Overview
About this journey
The Amalfi Way begins in Sorrento and follows the coast at walking pace. Mornings are spent on historic footpaths such as the Path of the Gods, where the sea glitters far below and terraced gardens cling to the cliffs. Afternoons are yours for swimming, a slow lunch or a nap in the shade.
We base ourselves in two characterful hotels to keep packing to a minimum, and travel between villages by local ferry and short transfer. Along the way you will visit a family lemon farm, learn to make fresh pasta and share an evening meal with friends of your trip leader. It suits travellers who enjoy easy walking, good food and time to take in the view.
Highlights
Walk the Path of the Gods from Bomerano to Nocelle
Cross to Capri by boat and explore its quieter western paths
Visit a family lemon farm and lunch in the terraces above Minori
Cook and dine with a local family in Sorrento
