\"Cathedral-exterior\"Amalfi is among the most visited tourist destinations in Italy: its unmistakable historic center and, all around it, terraces planted with lemon trees, watchtowers and bell towers, and then the convent-hotels with their Moorish cloisters, still hold special surprises in store at the beginning of the 21st century.<\/p>\n

A short walk from the bustling Piazza Duomo, a network of narrow alleys and steep steps lead to unique and quiet corners where art, culture and nature express the spirit and history of Amalfi and Southern Italy.<\/p>\n

It all starts with a unique guided tour, from Bussola Square and then continuing through the narrow alleys of the ancient Amalfi “qasba” to the monumental heart of the city and visiting its Cathedral of St. Andrew, the Paradise Cloister, the nearby Diocesan Museum and the Crypt, which is the spiritual heart of Amalfi. But it’s not over! We will reach the Handmade Paper Museum in Amalfi and the Aceto family farm to live an authentic lemon experience, in contact with the history and techniques of production and processing of the typical “sfusato amalfitano”: you cannot miss the tasting of a lemonade, lemon cake and a taste of artisanal limoncello!<\/p>\n

\"ViaToday the Via Maestra dei Villaggi is a scenic urban trekking route, but since the Middle Ages it represented the main ‘road’ connecting the urban center of Amalfi and the farmhouses located westward, all the way up to Agerola.<\/p>\n

The guided tour departs from Piazza Flavio Gioia and through the steps of the Vagliendola district, reaches the Cieco locality, and then continues, among lemon-growing terraces and breathtaking mid-Coast views, between the villages of Pastena, Lone until reaching Pogerola.<\/p>\n

The church of Our Lady of the Pine, “o mur avet,” the widening of Apotheca Street, the belvedere of F. R. Unterberger, and then the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption, Palavena Street at the foot of Mount Gaudio, are just some of the authentically beautiful places on this route.<\/p>\n

All around, often white-colored “houses” preserve ancient extradosed vaults, terraces with pergolas and steps peeking out from lemon groves or vegetable gardens that are still cultivated.<\/p>\n

A stop at a typical restaurant in the Pogerola valley, under the shade of a cool pergola, will be an opportunity to savor the specialties of the local gastronomy in order to have an authentic culinary experience characterized by typical and genuine flavors.<\/p>\n

The tour concludes with a descent to Amalfi amid the scents of the Mediterranean scrub, via Via Nova, or via Pietralata and Via dello Spinale.<\/p>\n

The tour involves quite a bit of uphill stairs, and yet it can be modified and adapted to any need.<\/p>\n

\"belvedere-amalfi-vehicle\"Legend has it that some Roman gentes<\/em> are said to have chosen as praedia where they founded their cities of Amalfi and Atrani, the valleys of the Canneto and the Dragon. Dividing them is Monte Aureo with its ancient Tower of Ziro shrouded in mystery since the Renaissance, when according to a popular tradition the Duchess of Amalfi, Giovanna of Aragon, was imprisoned there.<\/p>\n

The sunset tour, will start from the Amalfi Arsenal treasure chest of history, tales and secrets like Alvise’s! And then continue through hidden alleys to reach ancient aristocratic domus, the wide Campo Aquario and the small square of the Holy Spirit. Through the ancient Ruga Mercatorum and then via Torre dello Ziro we will climb up to the slopes of Mount Aureo with its breathtaking panoramic views. A scenic flight of steps descends to Via Nova, which leads to Atrani: you will then climb up to the small church of Santa Maria del Bando not far from the Grotta di Masaniello, or you will cross the Campo district where narrow alleys, flights of stairs, underpasses and small slarghi create a real labyrinth.<\/p>\n

Arriving in Piazza Umberto I we will admire the ancient church of San Salvatore de’ Birecto and above the Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Maddalena, and then reach one of the many places beloved by the artist Maurits Cornelis Escher, who found inspiration for his Metamorphosis right here in Atrani.<\/p>\n

An unusual tour then, discovering the thousands of still hidden secrets of Atrani and Amalfi famous town!<\/p>\n
