  • Day 1

    Bomerano (Agerola)

    Take a 1 hour 20 minute transfer from Naples to the quiet village of Bomerano in Agerola. "The hotel feels like a second home with its family atmosphere and amazing local food." Settle into Hotel Due Torri run by the Acampora family and enjoy your first authentic Italian dinner.

    
  • Day 2

    Amalfi & Positano

    Take a morning bus down to Amalfi, Italy's oldest maritime republic. Visit the cathedral and optional paper museum before a 20-minute boat ride to Positano. "Approaching Positano from the sea is breathtaking - the colorful buildings against the cliffs are unforgettable." Visit the cathedral in Amalfi before 11am to avoid the crowds.

    
  • Day 3

    Herculaneum & Pompeii

    Spend a full day at these two incredible archaeological sites. Start with Herculaneum in the morning when it's quieter and cooler. "While Pompeii is larger, Herculaneum's ruins are better preserved - don't skip either site." The drive takes about an hour each way. You'll need sturdy shoes for the uneven ancient streets.

    
  • Day 4

    Path of the Gods

    Walk the famous cliff-side path from Bomerano to Positano. "The Path of the Gods requires good hiking shoes and some scrambling over rocks in places." Stop to watch mozzarella being made at a local cheesemaker. The 4km walk has amazing coastal views but can be challenging. You can take the bus down to Positano if you want to skip the 1,700 steps.

    
  • Day 5

    Free Day Options

    You can visit either Sorrento or Naples today. "For Sorrento, catch the early bus to maximize your time exploring the charming old town." If you choose Naples, visit the Archaeological Museum for the best Pompeii artifacts. Note that it's closed on Tuesdays.

    
  • Day 6

    Capri

    Take a boat from Amalfi to Capri but check conditions first as rough seas can cancel services. "Take the chairlift to Monte Solaro early for the best views before crowds arrive." Visit Villa Jovis later and spend time exploring Capri town's boutique-lined streets.

    
  • Day 7

    Ravello

    Spend your final full day in beautiful Ravello. "The gardens and infinity terrace are most magical in morning light" at Villa Cimbrone, which costs €6 to enter. Spend a peaceful afternoon in Ravello's elegant squares before your farewell dinner in Bomerano.

    
  • Day 8

    Departure

    Time to leave the Amalfi Coast. The hotel lets you use their facilities after checkout if you have a late flight. Consider staying longer to see more of the area.

    Bomerano

    Start your journey in quiet Bomerano away from the busy coast. Check into Hotel Due Torri where the Acampora family runs their welcoming establishment.

  • Day 4

    Vesuvius & Pompeii

    Take a morning transfer to Mount Vesuvius (90 minutes). Walk around the crater for unique views over Naples Bay. Consider booking the optional volcanologist tour to learn about the volcano. Head to Pompeii after lunch arriving around 2 PM when crowds thin out. Spend an extra €10 for a local guide to get the most from your visit.

    
  • Day 5

    Valle delle Ferriere

    Start in Ravello with time to see Villa Cimbrone before hiking. The trail through Valle delle Ferriere Nature Reserve shows you a different side of the area. One visitor noted: "The moss-covered waterfalls and ancient paper mills made this my favorite day." Wear grippy shoes since paths near the waterfalls can be slick.

    
  • Day 6

    Free Day Options

    Spend today relaxing in Bomerano or take a trip out. The hotel can arrange transport to Herculaneum or boat rides to Capri (€38 slow boat €44 hydrofoil). If you choose Capri take the earliest boat to avoid crowds.

    
  • Day 7

    Path of the Gods

    End your hiking with the famous Path of the Gods route to Positano. Leave early to beat the heat and crowds. You'll see incredible coastal views but some spots are quite exposed if you're afraid of heights. The walk down to Positano includes 1,700 steps. Reward yourself with a swim before taking the boat back to Amalfi when the service runs.

    
  • Day 8

    Departure

    Head to Naples airport early. If you have a later flight the hotel will store your bags while you enjoy one last morning in Bomerano.

  • Day 1

    Naples to San Lazzaro

    Take the included transfer from Naples International Airport to the agriturismo in San Lazzaro (about 1.5 hours). Try to book the earlier 1 PM transfer since afternoon traffic can get heavy on coastal roads. Your day ends with a welcome dinner featuring homemade wine and local specialties at the farm.

    
  • Day 2

    Trafore to San Lazzaro Trek (9km)

    Start your first hike on a moderate trail through the high Ferriere Valley. You'll climb steadily on gravel tracks and footpaths through forest until you reach viewpoints overlooking the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. In the evening you can join an optional cooking class (€30) to learn traditional mozzarella and pasta-making. "The pasta-making class was something I'd wanted to do for years - it was excellent," one guest shared.

    
  • Day 3

    Ravello to Amalfi (4.5km)

    A morning transfer takes you to cliff-top Ravello. After exploring its famous gardens, you'll descend ancient stone staircases to Amalfi through lemon groves and olive farms. The 325m descent is rated "leisurely" but requires good knee strength. Bring hiking poles since the stone steps can get slippery in wet conditions. You'll have free time in Amalfi before returning to the agriturismo.

    
  • Day 4

    Capri Island Walk (10km)

    Take the morning ferry from Amalfi to Capri. You'll follow coastal paths past grand villas and botanical gardens to quieter parts of the island. "Being able to be flexible and have lunch atop a hill overlooking the ocean was phenomenal!" noted a recent reviewer. Make sure to explore Capri Town before catching your return ferry.

    
  • Day 5

    Valle delle Ferriere Trek (13km)

    This challenging but rewarding 6-hour hike takes you through the Ferriere Nature Reserve. You'll ascend limestone staircases above San Lazzaro before crossing valleys with unique microclimate flora. The limestone reflects heat intensely so bring plenty of water. Take care on the 1,015m descent to Amalfi.

    
  • Day 6

    Optional Pompeii Day

    Take a free day to rest or join the recommended excursion to Pompeii and Herculaneum (€65 transfer + entrance fees). The guided package (€60) lets you skip lines and get expert commentary. "Getting a guide for both sites was worth every penny - the historical context made it come alive," advised one traveler.

    
  • Day 7

    Path of the Gods to Positano (11km)

    This bucket-list finale follows the famous Path of the Gods from Bomerano to Positano. Start early to avoid midday heat and crowds. The 900m descent into Positano involves many stairs but the views make it worthwhile. "The Path of the Gods lived up to its billing as one of the most incredible hikes you can take," one reviewer raved.

    
  • Day 8

    Departure

    Choose between two morning transfers to Naples Airport: 8 AM or 1:30 PM. Book flights at least 2 hours after your transfer arrival time. If you take the later transfer you can store luggage at the agriturismo after check-out.
