Positano
Amalfi
Ravello
Our first stop is Positano, the star of the Amalfi Coast, a destination in the years of the international jet set celebrities, artists and writers who praised and adored it. In 1953, after having visited, John Steinbeck said: "Positano strikes deeply. It is a dream place that doesn’t seem quite real while you are there but you feel the deep reality, nostalgically, after you leave." Today it still retains the charm of its houses built above the sea like a waterfall with characteristic colours bleached by the sun, peach, pink and terracotta. Like from a postcard its steep streets and stairways framed by clusters of wisteria where you will find delicious artisan shops, chic restaurants and fashion boutiques embedded. Continuing towards Amalfi along the coast we will find the fishermen’s villages of Praiano, Furore and Conca dei Marini where we will stop to admire the famous Grotta dello Smeraldo.

The beautiful town Amalfi, which gives its name to the whole coast, is a must-see for anyone visiting South Italy. The Cathedral of Saint Andrew the Apostle, in Arab-Sicilian style rebuilt in Baroque style in '700AD, with the wonderful staircase and its enchanting cloister which will leave you breathless. Amalfi will also surprise you with its little houses perched on the rocks , and the majestic spiked mountain bell towers which descend down into the sea, creating a magnificent meeting of land and water. Continuing to Ravello, our last stop, we find, just around the headland, Atrani: a picturesque maze of narrow streets and arches that tie themselves around the lively square and the beach.
