Erring on the Side of Adventure
... locations, they are sold in time increments; 45 minutes, 90 minutes, or 24 hours. Many towns do not have ticket sales and tickets are not sold on the buses; the guidebook recommends either buying a stack of 45/90 minute tickets, or purchasing the 24-hour ticket.) We got in line to wait for the next bus towards Amalfi (which stops in Praiano and Positano as well as many other coastal towns.)

Day 063: 3 hours, 5.0 kms
