Amalfi Coast
Find yourself amongst a dramatic landscape.
Surround yourself by the sun-drenched coastline – rugged and twisting by the spectacular seaside. The amazing landscape is softened by picturesque villages surrounded by chestnut trees, olive groves, and terraced lemon orchards used for a special liquor called Limoncella. Served ice cold, this special drink is a refreshing end to a long hike or extraordinary meal. Salute.
Nearby Pompeii, in the shadows of Mt. Vesuvius, reminds all of the ancient intensity associated with the area. The hiking tour takes you to Ercolano, a neighboring village to Pompeii, also brought to an early end by Vesuvius. Ercolano offers an amazing archeological experience and wonderful new museum without the crowds experienced at Pompeii.
Encounter your inner peace through a week of exploring serene locations. Explore the regional cuisine through food and wine tastings, as well as cooking classes. A soul-soothing journey you deserve.
Hike along quiet footpaths and stone stairways, that have linked these coastal villages for centuries. Follow the footsteps of ancient residents – quietly, among the spectacular views.
