Itinerary

Step into the timeless beauty of Italy’s Amalfi Coast, where dramatic cliffs meet shimmering seas and centuries-old villages beckon with charm. 'The Amalfi Coast Walk' is a 9-day moderate trekking tour designed for experienced travelers eager to explore both the iconic sights and hidden corners of this legendary region at their own pace.

Your self-guided private trip begins along the elegant terraces of Ravello, home to the ethereal gardens of Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. The route winds through the pastel hues and vibrant beaches of Positano, before leading you to the secluded shingle coves of Marina del Cantone—places few tourists ever find. The trek culminates in Sorrento, perched on a cliff with sweeping views of Vesuvius, providing a spectacular base for optional excursions to Pompeii, Herculaneum, Capri, or Ischia.

Along the way, you’ll encounter authentic moments: farmers harvesting olives, fishermen tending their boats, and panoramic vistas from the famed Path of the Gods above Positano. The unique selling point of this tour package is its perfect balance of celebrated highlights and off-the-beaten-path discoveries—crafted for those who value independence, cultural depth, and breathtaking landscapes. With accommodations, transport, and meals included, all you need to do is lace up your boots and let the Amalfi Coast’s magic unfold.

day 1 - Arrive in Ravello

Arrive at your 4 star hotel in Ravello. There's time for a dip in the swimming pool, offering stunning views, before dinner (Pay locally for dinner).

You stay at the Hotel Villa Fraulo (breakfast included)

day 2 - Exploring Amalfi (Optional)

Descend through citrus groves to Torre dello Ziro (the Saracen watchtower inspired Webster's Duchess of Malfi), then continue along panoramic terraces, to enter the Valley of the Mills (a testament to Amalfi's medieval paper industry) to world renowned Amalfi. A 20 min bus ride (pay locally) to return to picture perfect Ravello, where you can end the day with a visit to the famous Villa Rufolo and Greta Garbo's legendary retreat, Villa Cimbrone.

You stay at the Hotel Villa Fraulo (breakfast included)

Meals:Breakfast

day 3 - Ravello/Bomerano to Positano

We will drop you off in Bomerano to begin today's walk which takes you along the Path of the Gods, the region's most famous walk offering views all the way along the peninsula, with Capri's famous Faraglioni cliffs marking 'land's end'. There's a choice of picnic spots with stunning views as you continue onwards past lemon groves and brigands' treasure troves to Nocelle. Then it's down through lush terraces to the vertical pastel town of Positano and your hotel in the historic centre.

You stay at the Hotel l'Ancora (breakfast included)

Meals:Breakfast

day 4 - At Positano

Positano's wide pebble beach is perfect for a lazy day, but if you fancy exploring further afield there's a pleasant walk to Fornillo Bay with its twin Saracen watchtowers. Boat excursions to discover coral lined sea grottoes, as well as trips to the magical mediterranean island of Capri, are available in the harbour.

day 5 - Positano to Marina del Cantone

We take you into the hills near Fontanelle (30 mins) from where you wind through olive trees as you climb gently to Sant'Agata. There are balcony views - making this a fantastic picnic stop - of Capri, Procida and the Li Galli islands, once considered to be the home of the mythical sirens who lured sailors onto the rocks. A paved lane finally leads you down past geranium-decked houses to the small fishing resort of Marina del Cantone.

You stay at the Taverna del Capitano (breakfast included)

Optional shorter walk: 4.5hrs, distance 12km/7.5mi

Meals:Breakfast

day 6 - At Marina del Cantone (Optional)

You'll be tempted to linger in this pretty little village with its pebble beach lapped by incredibly azure waters, but it's a shame to miss out on our optional walk on the gorgeous Jeranto Bay. There are sea views throughout as you climb to the Montalto Tower, perched on its 100m-high cliff-top outcrop with a truly fabulous panorama over Marina del Cantone and the Li Galli islands. You then descend through olive groves and olive growers' dwellings to an atmospheric ancient limestone quarry, with great sea views, before a final ascent back to your hotel.

You stay at the Taverna del Capitano (breakfast included)

Meals:Breakfast

day 7 - Marina del Cantone to Sorrento

We give you a lift (15 mins) to Termini from where you wind through olive groves with ever-opening views over the Bay of Naples and its islands, Capri, Ischia and Procida. It's well worth the detour to lovely little Annunziata to visit its pretty Aragonese castle for wonderful views. It's then on to bustling, pastel-coloured Sorrento, with its enchanting gardens, maze of narrow streets and stunning views over to Vesuvius.

You stay at the Hotel Continental (breakfast included)

Optional shorter walk: 3hrs, distance 7km/4.5mi

It runs through ancient landscapes to extraordinary villages clinging to the cliffs and some suprisingly green hills among lakes and rolling mountains.
