(Though departing from Naples, and not the Amalfi Coast, you could easily use one of these tours en route to the Amalfi Coast. At the end of the day, rather than returning to Naples just ask your guide to leave you at the closest stop on the Circumvesuviana train line to continue on to Sorrento. Or, for those tours that happen to return to Naples for a tour of the Archaeology Museum, just head to the A.C. from Naples. A little backtracking perhaps, but in exchange for a stellar tour.)

Planning your time: Budget at least a day for the Amalfi Coast. Simply to drive the coast without getting out (except to change buses in Amalfi) takes at least five hours—that's three hours touring the coast from Sorrento to Salerno, plus another hour on each end to get to and from those gateway towns.
If you do want to pack it all into a single day—and actually stop and get out in a few towns—it might be best to just book a tour that picks you up at your hotel, gives you time in each of the main Amalfi Coast towns, and returns you to your hotel 6–9 hours later:
Otherwise, it makes far more sense to spend at least one night on the coast.
If, however, your schedule doesn't have that much leisure time, might I suggest riding the first leg—from Sorrento to Positano to Amalfi—taking a quick spin around Amalfi town, then catching a ferry either back up the coast to Sorrento or over to Capri.
