Walking the Amalfi Coast

An excellent & varied trip.

Most Inspirational Moment

The boat trip from Positano to Amalfi where we saw how far we had walked along the coastline & how much we had descended. Interacting with the local people who were warm, friendly, welcoming & keen to share with us their customs & way of life.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Suzi was enthusiastic, fun, approachable & well organised. She did little extra things for the group, such as handing out sweets, or surprising us with bottles of prosecco, which made us feel valued. I cant fault her.

Advice for Potential Travellers

There are a LOT of steps & hills, both ascending & descending, in addition, many steps are large, uneven or both, but that is the price to pay to experience such spectacular scenery. The Amalfi Coast & its coastal towns is both truly beautiful & impossibly romantic. ( & maybe even a little James Bond-like!) Whilst I would recommend a visit to Capri as an option for a free day, the Blue Grotto trip on Capri is definitely NOT worth the 30 Euros it costs & my friends & I felt ripped-off.

WALKING THE AMALFI COAST

A great holiday! Our hotel was so nice with such friendly staff and going out of their way to cope with food allergies. Our guide was smashing and our walks were very good. That coastline is so beautiful. The balance of walks, trips to Pompeii etc and free time was a good balance.

Most Inspirational Moment

Climbing down into the rim of Vesuvius! Terrifying but amazing!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Really good.

Advice for Potential Travellers

There are some steep ups and downs and at times the large number of steps can be hard on the legs.

This was a wonderful holiday, my first with Exodus . The walking and views are exceptional, the hotel , staff ,food could not be faulted . A great group, lots of fun and a really good time of year to go.

Most Inspirational Moment

That's easy, swimming in the sea and then drinking chilled proscecco sitting on the beach at Amalfi .

Thoughts on Group Leader

Eric our group leader was great. He organised everything (including the beach experience ) and led us on some amazing walks. He was very friendly and had some good stories to tell.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take a variety of clothes if you go in October as the days can be quite warm but it gets cooler in the evenings.

WALKING THE AMALFI COAST

The trip was excellent from start to finish. The walks were varied, all requiring different muscles from one day to the next! The hotel was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they looked after us all extremely well. One comment would be the rating of the walks as leisurely to moderate, I am pretty fit but wouldn’t have classified any of the walks as leisurely as there was a degree of skill or extra effort required on each day be it downward steps, climbing or being sure-footed on the more exposed pathways. Overall an excellently run trip in a beautiful part of Italy.

Most Inspirational Moment

Standing with my hand in a hole in the crater of mount Vesuvius feeling the hot air!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Albert was a great leader, even though he was ill for the first few days of the trip. He continued with the walks regardless even when I'm sure he would rather have been in bed with a lemsip than guiding us around Amalfi.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be aware there is a lot of climbing and steps both up and down hill. My calves were certainly made aware of this after the 2000+ steps downhill to Amalfi on day 2!

Totally wonderful: enthusiastic, patient, funny, he got to know everyone really quickly and we were soon a real family. I cannot praise Alejandro enough.

WALKING THE AMALFI COAST

It was a very nice holiday and organised well. I would definitely use Exodus again; however, I would look for something a bit more challenging. Eric the leader was excellent and really helpful plus he was great fun too.

Most Inspirational Moment

Vesuvius and the waterfall walk.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Eric the group leader was excellent. Top man!!

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are used to a lot of exercise it will likely not be challenging enough for you; however, it is a great trip.

WALKING THE AMALFI COAST

I had an amazing week in the Italian countryside. The hotel and staff were so kind and hospitable . The food was incredible and I loved the cooking demonstrations. Our Leader Christine was not only extremely knowledgeable extremely insightful, but very kind and looked after every member in the group. She taught us a lot about Italy and the Amalfi region. Our group of complete strangers ended up as a family within a short time. The hikes were absolutely breathtaking. So glad I did this trip and cannot wait for my next Exodus experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many...The Walk of the Gods, Positano. Taking the boat from Positano to Amalfi at the end of the trip to see where we hiked from a different perspective. Smaller wonderful local moments--having lemon soda at Antonio's local restaurant after our first day of hiking. visiting Pompeii and hiking around the rim of Mt. Vesuvius--walking to the town square and attending the local comedy festival in front of the beautiful church and enjoying the electrifying wonderful emergy of the Italian people and realizing it didn't matter that I did not understanding a word of Italian when the comedians did their routines! Ripe tomatoes, fresh pasta, lemons, fresh fish.....

Thoughts on Group Leader

Fantastic, first-rate, encouraging, funny, thoughtful and very kind
