Discover Italian Perfection in Praiano, Italy (Europe) for Six Days & Five Nights in a Two-Bedroom Apartment with Sea-View Terraces for Four, Including an Amalfi Lemon Tour and an Amalfi Sunset Cruise (Land Only)

Escape to the stunning scenery and paramount beauty of Italy's beloved Amalfi Coast and the alluring photogenic city of Positano! Whether you've been to Italy before or this is your first time, you'll fall in love with the wide spectrum of wonders this country has to offer, from ancient ruins to gorgeous relics, a captivating culture, breathtaking sites, and a passion for cuisine and Catholicism. A tour of a lemon garden will tantalize your senses, and a romantic sunset cruise along the Amalfi Coast is the most magnificent way to make the most of this stunning Mediterranean setting.

In the middle of the Amalfi Coast, between Positano and Amalfi, is the lesser-known but beautiful village of Praiano, which offers the quaint nature of an ancient fishing village, the calm of a summer resort, and the culture of a burgeoning arts scene. Boasting splendid panoramas, Praiano attracts visitors from around the world, drawn to its crystal-clear seas that are awarded the Bandiera Blu (Blue Flag) for cleanliness, and the friendly, laid-back ambiance. Praiano has the feel of a village while offering the cafes, shops and restaurants of a resort. Positano, like the legendary Sirens of Li Galli, never fails to seduce. Seen from the sea, Positano is set in a dramatic vertical panorama of colors; the green of the Monti Lattari, the white, pink and yellow of the Mediterranean houses, the silvery grey of its pebble beaches and the blue of the sea.

A central location in Praiano is ideal for exploring the Amalfi Coast, and you'll get to take full advantage of those captivating vistas from your apartment's terraces! Live like an Italian in an apartment that features a large living area with a sofa bed for two adults, satellite TV, air conditioning, a fully-equipped kitchen and two double bedrooms, and most importantly, a sea view terrace! Relax at the end of the day with an aperitif or an alfresco dinner as you watch the azure waters of the Mediterranean. Both bedrooms have queen size beds, private bathrooms and balconies overlooking the sea view terrace, as well as another large sea-view terrace equipped with soft rattan armchairs and tables. It's the perfect place to soak up the romantic scenery of Praiano!

Explore the gorgeous hills of Amalfi during a special group tour at a lemon garden. Set at vertiginous heights and with an enveloping fragrance, you will get a taste of the organic quality that the simple life has to offer. A local expert will teach you the secrets of making limoncello (a typical Amalfian liqueur), its chocolate version (lemonciok) and lemon cream. Sip on some fresh lemonade, delight in a lemon salad and dig in to a lemon cake!

Amalfi at dusk is definitely a romantic setting. With a warm palette of colors slowly painting the sky above the sparkling lights of the scattered hill towns, a sunset cruise will highlight all that is perfect about the Amalfi Coast. Your private boat tour will pick you up at the Praiano Port before cruising along the spectacular shoreline and stopping at evocative sights. Savor an aperitif on board while enjoying the sunset!
