Itinerary

There is nothing in the world like Naples and the Amalfi Coast - so mush so that in Italy they say 'vedi Napoli e poi muori' which translates as 'you see Naples and then you die'. The meaning is not literal (of course!), but we read it as something like 'you see Naples and then you can say that you've seen it all, and you could die with no regrets'. And we don't want regrets. That's why you should join this trip to Italy.

Our adventure through the historical wonders of Campania kicks off in vibrant Naples. After savouring some mouthwatering Neapolitan pizza, we dive into the past with a visit to Pompeii and a chill afternoon in Sorrento. Next, we get active on the stunning Path of the Gods, taking us from Agerola to the dreamy Positano. Finally, we set sail for a day trip to the legendary island of Capri, where we explore its iconic sights and soak up the island vibes. These five days promise an unforgettable journey through a region that's the envy of the world.

Pompeii

We kickstart our day bright and early with a hearty breakfast, indulging in more delicious Neapolitan pastries to fuel up for the exciting day ahead. Today's agenda is packed with adventure as we hop on a train to Pompeii. Once we arrive at this extensive archaeological site, there's no rush; we have plenty of hours to explore. Our must-see list includes the Forum, the House of the Faun, the Villa of the Mysteries, the Teatro Grande, the Teatro Piccolo, and the Garden of the Fugitives.

Sorrento

Having immersed ourselves in this remarkable piece of Italian and global history, we board our train back to Sorrento. A scenic coastal journey is the perfect way to wrap up this fantastic first day of exploration before we head back to Naples for another delightful evening in the city.

Path of the Gods

In our quest for the perfect blend of history, sea, and delicious food, there's one more essential ingredient: nature. And in these parts, nature never fails to dazzle, especially along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast. After an early start and a hearty breakfast, we make our way to Agerola, ready to don our comfortable shoes for an exciting trek. Our destination? The renowned Path of the Gods, a trail immersed in Mediterranean foliage that exudes timeless charm. We start our 8 km walk at 600 meters above sea level (it should take us about 4 hours), winding through quaint villages nestled in nature's embrace. Throughout our hike, the mesmerising deep blue sea accompanies us, beckoning us to pause frequently and capture its beauty in photographs.

Arriving in Positano

Lunch is a must, and we pick Nocelle for its unbeatable scenery. After relishing local specialties, we continue our hike, with Positano's colorful cliffside houses on the horizon. We reach Positano, enjoy a swim if the weather allows, grab a seaside aperitif, and then head back to Naples for the evening. Tonight, maybe sausage and broccoli?

La dolce vita on the island

If we didn't get time the previous day to sail to Capri from Positano, well, today is the day! We set sail for one of the most iconic islands in ItalyCapri! After a scenic journey down the coast, we’ll hop on a ferry and cruise across the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea. Once on the island, we’ll soak up its Mediterranean charm: stroll through the elegant streets of Capri town, explore the hidden alleys of Anacapri, and take in the breathtaking views from Monte Solaro. There’s time to visit the famous Blue Grotto (weather permitting) or just relax with a spritz in hand, enjoying that unbeatable island vibe. In the late afternoon, we’ll ferry back with salty hair, sun-kissed skin, and memories to last a lifetime.

To finish the trip in style, we couldn't possibly miss the best part about Italy! We're back in Naples for a mouth-watering food tour, guided by a local expert, to taste the very best of Neapolitan cuisine: we’ll start with dessert, of course, indulging in a sfogliatella at one of the city’s historic pastry shops; then move on to savoury with a delicious "cuoppo" at the famous Pignasecca market, and we’ll top it all off with the one and only fried pizza! What better way to carry out the farewell dinner!
