| A private English speaking driver will be waiting for you by the dockside
in Naples, Sorrento or Amalfi to take you through the spectacular natural
highlights of the Sorrentine Peninsula and the Amalfi Coast. The coastal road is one of the marvels of Italian scenery. Citrus groves, vineyards and olive groves that softly pour down the slopes towards the sea, the road follows the tortuous coastline, where curve after curve opens up incredible views of the Gulf of Naples, Vesuvius Capri and the Gulf of Salerno. You will visit Sorrento, a quiet, enjoyable and charming place famous for its mild climate, the perfume of its gardens, the panoramic terraces that give on the sea and the art of inlay wood. The town sits high above the sea on an imposing tuffa outcrop with deep gorges. The houses are immersed in luxuriant green and surrounded by groves of olive, lemon and orange trees. After visiting Sorrento you continue along the Amalfi Coast, one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world. The scenery is characterised by mighty cliffs that drop in the sea, rich with bays and coves, winding and colourful. You will visit the enchanting Positano. The town develops vertically. The pastel coloured houses are characterised by arched porticos that give onto the sea. You will have the opportunity to walk through the narrow streets that run downhill towards the main beach. From here there is a beautiful view of the sea, as well as of the town as it clambers up the mountainside. In the main square of Positano is the parish church of Santa Maria Assunta famous for its coloured majolica cupola visible from all over the town. You then continue along the coastline enjoying the flora and fauna, an area full of colour against the contrasting blue and emerald sea. On arrival at Amalfi you have the opportunity to visit the famous Saint Andrew’s cathedral (9th century). Its scenic position at the top of steep stairs give a particular flavour to Amalfi’s historic centre. In the serene blue of the sky and sea, Amalfi, guarded by its port, seems held in the palm of a hand. We then continue to the elegant resort of Ravello,
a town of natural beauty, exotic plants and relaxing atmosphere. Here
you can have a traditional and delicious lunch at a restaurant with stunning
panoramic views and also visit the spectacular thirteenth-century Villa
Rufolo. After lunch you will will be driven to your ship. |
