ALONG THE AMALFI COAST
Cooking, Rambling, Relaxing
April 6-12, 2008

“For those natives of Amalfi who are called to Paradise, Judgement Day will be just another day.” — a plaque in the center of Amalfi. Experience the jewel that is Italy's
Amalfi Coast — one of Europe's most spectacular coastlines —
as we spend a fun-filled week with a true insider's perspective. Local
families of the area (including a renowned professional chef) invite
us into their own homes for cooking sessions (and to admire their fabulous
views along the Amalfi Coast), and we also enjoy some easy-going (optional)
walks to tucked-away, untrampled points of interest in the dramatic
mountains offering stunning views along the coast. Of course, we’ll
have to make stops at some of the Amalfi Coast’s most delightful
villages — Ravello, Amalfi, Positano. But we’ve also incorporated
some lesser-known sights that most visitors will never see. A very special
visit to long-famous Capri is also featured where we enjoy the island’s
delights in a unique way. We've even incorporated an in-depth look at
one of the world's most incredible archeological sites — the excavations
of the ancient Roman city of Pompei. |

Our cooking sessions are fun and informal as we learn about the delicious kinds of pasta, main courses, and desserts that are typical in this part of Italy. We won’t get bogged down in complicated meals; you’ll see how straightforward and enjoyable Italian cooking can be! Each day our easy-going and very personable
guide (a true aficionado of good food!) will open our eyes to the marvels
of this area — from the 3000-year-old, culture-steeped, bustling
metropolis of Naples to the breathtaking beauty of the Amalfi Coast. |
