Between the sea, metropolises & lemons

Individual tours
Amalfi Coast 2025

Laura Schieferdecker
Between metropolises and the sea A region of contrasts

“The views on the Amalfi Coast always take my breath away. Several hundred metres above the sea, you look down on the small bays of the steep coast of the Gulf of Salerno – far away from the hustle and bustle of its small, traditional towns and large metropolises. With this view, you will immediately understand why this only eight kilometre long stretch of coastline has attracted artists and intellectuals, aristocrats and bourgeois alike since the 19th century.

That’s why I would like to share my enthusiasm for the Amalfi Coast with you and show you the best way to get to know this region. Perhaps, for example, you could take a trip in a hire car or in your own car and then take plenty of time to visit the places that fascinate you the most.

By the way: your journey begins at home. Depending on where you are departing from, we will also plan and organise the route and your accommodation in the transit countries up to your destination.”

Our recommendation for you

It's best to plan a journey of around two weeks to get from Naples to Bari in Apulia. This is the best way to discover southern Italy. From the Amalfi Coast, you can easily explore Pompeii and the island of Capri, get to know the cave city of Matera on the way to Bari or visit the baroque city of Lecce. If you are travelling from Naples, the Amalfi Coast begins at Positano. From there, the panoramic road, the Amalfitana, winds its way along steep mountain slopes all the way to Salerno. Although this road is narrow, the views from here are simply fantastic.

Discover the Amalfi Coast

Experience culture on the Amalfi Coast

Word has spread around the world that the narrow road named after the town of Amalfi, which winds along the steeply sloping rocky coast not only offers unique panoramas, but also leads past picturesque places that have a lot to offer culturally.

You should visit the 10th century cathedral in Amalfi with its bell tower and cloister of paradise as well as the lovingly renovated Villa Rufolo near Ravello and Santa Maria Assunta, built on the coast, with its yellow-green decorated dome made of majolica ceramics in Positano. You should also include the monastery of Santa Maria Olearia and the 9th century castle of Santa Nicola de Thoro-Plano in Maiori in your cultural programme. Almost all of these historic places offer visitors interested in culture sights that are definitely worth a stopover.

It is also not far to Naples or the ruins of Pompeii or Herculaneum, which were destroyed by Vesuvius, making your hire car tour along the Amalfi Coast a cultural highlight.

Amalfi Coast – a natural beauty

Unique panoramas are not only on offer along the world-famous coastal road. Hikers and mountaineers also get their money’s worth here, as they are rewarded time and again for their efforts with wonderful views of the Gulf of Naples, the Gulf of Salerno or even Vesuvius. There are also numerous hiking trails in the Monti Lattari, which lie between the gulfs.

But the Gods’ Path from Agerola to Positano is also a great way to hike and enjoy nature – past beautiful gardens and colourful vegetation. Let yourself be enchanted by the scent of the macchia and whet your appetite for more.

Amalfi Coast – savour the culinary delights

The Amalfi Coast is also a delight for the palate. Thanks to its location between the sea and the mountains and its numerous vegetable gardens, it has a varied and very flavoursome cuisine. Fresh fish and ‘frutti di mare’ are of course at the top of the menu, but each place has its own recipe, so it never gets boring. But the cuisine has much more to offer. Pasta varieties such as ‘scialatielli’ or ‘ndunderi’ are typical of the Amalfi Coast, as are the caciocavalli cheese, smoked provole and ricotta.

A good wine, a limoncello or a typical dessert such as ‘Delizia al Limone’ will also make your tour of the Amalfi Coast a culinary experience.

Amalfi Coast authentic and up close

Of course, you can also book guided tours of the most famous towns and culturally significant sites on our round trips along the Amalfi Coast. However, our programme goes far beyond this, because we want you to get to know and understand the country and its inhabitants better.

That’s why we offer experiences that give you a glimpse behind the scenes. Culinary experiences and tastings give you an insight into the specialities of Amalfitan cuisine. The lemony-sweet limoncello is a balm for the palate and just as much a part of Sorrento as any other corner of Italy.

Join a producer on a journey and follow the liqueur from the fragrant groves to the bottle. Listen to the stories about this delicious speciality and let the limoncello and other liqueurs, jams and a uniquely delicious lemon ice cream melt on your tongue.

The trip along the Amalfi Coast was wonderful. We felt very comfortable in all the hotels that Geotoura booked for us. They were all very nice hotels. Extraordinary but very beautiful. We will definitely plan our next trip with Geotoura.

The trip was organised about 2 weeks before departure. The itinerary (car + hotels) was nevertheless very well adapted to our challenging wishes, making the wonderful holiday on the Amalfi Coast possible. The on-site support is also a big plus.

Thanks to Geotoura, we had a wonderful time in Apulia. Our wishes for small hotels were catered for, all the accommodation was close to the centre and quiet and offered an individual flair. The suggestions for changes to our round trip turned out to be very good, and the detailed descriptions in the personal travel guide enabled us to plan our days well. This was the most relaxed holiday preparation for an individual trip we have ever had and we can recommend Geotoura with a clear conscience. Everything was one hundred per cent perfect. Many thanks for that!

I would like to thank the Geotoura team for their advice and support during our trip to Sicily. The travel information provided was very helpful and the hotels we booked all met our requirements in terms of location and facilities. The Organic Farm Resort Fontes Episcopi will remain a special memory for us. We were particularly well looked after and spoilt with culinary delights. The location and facilities of the former country house are unique. The hire car was big enough for our group (6 people) so that we could travel comfortably with our luggage.

The surprise trip for my husband's 60th birthday went really well. The hotels in Noto and Agrigento were wonderful! Sicily has a lot to offer and we will definitely be travelling to the island again to explore the rest of the island. The beaches were fantastic and the sea was still warm enough. The area around Taormina was too touristy for us but it was still a fantastic holiday!!! Thank you for the great organisation.

We had an all-round wonderful holiday in Sardinia. Everything was superbly organised, the island was beautiful and the hotels were exceptional. This was our 4th time travelling with Geotoura and certainly not the last. We are already looking forward to our next holiday, probably to Andalusia again.

Arndt B.
Germany
The trip was simply wonderful, well organised and all the wishes we had were taken into account, supplemented with suggestions and alternatives where necessary. What we wanted to experience on our first trip to Greece/Crete was surpassed in every case and it certainly wasn't the last time we were there. It was not a prefabricated scheme that was worked through, but you are, if you want it that way, very individually on the road to get to know the country and its people. We not only enjoyed the trip, but also the organisation by the friendly Geotoura team.

All the hotels recommended to us by Geotoura were excellent. The hotel complexes in Syracuse and Agrigento were so beautiful that we almost didn't want to leave them. The car hire company we booked was efficient and the car was almost new. A query with Geotoura was dealt with immediately, even at the weekend. We would be happy to use Geotoura again next time.

The Apulia trip which was organised by Geotoura, was super. Every wish was fulfilled, the hotels were perfectly chosen, the documents provided were very helpful – it couldn't have been better.

That was my first organised round trip. The destination was Sicily. Geotoura chose a great selection of cities and hotels for me. Each hotel had its own charm. I would always use Geotoura again to plan a trip.
