Ciao! My name is Rosa, I’m a professional walking and hiking guide across the Amalfi Coast and the Cilento National Park. I’ve been exploring these paths since I was 12 years old, and that childhood passion has become my life’s work and what I love to share with my guests today. I believe the best way to discover my region is on foot—it’s the most relaxing and truthful way to connect with the land. I think my tours are specials because I prefer the authentic places, where you can experience the real life. I prefer to think people coming here as travelers, not only tourists so I plan my tours by asking myself: "What would I want to experience if I were visiting this place for the first time?" Together, we’ll escape the crowded places to find "secret" spots reachable only by ancient trails. Along the way, it’s common to meet local farmers with their donkeys or working in the fields. They are as curious about you as you are about them, often stopping for a friendly chat that makes you feel truly welcome. To travel is also to taste! I'm a foodie and I love to share my favorite local spots—from family-run organic farms to home restaurants tucked away in vineyards. We can have a mozzarella-making class, a Limoncello or Wine tasting or plan a pasta workshop. People are very proud of their places, generous in sharing their knowledge and they will make you feel part of the family! I specialize in small, intimate groups (typically 4-7 people) to ensure a high-quality, personal connection. However, I can host up to 12 guests and I am happy to customize every detail based on your pace and preferences. Join me for an experience that will leave you with lifelong memories. I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fun—I can’t wait to meet you! * Licenced official guide of Vesuvius National Park from 2008 * part of AIGAE (Italian Association of Excursions Guides)from 2012 to 2021 * part of LAGAP (Italian Association of Professional Guides for Excursions) from 2022 * IELTS Certification in English Language - level C1 Advanced (UK in 2011) I cannot guide inside archeological sites, museums and churches.

What's the Path of Lemons on the Amalfi coast? Imagine... ** A WALK on an ANCIENT PATH that was the old connection way between the town of Maiori and Minori when the main coastal road wasn't built yet. The economy of this area was mostly based on lemon production and, even now, each family has a lemon garden! Lemons are grown on terraces descending towards the sea. **A JUMP in the PAST when donkeys were carrying lemons to the port of Maiori to be shipped abroad; even now we could meet them in the harvesting season; ** A GORGEOUS SCENERY The colors are vibrant: the blue of the sea, the green of the vegetation, the yellow of the lemons. A perfect spot for great photos! ;-) **LEMON CULTURE you learn about lifestyle and local culture: how we grow lemons; when and why we started; why our SFUSATO AMALFITANO lemon is so special **VISIT OF A LEMON GARDEN We stop in a lemon family farm, we have a fresh lemonade and we enter their secret lemon garden. That's very unique! **CONNECTION with LOCALS
We had a wonderful experience with Rosa, she is extremely knowledgeable about the area and she planned a visit to a beautiful lemon farm where we enjoyed a lemon granite/spritz. Rosa suggested we start early to avoid the heat, her flexibility was appreciated. Every detail was thought of; she suggested transportation options on through to where we should have lunch when we finished. Thank you for a wonderful day.
Thank you Rosa for a great time and hike. The perfect way to experience Amalfi.
Excelente experiencia con Rosa en el Path of Lemons. Dos familias con niños, disfrutamos del camino, las vistas espectaculares. Rosa conoce perfectamente el área. Disfrutamos unas granitas y Lemoncello spritz en un Lemon farm en el Camino. El Camino es moderado, había buena sombra, fue agradable a pesar del calor del verano. Gracias Rosa 😊
Rosa was amazing. Highly recommend her for any tour she offers. Additionally, her recommendations for the remainder of our stay in Italy were PERFETTO!
Such a lovely day with Rosa walking the Path of the Lemons! Our group of 9 landed in Naples at 8 am from the US and hit the trail at 11 am with Rosa from Maiori to Minori!! We started our time on the Amalfi Coast with a bang and Rosa was a perfect fit for us. She was pleasant and patient, guiding our group through the path who had been up for >24 hours. Her knowledge level was incredible and clearly is passionate about her work. She was so informative and really an absolute pleasure to spend time with. Each of us felt the same, she was great. I felt like Rosa also went over and above in offering recommendations to the area’s restaurants during our stay and even made a late lunch reservation for us when we concluded our Path of the Lemons tour. If you have an opportunity, please call her for your tour, you will not be disappointed! Thank you Rosa
Rosa was an excellent guide on a difficult rainy day tour. The general introduction to the geography of the Amalfi Coast while enjoying our Lemon pastries at De Riso was a wonderful start. She provided great insight to not only the Lemon path and its history but also the way of life on the Coast. Grazie mille Rosa!
