We will visit an artisanal Pasta factory in Gragnano where some of the best pasta in the world is made. Next, we will take a ride to a winery near Mt. Vesuvius for a wine tasting and a bite to eat under a gazebo. A week in Campania wouldn’t be complete without witnessing the effect that Mt. Vesuvius had on the region. We will visit the Pompeii ruins including a private 90 minute guided tour. On our way back to the villa we will stop at a local Osteria for a traditional family style dinner.
“There’s Always Room for Pizza”

Spend the afternoon in Sorrento before dinner at La Conca, an enchanting seafood restaurant on the Sorrento coast.

There will be plenty of sampling of the finished products during an exquisite lunch at the farm, including gelato at the end made from buffalo milk of course! Next we depart for a wine tasting at a Michelin-rated vineyard Feudi di San Gregorio, followed by dinner at the winery.
“Coast the Coast”
​Thursday We begin the day with breakfast, and then take in breathe-taking views from the Amalfi Coast as we tour and visit Positano. While in this posh seaside beauty, we will sightsee and shop. Lunch will be on your own today, but don’t get too full because later we’ll be feasting on the courses from tonight’s cooking lesson with Rossella and our local Nonna.
“Seize the Day”
​Friday There is a saying in Italian, Dolce far Niente, the sweetness of nothing. That’s exactly what is planned for the day. Between breakfast and dinner the day is yours to do whatever you would like in the Amalfi Coast... and whatever your desires are... we will help you make them happen. We have picked out a phenomenal Michelin-rated restaurant in Sorrento, for our last dinner together.
