Each room has its ownterrace with a pergola of lemon trees andgrapevines and sea views. The beach of Minoriis a 15-minute walk, or by Vespa, you are therein less than 5 minutes. This village is small but alot less touristy than Amalfi or Positano. Anideal location to enjoy the Amalfi Coast.
The first day you drive all day straight along theunique road along the cliffs of the Amalfi Coastto finally arrive in Minori. First, we will make ashort stop in Sant'Agata sue due Golfi, a cutevillage overlooking both the sea of Naples andSalerno. Here you can have ice cream orcappuccino and talk about your first kilometers.Around lunch, you will arrive in Positano, thepicturesque village glued to rocks, an absolutemust-see on the Amalfi Coast. In high seasonthis village is overrun with tourists, and sinceeverything is narrow, it can feel hectic.

Above Positano lies thevillage of Montepertuso, a serene town fromwhere you have a great view over the Amalficoast.

In the morning, you will set sail fromMinori towards Amalfi, the cultural andhistorical heart of the Amalfi Coast. This townwas once a leading trading center of theMediterranean, despite its small size. Amalficonsists of a relatively flat main street withmany shops. The eye-catcher of Amalfi is theimposing cathedral in the middle of thesquare.
After a cup of coffee or a stroll through Amalfitown, we get back on the Vespa to take a mountain road. Here lies pretty Ravello,another place with a rich history and the realhighlight of this day. You can visit the gardensof Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. From hereyou have the best view of the entire AmalfiCoast!

Here youwill find the village of Tramonti, which means'land between the mountains'. A quiet andgreen village where you can escape thehectic pace of the busy coastline.
