SHORE ESCURSION FROM SALERNO TO AMALFI COAST

Add the Amalfi Coast Tour to your itinerary for a memorable outdoor adventure. An accomplished English-speaking guide will meet you at your hotel or cruise ship for an exhilarating drive along the corniche (cliff-side) road of the magnificent Amalfi Coast. Travel in a comfortable touring car and enjoy panoramic views of one of the most beautiful places on earth.

From the cliffs of the spectacular Sorrento Peninsula you will experience a vista like no other: the shimmering turquoise Bay of Naples and majestic Mt. Vesuvius are a feast for the eyes. This is a view that has inspired kings to greatness.

You’ll enjoy a breathtaking excursion over the Amalfi Drive that traverses the Peninsula from Sorrento to Amalfi. Along the way you’ll see hamlets that cling to cliff sides in terraced arrangements that are nothing short of amazing. This narrow, ancient Roman road is truly a marvel as it wends it way past the communities of Praiano, Furore and Conca dei Marini with their watercolor houses and fragrant gardens.

As we near the historic seafaring town of Positano, we’ll stop for an overview from above. Then we’ll make our way down to the pedestrian area and into a town that is now a chic seaside get-away. Sip a Limoncello in this locale made popularized by a 1950s Steinbeck novel. Perhaps you’ll stroll to Santa Maria Assunta for a glimpse of the mysterious black Madonna.

Soon we’ll arrive in the main town of Amalfi. Visit the famous Duomo di Amalfi, a 9th century cathedral in the Piazza del Duomo that is dedicated to St. Andrew the Apostle. His relics rest in this ancient place of worship.

The last stunning location on our tour is the rustic hillside community of Ravello. For generations, many an artist has courted his muse in Ravello’s serene lanes among the abundant flowers. Here we’ll find the Duomo di Ravello. Built in the year 1087, this historic cathedral is in the town’s Piazza del Vescovado.
