Private Amalfi Coast tours from Sorrento are some of the best rated experiences on Viator: several score a perfect 5.0 from hundreds of reviews. The question is less whether they are good and more whether they are worth it for your group.
The quick answer
Private tours start from about $329 to $397 per person on Viator in 2026, for about eight hours with a car or Mercedes minivan and a local driver. The per-person price falls as your group grows. Tolls, parking and fuel are included; lunch and entrance fees are not. For families and groups of four or more, a private tour often costs little more per person than a small group.
How much does a private Amalfi Coast tour cost?

Check dates for the private tour with driverWhat is included with a private driver?
The vehicle, a local English-speaking driver, pickup and drop-off, fuel, tolls and parking, and usually bottled water.
Lunch, entrance fees such as Villa Rufolo, and tips are extra. Drivers are not licensed guides inside sites, but they explain the coast as you go and know where to eat.
Private or small group: which is better value?
For two people a small group is far cheaper; from about four people a private tour becomes competitive.
The small-group minivan is from $110 per person with eight people at most. A private tour gives you the whole vehicle, your own timing and no waiting for others. See all tour prices.
Just the two of you? The small-group minivan is about a third of the private price per person.
Explore the small-group minivan tourWhat can you change on a private tour?
Almost everything: start time, order of towns, time in each, where you eat, and extra stops such as a beach or a ceramics shop.
Reviewers repeatedly mention drivers who rearranged the day around a boat trip, a lunch booking or young children. Ask when you book if you have something specific in mind.
Can a private tour include the Path of the Gods?
Yes: one private tour combines Amalfi and Positano with about three hours on the Path of the Gods hike.
It needs a strong level of fitness and is not recommended with back or heart problems. The driver drops you at the trailhead and collects you at the end, which solves the hardest part of doing the hike independently.

In practice, yes: local drivers know the bends, the bus timings and where to stop, and parking is their problem, not yours.
One guest summed it up: not a place to drive a rental unless you live in Italy. See driving the Amalfi Coast for the rules and the parking reality.
Who should book a private tour?
Families, groups of four to eight, travelers with limited mobility, and anyone who gets car sick and wants to stop when needed.
Couples on a budget usually do better with a small group; couples celebrating something often find a private day worth every cent.
