Pompeii holds an intense fascination for visitors today. Following the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 A.D., Pompeii lay buried and forgotten for hundreds of years. The town is high on the list of the Wonders of the World and the excavations that begun in the 18th Century are still being carried out today. You have 2 hours at Pompeii to walk through the ancient streets of the city where you can

see Baths, Forums and Villas built by the prosperous Romans in the year 80 B.C. Marvel at the fabulously preserved frescos which adorned the walls and floors of the Villas. When the catastrophe of 79 A.D. occurred Herculaneum was submerged under a torrent of mud and lava that hardened into a soft tufa (a kind of course rock) that preserved many of the wooden parts of houses and household objects which can be seen today. A large part of the town is still buried, and certainly many art treasures are still to be found.

POMPEII & VESUVIUS

(A-21)

Pompeii holds an intense fascination for visitors today. Following the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 A.D., Pompeii lay buried and forgotten for hundreds of years. The town is high on the list of the Wonders of the World and the excavations begun in the 18th Century are still being carried out today. Our guide will take you slowly through some of the ancient streets of Pompeii where you can see Baths, Forums and Villas built by the prosperous Romans in the year 80 B.C. Marvel at the fabulously preserved Frescos which adorned the walls and floors of the Villas. Even if your interests do not lie in history, this is an archaeological site that cannot fail to impress you. Mount Vesuvius dominates the Bay of Naples. It is the only active volcano on the mainland of Europe. The slopes were once covered with vineyards and woods and provided an innocent looking backdrop for the bustling town below. The coach will take you to within 1.000 metres of the top of Vesuvius and from here you can walk to the very top and admire the splendid panoramic views across the bay. (From the blackened crater rises a single plume of smoke, a reminder that the volcano is only sleeping for now…)

Our guide will take you slowly through some of the ancient streets of Pompeii where you can see Baths, Forums and Villas built by the prosperous Romans in the year 80 B.C. Marvel at the fabulously preserved Frescos which adorned the walls and floors of the Villas. When the catastrophe of 79 A.D. occurred, Herculaneum was submerged under a torrent of mud and lava that hardened into a soft tufa (a kind of course rock) that preserved many of the wooden parts of houses and household objects which can be seen today. A large part of the town is still buried, and certainly many art treasures are still to be found. Despite the relatively close proximity of the two sites, there was a significant difference in architecture and overall lifestyle which can be seen when walking through the sites. Pompeii was a commercial centre and survived as a city for this reason, whereas Herculaneum was a small fishing community which by the first century had transomed into a fashionable holiday resort, given its coastal location.

For lovers of hiking and walking outdoors, the Path of the Gods on the Amalfi Coast is a 'must'. It seems fitting that the local people named the walk the Path of the Gods. The route offers incredible views of the coastal landscapes, mountains and the island of Capri, reaching around 500 metres above sea level as it snakes through rocky terrain, Mediterranean bush, oak trees and terraces cut into dizzying slopes. The walk begins in Nocelle, a tiny hamlet seemingly frozen in time above the thronging streets of Positano. There are plenty of gorgeous views to enjoy as you progress along the walk, which varies between altitudes of just over 600 and a little more than 400 metres above sea level. The deep ravines and yellow, rocky cliffs above and below the path are accompanied by abandoned cave dwellings, lime kilns, goat houses, olive groves and picturesque terraces packed with vines. The views are a continual surprise and delight at any time of the year: derelict farmhouses cling to the terraces, the ancient convent of San Domenico appears a long way below, Positano's pastelcoloured houses emerge from behind a bend, and of course the sea which dominates the horizon, sparkling with the bluest of blues as the coastline stretches out far ahead into the distance towards Capri.

THREE-COURSE ITALIAN HOME COOKING CLASS PRIVATE LESSONS AT YOUR HOLIDAY HOME ‘Life is a combination of magic and pasta’ (Federico Fellini). Food is, and has always been, a way into a country’s local culture. Neapolitan cuisine has ancient historical roots that date back to the Greco-Roman period, which was enriched over the centuries by the influence of the different cultures that controlled Naples and its kingdoms, such as that of Aragon and France. As such, Neapolitan cuisine offers a balance between dishes based on rural ingredients (pasta, vegetables, cheese) given the regions fertile farming lands and seafood dishes (fish, crustaceans, molluscs) given its coastal proximity. The class includes the preparation of three courses: appetisers, main course and dessert OR entrée, main course and dessert.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE MAKING CLASS (D-07)

Visit a local cheese factory and learn how the famous Mozzarella cheese is prepared. Sorrento is home to the fior di latte, also known as la treccia (as it is shaped like a plait) mozzarella. Made from cow’s milk, the freshness and flavour of this cheese is unique to the area and produced still today by hand using local, fresh milk, which is worked into a creamy cheese and woven into braids and twists. The tour begins in the farm with a visit to the cows and calves. Then we go to the dairy where milk is curdled. Raw milk is heated to a 38°C temperature then liquid calf rennet (or kid rennet powder) is added and the milk is left to coagulate for about 15-20 minutes. At this point caciottine (creamy ricotta like cheese) can be made. After this, the curd is broken into grains as large as a nut. The curd is left to ferment for about 3-4 hours and then it is cut into strips and put into containers where it

will be worked in hot water. Then comes the most creative and amusing phase of the mozzarella making process, pressing, squeezing and manipulating the cheese. This class gives you the opportunity to experience firsthand the traditional method of mozzarella cheese making from a local, family run cheese maker whose family has been making cheese in the area for over 100 years! Following the guided tour of the farm and making of mozzarella cheese and caciottine, sit back and enjoy a taste of salami from the farms own production and provolone del Monaco.
