Journey by boat* to Amalfi, the rocky coast's namesake town. Formerly a maritime republic, Amalfi puts a historic spin on the seaside hubs, containing cobblestone piazzas and towering mosaicked cathedrals.

According to legend, spider bites cause the women to dance with feverish energy.
Discover one of Puglia's most impressive natural landscapes: the underground complex of the Castellana Caves, a vast labyrinth of limestone chambers adorned by clusters of stalactites and stalagmites, formed over millennia. This afternoon, arrive in Alberobello, a whimsical city known for its trulli, stone huts with cone-shaped roofs. Meander with your guide through a labyrinth of these gnomish houses, some adorned with symbols carrying religious or astrological meanings.
