    1 CINQUE TERRE EXPERIENCES 2018 - Regular, sharing tours – Our on-site team has handpicked the best local experiences for your clients, offering a great variety that can satisfy every kind of traveler. The following tours are arranged by their thematic focus, recognizable by different colors. 2 FOOD & WINE The wine tour in Riomaggiore: meeting the winegrower, hiking through the vineyards, enjoy the wine tasting! Andrea, a young winemaker from Riomaggiore, follows the wine-growing traditions handed down over generations. He takes you on a unique and interesting wine tour. The tasting consists of two different wines offering you a complete new gustatory experience - very natural wines, produced respecting the vineyard and the earth, without the use of chemical products, sulfites and yeasts. The results are intense wines which, through their scents and flavors, will transmit you the special characteristics of the place where they have grown - rocks, sea, herbs… These are authentic wines that symbolize both past and future – because this is the way the ancestors produced the wine in the past, but wines rich in history and character will impress the future too. In the morning you take a bus and reach Andrea at the starting point and together you will walk on a little trail into his vineyard. This is a special panoramic place with a magnificent view over the steep Cinque Terre coast. Andrea will explain you his wine growing methods - respecting the vineyard and the earth, without the use of chemical products. Skillful and with sensitivity he combines modern methods with ancient equipment as the terra- cotta amphorae.

    Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Naples 24 - 31 March 2019 from £1795.00 A tempting Spring break to Italy, relaxing in the mild climate of the Amalfi coast and the Bay of Naples. We will be based in Sorrento on the Amalfi coast for the first three nights, where we will visit the Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. These are the classic Amalfi gardens laid out in terraces where umbrella pines and cypresses shade classical geometric beds edged with box and filled with modern flowers. The site of Villa Cimbrone on a cliff top promontory overlooking the sea is beyond compare. We will also take the ferry to the enchanting island of Capri and explore some of its captivating sights. We travel round the Bay of Naples, breaking our journey with visits to the unique archaeological wonders of Pompeii and Herculaneum, to the pulsating port of Naples itself. We travel out to the north of the city to spend a day at the impressive palace and gardens of La Caserta. This huge palace, with equally grand and impressive gardens, was constructed for the Bourbon Kings of Naples and on completion in the 18th century it was the largest royal residence in the world. Finally a day of art and archaeological treasures as we tour the hot-blooded city of Naples, rich with the aroma of Neapolitan cuisine. Itinerary Day 1 We depart by coach from York for Manchester Airport in time for our scheduled flight to Naples (provisional times 08.00/12.00).

Whether on your own, with your family or with a partner, whether you are cycling or walking, in the Cinque Terre area fun, uncontaminated, wild landscapes, and breathtaking corners are just around the corner. The spectacular landscapes, the coast etched by the Mediterranean Sea and mountains behind the Ligurian sea, the bays that mirror that special light from the clear skies make the Cinque Terre a unique experience . Each village has its own special attractions and is rich in the best Italian folklore, food, etc ….. There is something here for everyone. You will never be disappointed. The "Cinque Terre", where "Terre" (lands) stands for maritime medieval fishermen’s villages, are a landscape included by UNESCO among the “World’s Heritage” due to their beauty, and the particularities which characterize this territory. The Cinque Terre, the “Five Lands“ or the “Five Villages” (Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, Monterosso) is famous all over the world, mainly thanks to its paths and walks which wind round the coast or reach the sanctuaries above each village. The breath-taking view can be enjoyed by everybody: young or old. Public transport (train, ferryboat, bus, etc..) offers an ideal easy trouble free way to enjoy the Cinque Terre at its best. The Five Lands are a group of five picturesque tiny villages along the coast surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and woods.

