Amalfi Coast: Positano, Ravello & Capri
Five sun-drenched days on the Amalfi Coast, drifting between Positano's pastel-stacked lanes, Ravello's clifftop gardens, the hidden Furore fjord, and a boat circuit of Capri's legendary sea caves and rock stacks. Equal parts hiking, feasting, and lingering over the view.

AFTERNOON
Hotel Villa Cimbrone
Ravello
A landmark of Ravello perched above the coastline — even if just passing through, the grounds and views are extraordinary.
MORNING
Villa Rufolo
Ravello
The medieval gardens of Villa Rufolo spill over a clifftop terrace with sweeping views down to the sea — the inspiration for Wagner's Parsifal and still breathtaking today.
Amalfi
Amalfi
A brief stop in Amalfi to take in the cathedral square and the buzz of the coast's namesake town.

An early boat departure for Capri — cruise the island's famous sea caves, drift past the Faraglioni rock stacks, and ride the chairlift up to Monte Solaro before heading back to the mainland.
Blue Grotto
Anacapri
The highlight of any Capri circuit — row inside the Blue Grotto and watch the water glow an electric, otherworldly blue from the submerged light.
MORNING
Faraglioni (Capri)
Capri
Three towering limestone stacks rising from the sea off Capri's southern shore — iconic from every angle and even more impressive up close from the water.
