Amalfi Coast Shared Tour

The Amalfi Coast Shared Tour takes place in one of the most charming locations in Italy.It is known worldwide as “romantic place” thanks to it’s breathtaking landmarks that are complimented by an ideal climate which is enjoyable all year long. The characteristic windy roads (that can be quite difficult to navigate for a first time visitor), will take you through a vast diversity of landscapes, such as coastlines, beaches, cultivated fields, orange and lemon orchards, olive and chestnut trees and ancient towns that look like they came straight from a fairytale.

The first stop of the Amalfi Coast Shared Tour would be the charming Ravello, where you will have the chance to enjoy the typical Italian breakfast in one the many coffee shops located in welcoming town center. Being located at an higher elevation compared to the other town of the coast, from Ravello you will have to change to take beautiful pictures of the towns at sea level, including Amalfi itself. After Ravello we will head to Amalfi, known as one of the four ancient “Maritime Republics”, where you will enjoy the customs, the incredible moorish architectures and the many lemon delicacies that make Amalfi such a special place. Finally we will get to the pearl of the Amalfi coast, Positano, one the most picturesque locations of the world, where not only you will be able to take a walk through the charming roads and alleys that form the town, but you will also have the change to go for a refreshing swim and relax while bathing in sunlight on the marvelous beach at the bottom of town , last but not least the amalfi weather is particularly beautiful

During the Amalfi Coast Shared Tour I will share my personal knowledge of each locations while also making extra stops along the coast for you to take pictures or to appreciate important landmarks and points of interest that would be otherwise out of reach once you are in town. While in town you will have plenty of time to leisurely visit each location as per the following schedule: one hour in Ravello, one hour in Amalfi and one hour and a half in Positano.

One of the most popular vacation places in Italy, Positano is without a doubt one of most romantic spots that you will get to see during the tour.

Also called the vertical city for the fact that it was completely built on the cliff of the moutain, Positano started as a fishing village but soon after its foundation it started to attract artists, writer and musicians. Since the 1950’s Positano has become a bustling resort town that never ceases to charm thanks to the its vivid pastel colours, the beautiful shops and boutiques, the luxurious hotels and restaurants and, most important, the amazing views. From the marvelous beach of Positano you will be able to bask in sunlight while admiring the Islands of Li Galli, a small achipelagus of three islands where, according to the Greek mythology, the sirens use to live and where even Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev decided to spend the last year of his life.

Positano is simply a little gem, a place of such charm that will leave you with memories that you will cherish for ever.

It is just one of its fourteen towns, but it has such an historical relevance that it gave the name to the entire coast.

This is Amalfi, known as one of the four ancient “Maritime Republics”, together with Pisa, Genova and Venice, called this way because they were the most important ports in Italy for the commercial routes with the east. The white houses separated from each other by narrow alleys and archways form a welcoming, charming little town where you can embrace the history and the traditions of a place that for many years has been considered the source of wealth of the Italian territory.

Once at the main square the Duomo of Sant’Andrea will simply leave you speechless, with its moorish inspired belltower and its incredible staircase at the top of which you will marvel at view of the square and truly feel the grandeur of this ancient town.

Without a doubt the most peaceful one of the Amalfi coast, Ravello is a quaint little town that was founded soon after the fall of the Roman Empire and that has been considered a mountain resort area ever since.

Also known as the City of Music (Città della Musica), Ravello has welcomed during the years many famous composers, from historical characters like Richard Wagner to contemporary artists such as Philip Glass and Ennio Morricone. You will have the chance to visit the fantastic Villa Rufolo, a moorish villa that faces the Duomo of Ravello and the location of the famous Ravello Music Festival that takes place in town every year, and Villa Cimbrone, a medieval Villa where from the Infinity Terrace (Terrazza dell’Infinito) you will enjoy one of the most unbelievable views that the coast has to offer.

Ravello is really a place that sticks with you lonng after you have visited it, it’s charm is really unmatched, and the peacefulness of its lifestyle makes this a truly unique experience.
