Excursions to Positano - Amalfi - Ravello

Excursions to Positano - Amalfi - Ravello

The "Amalfi Drive" is said to be the most spectacular in Europe. From Sorrento, the winding cliff top road offers breathtaking panoramic views at every turn.

Each spot is a world of its own, dazzling the imagination and inspiring unforgettable impressions. You will make a stop just above Positano, yet another splendid jewel of this coastline, which boasts picturesque pink and white villas perched dramatically on the steep hillside.

Then on to Amalfi, the jewel that gives its name to the entire coast. The unmistakeable cluster of houses rising up the hillside is dominated by the beautiful Cathedral which stands superbly on the top of a great flight of steps from the main square. Housed in the magnificent Cathedral are the remains of one of the Twelve Apostles, the Patron Saint of Amalfi as well as Scotland - Saint Andrew.

From Amalfi you will proceed to Ravello, nestled eleven hundred feet above the sea in the mountside. We visit the Villa Rufolo which gave the musican Richard Wagner the ispiration to create one of his most famous works. Return to Sorrento and the Aminta in the afternoon.
