DAY #1: POMPEII TOUR & FIRST NIGHT IN RAVELLO
When you arrive in Naples we will meet at our designated meeting point in the morning. From here we’ll head to Pompeii for a full guided tour of the site. We’ll enjoy lunch at a local pizzeria before heading to the coast, where we’ll experience our introduction to one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world: The Amalfi. Our first stop will be to see the colors of Vietri sul Mare, bursting with ceramics made by local artisans and you’ll have a chance to browse local shops. We’ll continue on to our accommodation in Ravello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, set high up on the coast. Ravello offers breathtaking views of the entire coastline while being a bit more laid back than some of the more touristy towns of Amalfi. We like to take our guests directly to Ravello because it offers good access to all of the must-see towns, but in a more tranquil atmosphere. Before dinner, we’ll take in the spectacular view of the coast from Villa Cimbrone’s vantage point in their garden with a glass of prosecco to toast to your first night with Green Italy Tours. Optional aperitif & dinner together in Ravello at a local restaurant,
DAY #2: AMALFI & POSITANO
After breakfast at your accommodation, we’ll head to the town of Amalfi where we’ll spend the morning exploring the old town on foot, visiting the famous Cathedral and the promenade for a stroll and some shopping. We’ll catch an early afternoon ferry to take us on the 20 minute ride up the coast to visit the famous colorful town of Positano. In Positano, we’ll have the chance to visit some of the local shops, artist’s galleries and famous sites like the Chiesa di Santa Maria Assunta, just a few steps from the beach. Upon our return to the Amalfi port, we’ll head to a local beach where we can rent a day bed to spend the afternoon in the sunshine. Optional dinner together in local restaurant in Ravello.
DAY #3: RAVELLO TOUR & MAIORI AND MINORI BEACHES
After breakfast at your accommodation, we’ll spend the morning exploring Ravello. Our first stop will be to the Villa Rufolo, a Roman villa with extraordinary views. We’ll visit the Cathedral and the piazza, followed by lunch at one of our favorite local restaurants with beautiful views. In the afternoon, we’ll head to the beaches of the Maiori and Minori. Both with gorgeous sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, this will be the best place to finish our day and watch the sunset over the sea. We can have an optional dinner in Maiori,or we can head back to Ravello for dinner, to enjoy a meal together.
DAY #4: FINAL DAY IN AMALFI & TRANSPORT TO NAPLES OR AIRPORT
Depending on your departure time, we will transport you back to Naples directly or with a stop in Sorrento.