  • I Origine Calcarea, Capri L'isola Mediterranea Che Ha Visto Nel Tempo Transitare Intellettuali, Artisti E Scrittori, Tutti
    CAPRI Il Comune di Capri dà il nome all’isola che comprende i comuni di Capri e di Anacapri. L’isola azzurra è il naturale prolungamento della penisola sorrentina, le rocce chiare dei Faraglioni sembrano essersi staccate dalla Baia di Ieranto e aver preso il largo, la comune natura carsica ne è testimonianza. Capri ha ispirato scrittori, poeti e registi che l’hanno scelta come location dei loro film. Una combinazione di natura, cultura e mondanità, intorno ad un mare che va dal blu al turchese dell’animata piazzetta e dei locali circostanti che fanno di Capri una meta irrinunciabile. Caratteristici di Capri sono i celebri Faraglioni, tre piccoli isolotti rocciosi a poca distanza dalla riva che creano un effetto scenografico e paesaggistico; ad essi sono stati attribuiti anche dei nomi per distinguerli: Stella per quello attaccato alla terraferma, Faraglione di Mezzo per quello frapposto agli altri due e Faraglione di Fuori (o Scopolo) per quello più lontano dall'isola[1]. Controversa è la questione etimologica. Le due ipotesi più accreditate sono quella latina di “Capreae” (capre), per la fauna predominante costituita da capre selvatiche, e quella greca di “Kapros” (cinghiale), del quale sono rinvenuti numerosi avanzi fossili. L’isola fu anche chiamata insula Telonis dal nome di Telone che, secondo Virgilio, era re dell’isola prima che Enea venisse in Italia. Capri offre tra gli itinerari più affascinanti, quello che conduce alla scoperta delle antiche ville, in origine dodici, volute da Augusto e Tiberio, ognuna delle quali, secondo la tradizione, fu dedicata ad una divinità dell’Olimpo. È proprio agli imperatori romani, infatti, che è legata la fama dei due comuni dell’isola, Capri e di Anacapri.

  • Cinque Terre
    Cinque Terre Welcome to the ItalianCoast Cinque Terre, which translates to “the five lands,” is one of the most dramatic sites along the Italian Rivera. Once brushed aside as a fly over destination, the five villages that comprise this medieval-era coast – Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore – are now a top vacation spot for anyone looking for an old-world Italian experience. The ancient villages, the first of which was founded 643 AD, and the surrounding hillsides are all part of the Cinque Terre National Park and were declared a Unesco World Heritage site in 1997. Your colorful, coastal adventure begins with a flight into your designated airport, where ground transportation will whisk you away to become acquainted with your yacht and crew. Once guests have settled in, the real fun begins with the first stop on your luxury private cruise: Monterosso al Mare. The rugged terrain of this quiet seaside escape will leave all in awe. Whether you choose to spend your time admiring historic cas- tles or the lively, local churches; wandering the narrow streets while staring up at the vernacular, vibrant architecture; jumping into a popular swimming hole with the local; snorkeling reefs teeming with life; or simply shopping till you drop – you’ll find yourself wishing the adventure will never end! Monterosso al Mare You’ll find Monterosso al Mare located at the center of a natural gulf, which is protected by a small artificial reef. The village is divided into two distinctive parts: old town and new town, which are split by a single tunnel that was built in 1870.

    LA GROTTA AZZURRA, I FARAGLIONI, LA PIAZZETTA... L'ISOLA CAMPANA NON HA EGUALI SIA PER LE SUE BELLEZZE NATURALI SIA COME RITROVO MONDANO. PREFERITA GIÀ DAGLI IMPERATORI ROMANI, RESA CELEBRE DALLE STRAVAGANZE DI TANTI OSPITI CHE NEL SECOLO SCORSO SE NE INNAMORARONO, HA FRA I SUOI PUNTI DI FORZA UNA CUCINA, NON SOLO DI PESCE, IN CUI PREVALGONO I SAPORI NOSTRANI Attese l'attimo propizio tra un'onda e l'altra, poi "il Riccio" infilò la barca nella stretta apertura della roccia.

August Kopisch diede al mondo la notizia della meraviglia ammirata in quel chiaro mattino d'a- prile del 1826 e la storia lo ripagò consacrandolo "scopritore ufficiale" del celebre antro anche se, come ri- porta una cronaca locale, il modesto pescatore Angelo Ferraro, detto "il Riccio" quattro anni prima aveva già nuotato tra i riflessi "azzurri" rivelan- do il passaggio segreto di quella che sarebbe presto diventata la grotta più famosa al mondo dopo quella di Be- tlemme. Al fascino leggendario dell'i- sola veniva così ad aggiungersi, quei giorno, la magia di un luogo straordi- nario, sepolto per secoli nell'oblio e che da quel momento avrebbe au- mentato vorticosamente le fortune turistiche dell'isola. Capri divenne ben presto una meta mondana irri- nunciabile. Nella sua celebre piaz- zetta, non più grande di un cortile di oratorio, si imposero riti e vennero lanciate mode stravaganti ed esclusi- ve.
