Gastronomic Hike on the Path of the Gods with Food Tasting

5.0 · 37 reviews6 hours📍 Italy

About this tour

Walk the dramatic cliffside path connecting hilltop villages along Italy's Amalfi Coast whilst stopping to taste regional specialities. Over six hours, you'll cover moderate terrain with sweeping views of mountains and sea, punctuated by tastings of cured meats, artisanal cheeses, bread, olives and wine sourced directly from local producers. The route adapts to your fitness level, and vegetarian options are available throughout.

Highlights

  • Traverse the legendary Path of the Gods with coastal vistas
  • Taste house-made salami, prosciutto and aged cheeses
  • Sample wines from the guide's own vineyard
  • Learn traditional recipes passed through local families
  • Optional sunset picnic with Prosecco available
  • Hiking sticks and farm-fresh provisions included

What to expect

Expect a steady uphill walk with descents between villages, broken into segments between tastings. Each stop introduces regional produce—cured meats, soft cheeses, olives pressed locally, sourdough breads—paired with house wine or juice. Your guide shares how ingredients are grown and prepared using methods unchanged for decades. Views shift constantly: one moment you're among lemon groves, the next gazing down at the Tyrrhenian Sea. Vegetarians will find equal attention paid to produce-focused plates. The pace is deliberate; this isn't speed hiking.
