First, meet our City Wonders representative at Rome’s Termini Station where you will benefit from fast transportation via high-speed train to Naples. After meeting your local guide right at the Naples train station, you will drive out of the city on a comfortable private coach, past Mt. Vesuvius and slowly enter the winding roads and lemon orchards that characterize this part of the Campania region as you hear the local history and get insider recommendations from your guide. The Amalfi Coast is home to some of the most beautiful scenery that Italy has to offer, and in the ‘Bel Paese’ that is saying a lot. It is a narrow stretch of land on the southern side of the Sorrento Peninsula between lush peaks reaching heights of over 4,000 feet-
The first stop is the most picturesque town on the entire coast, Positano, whose houses seem to tumble down into the sea amid narrow alleyways, chic boutiques, typical restaurants, and ‘Dolce vita’ cafés. Despite its present glamor, Positano was once a poor fishing village that was nearly abandoned until it was ‘rediscovered’ by international jet-setters, filmmakers and writers, making it a haven for the cultural elite. Come here, and it’s easy to see why. Its charm will seep into your pores as you shop
After taking in the crown jewels of the Amalfi coast, you will travel up the verdant mountains that cradle it to take in more incredible views of the sky and sea below. Here you will have the rare privilege to see how one of Italy’s most famous foods is made from a real local cheesemaker. We are of course speaking of real Buffalo Mozzarella cheese! Also known as ‘the queen of Mediterranean cuisine’, this delicacy is made with pure buffalo’s milk, and it will be hard to go back to the stuff you get back home once you’ve tried it. Try other delicious locally produced cheeses like the ‘caciocavallo’, as you browse through this amazing family-run shop.
