Highlights
- Walk the dramatic Path of the Gods between sky and sea
- Explore ancient Pompeii
- Visit the romantic Isle of Capri
- Feast on rustic Italian cuisine
The mountain vistas and blue-green waters of Italy's Amalfi Coast provide the backdrop to this varied seven-day trip.
Taking in the bustling hillside town of Positano and the vintage glamour of the Isle of Capri, we wander through sloped gardens and terraced lemon groves, explore Roman ruins, cruise across clear waters, discover remote woodlands and underground caverns, and dine on classic Italian food in cliff-top cafs.
One highlight of this Walk is the ancient ruins of Pompeii, set at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, where we witness life as it was in AD79, preserved by a devastating volcanic eruption.

Hotels - Where we stay

Hotel Bellevue Syrene
Located just past the historic center of Sorrento, beside the sea, lies Hotel Bellevue Syrene. Rising from the foundations of a 2nd century Roman Villa, the current building was built in 1750 as a private villa and became a hotel in 1820. Restorations done through the years have all sought to preserve the original style and emphasize the 18th-century frescos. All rooms are equipped with modern comforts: satellite television, a refrigerator, bar, safe, air-conditioning and hair dryer. Each room has a small balcony and beautiful views. Guests can also take advantage of the beauty centre for a turkish bath, massage or sauna that must be pre booked with the hotel reception. The Hotel has a private access to the sea and offers guests free use of its sun beds and beach umbrellas.
