizza, Ragù Napoletano is also not to be missed. While many associate Ragù with a pasta dish, this authentic presentation usually involves first serving the pasta coated luxuriously in the tomato sauce used to stew the meats, which are then served as a rich second course.
Pio Monte della Misericordia
For the art history buff, this chapel in the sometimes overlooked Forcella district is home to the world’s only Caravaggio paintings left in its original position. The artist’s masterpiece resides above the main altar and depicts Le sette opere di Misericordia (The Seven Acts of Mercy) in revolutionary chiaroscuro (impress your travel companions with this phrase meaning the balance of light and dark mastered by Caravaggio and his contemporaries). \
When is the best time to visit Naples?
Naples tends to receive the same summer influx of visitors as other popular Italian cities, so to beat the heat (and the crowd), consider timing your visit for the spring or autumn months. April to June or September to October offer you the mildest weather and somewhat lower prices for flights and accommodation. Expect temperatures around 83° F (28° C).
Be sure to pack layers and a rain jacket, particularly in the autumn months as Italy approaches its rainy season. If you find yourself caught out by low-season showers, take a trip underground to the Catacombs of San Gennaro or seek shelter with a Neapolitan espresso topped with chocolate sauce, nuts, and airy cream.
