Italy’s Amalfi Coast is indisputably one of the most beautiful places on the planet. And, while the time-tested holiday travel destinations of Amalfi and Positano have a lot to offer, there’s a diamond-in-the-rough just around the bend that serves up a slightly different experience: Traveling Meta
Meta is a commune tucked into the coast opposite Positano on the Campania region’s resident peninsula, a short train ride away from the cities of Naples, Pompeii, and Sorrento. Meta historically caters to travelers, though you’d never think it while walking its peaceful, narrow streets. Here are five reasons to stray from the Amalfi Coast and travel Meta on your next vacation:
Traveling Italy
Privacy
Positano and Amalfi are beautiful cities, and you’ll be made painfully aware of that by the swaths of selfie sticks and sun hats clambering out of the tour buses. Meta has its own major train stop, but it manages to provide sanctuary from the crowds, aside from the occasional Fiat 500 zipping through town.
5 Reasons Why Traveling Meta, Italy Should Be Next on Your Travel List
Location
Surrounded by Naples, Pompeii, and Sorrento, Meta is a perfect location for those looking for a more comprehensive Italian travel experience. Rome is also a short train ride away, and the Amalfi Coast can be reached by bus from Sorrento, which can be easily accessed on foot if you’re dead set on paying it a visit. You must experience the drive, it was spectacular there are many cars services, how to get there by car for this trip we used Holiday Autos to travel.
Cost
Because Meta is off the beaten track, you can wine, dine and rest your laurels for significantly less than in the surrounding cities. Hotel prices in Meta are significantly cheaper than Amalfi, and many rooms go for less than half the price than comparable accommodation in Positano.
Beauty
The same geographic features that make the Amalfi Coast a wondrous destination exist in Meta. Sandwiched between rocky cliffs and the sea, you won’t be short on breathtaking sunsets or stunning vistas in this beautiful Italian hideaway.

Authenticity
Although Travel Meta is centered around tourism, it doesn’t sacrifice any of its coastal Italian, charm. With orange trees lining the streets, uncrowded beaches and an uncompromising restaurant scene, Meta feels as real as it looks.
