This picturesque 50km stretch of Mediterranean coastline is peppered with charming villages and has become one of Italy's most desirable destinations. Join the world's elite on a luxury Amalfi Coast holiday.
Luxury Amalfi Coast holidays are located in one of the most beautiful stretches of scenery in the Mediterranean, the Amalfi Coast is best viewed on a thrilling drive along the "road of a thousand bends".
This twisting road from Sorrento to Salerno contains endless surprises; although the hairpin bends around steep cliffs plunging into the azure sea are not for the faint-hearted!
Positano, the most scenic of the villages en route, dates back to the 10th Century and was once an important seaport.
