5.00Our day was filled with delicious food and wine, glorious views, and great guides. The trail was easy to manage, and Franco is so warm and welcoming. We felt like family at the end of the day. Our group thought this was the best guided hike we had experienced! Both Franco and Angela were enjoyable to talk with and provided great information on the area. A perfect day!

5.00By far the best, experience. Our guide Franco was the amazing ! He was very knowledgeable and took his time, explaining the landscape and stopped several times along the hike to assist in taking pictures and video. The lunch was the most authentic experience. Definitely come prepared with proper footwear, hat & water. Grazie Franco!
Amazing hike, with amazing people

5.00Franco and Angela are so knowledgeable about the path of gods hike. We had an incredible time, they made us feel like family. Booking with Franco helped us understand the nature of positano, the beauty the history of the people and land. Incredible hike, wear comfortable shoes, it takes about 3-4 hours total. They provided us with delicious food made from the city of Agerola, picked us up and dropped us back off at the hotel. Franco knows wine and makes his own, gave us a bottle of his white wine from his farm! We can’t wait to come back and hike with Franco and Angela again!!!
Amazing hike- highly recommend!!

5.00We had a wonderful time on the Gastronomic Tour on the Path of the Gods. Framco is so knowledgeable about all of the history and culture in the area. He also led us on a good pace that was not too challenging. We loved our meal and homemade wine at the shepherd’s house. Finally, the views at all times were incredible. Highly recommend!!
Best Experience in Italy!

5.00This was truly the best part of our entire trip in Italy! Franco was an amazing tour guide- personable, funny, interesting, and down to earth. He made a picnic for us with food from his garden, took lots of photos with us, and was extremely knowledgable about the terrain and everything about the area. Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

5.00Franco and Angela were so kind, fun and helpful. The hike was very challenging for me, and Franco helped me every step of the way. We had fun stops along the way, we had a refreshing lemon slushy and delicious bruschetta and goat cheese. Lots of laughs when we saw a parade of goats walk by! The views were beautiful, overall it was a very rewarding experience.
Spectacular

5.00It’s a beautiful hike , pack water and wear shoes for hiking . Franco is the best guide he gives you lots of information and great hospitality. So many wonderful things to see . People with knee problems or other serious injury should consider contacting guide before attempting some parts can be tricky and its a long walk but well worth every minute just spectacular
The very best Positano experience!!

5.00This experience was fabulous due to our fantastic guide, Franco!!! The hike was more strenuous than we expected, but we had many rewards along the way! Sweet treat just off the path, an authentic simple meal at a Shepard’s home and finally arriving at Franco’s home for an unforgettable meal/experience!! They treated us like family (group of 10 friends) and we will never forget this meal or the wonderful people they are. It was a big celebration complete with vintage musical instruments that brought so much joy. It became the best reward of the day!! I highly recommend this experience! It was an accomplishment to complete the hike as it seemed more than “moderate” as listed. A+++
What an Amazing experience with Franco!!

5.00Franco was such an amazing guide ! He was so friendly and inviting from the moment we met him. He offered to pick us up from the hotel since we didn’t have a car. Not only was the hike absolutely stunning with 360 views of amalfi coast at the highest points (you literally get above the clouds)… but During the hike, Franco taught us so much about the traditional Italian culture and his village. He brought us amazing local pastries, wine, and cheeses and we got to eat on a little picnic bench during our first break of the hike. He also took us to meet locals on the hike who gave us frozen lemonade and he even brought us to the villages shepherds house, where they sang local songs and even gave us pasta and homemade wine! This tour was truly worth the money. We felt like we made a friend in Franco! He was truly amazing and I highly recommend doing this hike with him. Don’t try to do this hike on your own. It would be difficult to know where to go and you will miss out on all the rich culture and stories that Franco provided.
