Italy for me From Italy with love
Parking in Ravello is located near the main cathedral, but we didn’t find it right away. Our GPS initially led us to a dead-end on a narrow rural road, and we had to turn around. This might have been because we entered Villa Cimbrone as our destination, but it turns out you can only reach the villa on foot.
I recommend relying solely on road signs as you approach Ravello. The closest parking to the town center is Piazza Duomo, and you’ll see a sign with the words “parcheggio consigliato” (recommended parking) above it.
At the entrance, you’ll need to take a parking ticket – don’t lose it! I usually leave it in a visible spot inside the car.
We arrived in Ravello around 10 a.m., and there were only a few spots left.
After climbing the stairs for just a minute, you’ll find yourself in the town’s central square, Piazza Duomo.
Parking costs €2 per hour, and payment must be made at a special machine before you leave. The machine accepts banknotes and credit cards.
We spent 4 hours in Ravello and paid €8. You can also leave your car for a full day for €15.
To fully explore Ravello, you should consider staying at least one night. The town left us with such fond memories, and we’ll definitely return to visit Villa Rufolo and stroll through the streets without rushing.
