Cooking and Walking on the Amalfi Coast
Personalize this tour to your travel dates and activity level
Near the tip of the Sorrentine peninsula sits the little fishing village of Marina del Cantone with views towards Capri. For our Amalfi Coast Cooking and Walking tour, we situate ourselves for five nights nestled in the cliffs above Cantone. Your host and chef is a native of the area, who will introduce you to the savory cuisine of la mediterranea with fish caught fresh daily, sun-ripened tomatoes and the rich olive oil of the south being the basics upon which you'll create scrumptious feasts.
Highlights
- Learn the secrets of Mediterranean cooking from an expert chef
- Visit the picturesque towns of Sorrento, Positano and Capri
- Take walks along the cliffside paths overlooking the sea
- Enjoy the wonderful cuisine and wines of the region
