Path of the Gods: Gastronomic Hike with a Local Guide

This was an extraordinary experience! Our guide Franco gave us an fantastic day together at the Path of the Gods. The transportation from my hotel was like a roadtrip along the amalficoast and after the lunch our hike started. Franco’s knowledge about history, fauna and the area made the hike unforgettable. We visited a goatfarm in the hills and tasted newly made mozzarella with homemade honey while watching a spectacular view. The hospitality was really heartwarming. I could have stayed longer. God to know that the hike is demanding and you have to be able to manage many steps and hiking uphill.

Amazing day! Franco and Angela were incredible hosts. The walk had incredible views of the area, but the truly wonderful parts of the day were the stops at various family homes to sample their food and drinks. Franco was a knowledgeable guide along the path, frequently taking a moment to give directions to other travelers of the path without guides. Safety was a concern of mine, but Franco gave directions as we went to avoid dangerous spots. The terrain is moderately difficult with inclines, slick rocks, loose rocks, and narrow paths at times. Franco shared excellent foods that he and Angela prepared and local cheese products made fresh that morning from the town. I would highly recommend this tour!

We had an absolutely exceptional experience with our guide. From the very beginning, they made the whole day feel fun, relaxed, and genuinely memorable. Their local knowledge was incredible — not only sharing fascinating stories and history, but also introducing us to amazing local products and hidden gems we would never have discovered ourselves. What truly stood out was their kind heart, warmth, and passion for what they do. They made everyone feel welcome and looked after, creating such a positive atmosphere throughout the day. It felt less like a tour and more like spending time with a knowledgeable local friend. Thank you for making our day so special — highly recommended to anyone wanting an authentic and enjoyable experience!

Franco was a great guide for the path. Pickup and return to our hotel was a big advantage. Lots of interesting facts learned during the 40 minute drive to Bomerano. The walk was incredible. Again, Franco described history, identified fauna and treated us to delicious, fresh squeezed lemonade and orange juice along the hike. After our walk, we visited a small grocery that featured farm to table cheeses and salami, olives and wine. A perfect way to spend our day. Highly recommend.

Angela war super freundlich und super kompetent. Mehr Service und kundenorientiertes Verhalten kann man nicht erwarten. Sie, aber auch ihr Kollege Franco den wir kurz kennenlernen durften, sind wahnsinnig nett und zuvorkommend. Sie haben uns den Tag verzaubert und uns hinten raus noch abseits der gebuchten Leistung in soviel unterstützt. Wir sind regelrecht sprachlos vor Begeisterung und hoffen den Kontakt halten zu können. Volle Empfehlung auf voller Linie und jeden Cent wert.

Wow! What a perfect day! We highly recommended this tour. Franco was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He introduced us to many wonderful people and places with amazing food and spectacular views. He shared key insights into the area, the biodiversity and the culture. And he allowed us to go at the right pace to experience everything without feeling rushed or tired. We arrived back in Positano feeling very happy and satisfied with the day. Thank you, Franco! You are the best guide and this was one of our favorite memories of Italy.
