Approaching the Amalfi Coast is a thrill. Like arriving on a movie set. Sheer cliffs plunging into azure waters. Pebbly beaches shaded by colorful umbrellas. Fragrant lemon trees, gelato stands, outdoor cafés, friendly faces. Your trip has barely begun and you already feel rewarded. This isn't just another vacation. It's six glorious days in the realm of Italy's elite. Luxuriating in decadent villas. Hiking on paths that few visitors find. Sharing the friendships forged by your Trip Leaders. All that's left is to wonder: when can you return to the good life on the Amalfi Coast?
