AMALFI DRIVE
The “Amalfi Drive” is said to be the most spectacular road in Europe
and from Sorrento, the winding cliff top road offers breathtaking
panoramic views at every bend. Each spot is a world of its own, a
fantastic world which dazzles the imagination and inspires
unforgettable impressions. After a view over Positano,
first stop at Amalfi, which gives its name to the whole coast on
which it lies. Once a thriving Marine Republic, powerful and
prosperous and now a thriving holiday resort. The unmistakeable
cluster of white tightly packed houses rising up the hillside is
dominated by the beautiful Cathedral, which stands superbly on the
top of a great flight of steps leading up from the main square.
Housed in the magnificent Cathedral are the remains of the Patron
Saint of Amalfi and also Scotland – Saint Andrew. From Amalfi we
visit Ravello, which nestles eleven hundred feet above the sea in
the hillside. We visit the Villa Rufolo which gave the musician
Richard Wagner the inspiration to create part of one of his most
famous operas, Parsifal: "The Garden of Klingsor".
