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. I can do city trekking tours or walking, hiking and trekking tours along paved path or mountain walks

Overview of your Ravello tour

This walking/hiking tour is a great way to visit three of its most fascinating villages and enjoy some of the most astonishing views. Ravello was the town of the richest families of Amalfi, there are sumptuous villas like Villa Cimbrone, with its marvelous gardens and its "Infinity terrace" facing the sea from the height of 400 meters; Villa Rufolo, the place where Wagner was inspired for its work, the Parsifal. Ravello it's also a great place for shopping: ceramics and sandals are produced here! And a place for a good pizza cooked in a wooden oven in a nice garden. A nice descending walk/hike into the Dragon valley (or through Castiglione) will leads us to Atrani, a tiny village looking like a nativity scene. That was the stage for the series Ripley. Around the corner we find Amalfi, once a powerful independent republic in the Mediterranean area, its majestic moorish cathedral, the main square with many cafes, where you can taste the Lemon delight and enjoy the special atmosphere.

I would highly recommend Rosa for private tours of the Amalfi Coast! My mother and I spent a wonderful two days with Rosa, including the Path of the Gods hike and walking tours of Ravello, Amalfi, and Atrani. Rosa was incredibly accommodating and attentive to our needs, and she was happy to make adjustments to the itinerary so that the day worked perfectly for us. She was also extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area. Hearing her stories and learning about the history of each place made the experience feel so much more meaningful and special. Rosa also helped arrange private transfers for us, which made getting around the coast incredibly easy and stress-free. We had such a wonderful experience with Rosa and only wished we had booked more tours with her so we could have explored even more of the Amalfi Coast! She was a pleasure to spend the day with, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone visiting the area. Thank you Rosa!

This was the most spectacular day of our 2 week European vacation. Rosa, our tour guide handled every logistical detail! It was immediately evident that obtaining tickets at the ferry counter at the port was not an organized process. And, the buses running in Amalfi do not run on time, nor consistently, and there are multiple different lines- this would have been completely over-whelming and we probably would have even been late back to port. Ravello was idyllic, and we loved Amalfi also. Rosa accommodated what we wanted to do, along with providing us with a personalized, local experience. She even put up with my awful Italian!. We look forward to returning to Salerno for a hiking adventure with her next. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.

Rosa was an excellent guide. Great communication and extremely knowledgeable. The tour was the perfect for our family, however our 11 year old daughter began to run out of gas at the end. I would recommend doing this tour early in the day, so it’s not so hot. Wear proper sneakers or hiking shoes. I would highly recommend Rosa as a tour guide and I would recommend this tour for people looking for great views, great history, and a solid workout.

We spent three unforgettable days with Rosa, an exceptional guide. If you want to experience the magic of the Path of the Gods, the Amalfi Coast, and Capri, she is the perfect choice. Her tours take you away from the crowds, immersing you in breathtaking scenery and the rich local culture. Her knowledge, humor, and warmth make every moment enjoyable, and she is wonderfully patient with those who may not hike as effortlessly as they once did! We also appreciated her thoughtful planning—adjusting for weather, advising on ferries and taxis, and ensuring we were always where we needed to be. Her expertise made everything seamless. There’s still so much to explore, and we’re already planning to book more of her tours on our next visit. If you have the chance to experience the Amalfi Coast with Rosa, don’t hesitate—you’re in for an unforgettable adventure!

This was our second tour of our trip that we booked with Rosa, and it was just as amazing as the others. Not only is she very well-educated about the history of the Amalfi Coast, but she is also extremely knowledgeable about the local vegetation. She loves her country and is very passionate about it. There wasn't a question that she couldn't answer. She is an absolute sweetheart and made the tours interesting and fun. She always went the extra mile to ensure we had a great time. We highly recommend booking a tour with Rosa if you're visiting the Amalfi Coast!

We had a fabulous experience with Rosa - prior to our hike from Ravello to Amalfi, Rosa quickly answered any questions that we had & could immediately tell that she was warm, helpful, knowledgeable & that we would be well taken care of & enjoy spending time with Rosa. As it played out on the day of our hike there were unanticipated road closures along the coast & Rosa changed our timing to make it all work. The actual hike was wonderful - one of our Italy trip highlights - would highly recommend!
