Italy’s Siren Coast is beloved for its tiered villages, lemon groves, breathtaking sea views — and yes, those narrow, twisting, heart-stopping coastal roads. Skip the drive and absorb the beauty during a customized, self-guided hike organized by On Foot Holidays. The route begins in Amalfi and winds through Praiano, Positano and Nerano to Sorrento, with stays at local inns, B&Bs and small hotels. There’s also an option for adding on nights on the island of Capri. Absolutely no luggage schlepping is involved — your bags will be waiting for you each night when you arrive at your accommodations.

Along the way, take in the sites that this stretch of coastline is so well known for: Ravello’s cathedral, Torre dello Ziro castle, famous gardens of Villa Cimbrone, the hill village and medieval paths of Pogerola, the Sentiero degli Dei (Path of the Gods), shopping in Positano, the beaches of Marina del Cantone, and the village of Massa Lubrense. Each day offers routes of varying difficulty with choices for beachside relaxation. Extensions to the journey include staying on in Sorrento as a base for day trips to Pompeii, Herculaneum, Vesuvius and Naples.
