Positano Trips
According to Greek legends, Poseidon, the God of the Sea, created the beautiful coastal town of Positano as a gift to a nymph that he had fallen in love with. Aside from the fascinating legends and allure that surrounds this cliffside village on southern Italy’s Amalfi Coast, locals and travellers have flocked to this region for centuries to explore the sun-drenched coastlines and picture-perfect streets and charming boutiques draped in wisteria.
This small jewel in the Amalfi Coast’s crown is bound to impress, with its iconic pink and peach terracotta houses and steep streets dotted with bustling eateries and some of the most fashionable retailers in the Campania region. But you’ll soon find there’s a wealth to discover on the outskirts of town whether on foot or by bike on our Positano holidays.
On our Highlights of the Amalfi Coast trip, you can explore the narrow alleyways and sun-filled piazzas of Amalfi, visiting the large Duomo Cathedral before hopping on a fast boat to Positano. Taking in the vertical town views and shimmering turquoise coastlines are bound to leave an indelible imprint on your memory, as you dock to explore this chic town for a couple of hours on foot. Another Positano tour that’s perfect for all the family is our Amalfi Coast: Pompeii and Pizza Family Holiday.

Ruth Clarke Walking the Amalfi CoastThis holiday definitely maybe the perfect mix. There was challenging walking on the Path of the Gods along the beautiful Amalfi coast. Next we were off exploring the impressive historic remains of Pompeii and Herculaneum and daring the crater edge at Vesuvius. Happily immersing ourselves in the food and culture of the region, we were treated to artisan cheese making, cookery demonstrations and participation, limoncello tasting with the expert, and time to enjoy a gelato or three in the sunshine under the bluest November skies. It was even warm enough for a refreshing swim in the sea after conquering all the steps down to Amalfi and again at pretty Positano. The boat ride from Positano was a brilliant way to see all the villages from the sea. Add in glorious Ravello, its wonderful gardens and the breathtaking views from the path down to lovely Atrani, with a little Escher art tour as an added bonus to complete the picture. With our superb, expert guide Veriano and the warmest hotel staff you could wish for, our group of strangers quickly became a team of friends, laughing and singing our way through an extremely enjoyable excursion in Italy.
