Join us for an epic trip to Italy’s stunning Amalfi Coast over the early May bank holiday, starting with a night in lively Naples!
Duration: 4 nights I Group size: 16
Accommodation: 3-star hotel & guesthouse

Our adventure begins in Naples, the vibrant gateway to southern Italy. We’ll spend one night in a centrally located 3-star hotel, giving us time to wander the city’s historic streets, admire the impressive Naples Cathedral, and enjoy a classic Neapolitan pizza—fresh from the source. (depending on your arrival time).
The next day, we’ll head south via private transfer to the Amalfi Coast, where we’ll settle into a beautiful 3-star guesthouse reserved just for our group. Tucked away in the quiet village of Bomerano, this peaceful hillside retreat offers sweeping coastal views and direct access to some of the region’s most spectacular trails.
From here, we’ll explore some fantastic hikes, including the legendary Path of the Gods (Il Sentiero degli Dei)—a dramatic cliffside route with dizzying sea views—along with the scenic Monte Tre Calli trail and the lush Valle delle Ferriere, a hidden gem of waterfalls and ancient forests.
On one of the nights we'll enjoy a delicious three-course dinner at our accommodation featuring local Campanian flavours.
Spring is the ideal season to explore the Amalfi Coast: the weather is mild and wildflowers are in full bloom.
Join us for a thrilling spring hiking adventure on the Amalfi Coast!

DIFFICULTY:
Hikes on this trip are moderately challenging (with one more challenging day). You need to be comfortable walking on steep, rocky, uneven terrain and a good level of hiking fitness is required.
The steep terrain of the Amalfi Coast means we’ll encounter significant downhill sections, including the 1,700-step descent into Positano on the Path of the Gods. Hiking poles are therefore strongly recommended to help manage the elevation and protect your knees.
On this trip it will be easy to take a rest day or extend your stay. There are many options for day trips to other amazing places in the nearby area.
