I met Gennaro on a hiking tour with a UK touring company in 2024, and the experience stayed with me long after it ended. It was so special that I felt a real pull to share it with some of my dearest friends. So we did. We teamed up with our yoga instructor—who had moved to Spain in 2025—and together we planned a week-long yoga and hiking adventure with Gennaro. I didn’t think anything could top what we experienced in 2024—but I was wrong. Gennaro somehow made it even more fun. Beyond the incredible knowledge he shared about each region we hiked, he brought us to local farms, where we gathered around tables filled with authentic, unforgettable food, and immersed ourselves in ancient music and dancing with locals. He was incredibly patient and accommodating with every change we requested along the way. He wasn’t just our tour guide—he made sure every detail was exactly what we wanted, from transportation to spa options to tracking down the best gelato spots. Gennaro made sure this wasn’t just a hiking trip— he made sure we felt welcomed into the heart of the Amalfi Coast and its people. Mille grazie, Gennaro!!!

Gennaro organised and led our hiking group (21) for one week with a positive attitude, great flexibility and kindness. He shared the local (extremely rich!) history and culture with a natural passionate approach. Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful hiking week in the Amalfi Coast thanks to Gennaro, who organised everything (hike programme, accommodation, meals, transport , cultural and other attractions) very well. On top, he is patient, flexible and has a great sense of humour. We did the amazing Path of Gods with him and also the Valle delle Ferriere, Ravello, Capri, Amalfi, Positano and Tremonti Valley. He also arranged us one day visit of Herculaneum and Pompei, so we learned about the region’s history even more. We wholeheartedly recommend his hikes and services and will remember this week for long. Thank you !
Hiking the Path of the Gods with Gennaro was the highlight of our trip. The views were breathtaking, but what made it unforgettable was Gennaro’s knowledge, warmth, and storytelling. He shared local history, took great photos, and made us feel welcome and at ease. More than just a hike - it was a meaningful, authentic experience. Highly recommended!
My partner and I had a fantastic experience with Gennaro. He provided clear and detailed instructions on where and how to meet, including pinned locations and helpful advice on parking, ferry, and bus transport after the walk. He was incredibly considerate of our different fitness levels, adjusting the pace and allowing for extra breaks when needed. Being based so close to the Path of the Gods was a real bonus, and having Gennaro guide us through it with such fascinating insights about the area made it all the more memorable. We’re so glad we took on this challenging activity – every step was absolutely worth it.
After much research about the Pathway of the Gods and the various guide and hiking options, I decided to use Gennaro. What a great choice! From the first moment of contact, Gennaro was very interested in our needs, what we wanted to get out of the experience and offered a few different options. Gennaro choose the best hike for us which was a loop from and to Bomerano. He also kept in constant contact with us until the day of the hike. Gennaro is not only an expert hiker, he is also an expert in the history and stories about the Pathway of the Gods. We received history, geography and topography lessons all in one. It was truly fantastic. He is very passionate about the history of his home area and about his love of hiking. His passion is contagious and we thoroughly enjoyed all his information. He also gave us many insights and information about Italy's history through the ages. This was very helpful, as I personally like to be immersed in the culture of where I am visiting. After the hike we had a nice espresso at his friend Mario's hotel. Thank you Mario! Gennaro also took many photos of all of us which he forwarded to us. Look no further, Gennaro is the guide for you.

Fantastic experience doing this walk with Gennaro. While the views were amazing it was his insight into the Amalfi region that made it really special. He was knowledgeable and passionate and I came away with a great understanding of what makes this area so magical. I would highly recommend this tour.
Highly recommend this wonderful walking/hiking trip with stunning scenery, every day a different interesting walk but Walk of the Gods a huge trip highlight - all shared with a lovely group of co-walkers. Our Guide Gennaro was kind, patient, informative and good humoured - nothing was too much trouble Hotel staff all so nice and helpful. Great trip!
Had the pleasure of hiking with Gennaro for one week along the Amalfi coast and Capri. Great tour guide with lots of local knowledge and contacts to get you anything you may need. He adjusted the hiking speed to meet our group's capability and that allowed us to have more time at destination to wander around. I would not have had the same experience without him and probably would have walked by some of the sites without realizing what they were.
We started from Bomerano and hiked down to Positano. We hired a driver (120 E) to take us from Positano to Bomerano and the drive took almost an hour on the windy roads. The hike to Nocelle was beautiful but strenuous. Moderately technical and definitely requires good hiking shoes. Also bring water, and sunscreen in warmer months. We took the stairs down (1800 steps!) from Nocelle to Positano. Rough! Our legs ached. Then walked about half an hour on the road back to the center of Positano. It's a busy road with no sidewalks. The entire hike took us about 4 1/2 hours. We did this in late October, and it was quite challenging, but worth it! I imagine it would be very difficult in the heat of summer and would avoid if it's wet as much of the path is rock which would be slippery. For reference we are an active 50 year old couple, but not hikers
Absolutely Stunning Experience, with such beautiful Scenery and a Guide -- Gennaro -- who made it so special and interesting. Nothing was too difficult for him. Have our so much attention and information.
Gennaro was our guide in a very hot August and he led us on a number of walks. His rechnical skills are on point - if you wanted to do some serious hiking he'd be great. For the routes we did, he led the walks with q pace suitable for everyone, stopped frequently (vital on the heat to stay hydrated ' on that note i think he knows where all the water fountains in Italy are!), and shared his knowledge about myths, legends, landscapes, ways of life,recipies and drinks! Gennaro is a lovely warm and kind human. Enjoy your time with him.
While the hike was short due to the weather, it was fabulous! Amazing views and a beautiful hike! Our guide Gennaro was knowledgeable and passionate about the area and was happy to share all of that with us. Patient when we fell behind or ran ahead. Walk of the Gods was only a part of our 8 day experience and every one of those days brought a different adventure! Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
This is the most popular hike to do along the Amalfi Coast and it is famous for its jaw-dropping views over Positano. There are several different ways to hike the Path of the Gods. The most common way to do this hike is to start in Bomerano, hike to Nocelle, and then continue the walk to Positano. By doing it this way, it is a one-way hike and mostly downhill. We took a bus from Furore to Bomerano. We reached Bomerano at 7.30AM and we started our hike. Once on the trail, we walked a mix of graded dirt and gravel trails, up and down large stone steps, and over rockier, uneven trails, over the course of the next few kilometers. Once we rounded the bend beyond the trail junction, the views really opened up. On this section of trail, there were a few ups and downs, but nothing too strenuous. We took our time, enjoyed the views, and took lots of photos. We loved this section of the Path of the Gods hike. Here are a few photos. For the next 2 km we were treated to breathtaking views along the Amalfi Coast. Towards the final third of the Path of the Gods trail until Nocelle, we started to head in and out of the forest. We lost some of the wonderful views, but since it was a hot day, the shade provided a nice break from the heat. The Path of the Gods trail’s first leg ends in Nocelle. There are a few small restaurants in this hillside hamlet. We stopped at the very first one, Chiosco del Sentiero degli Dei, and we all had a lemon granita, which is a lemon slush. Once we rested for 15 – 20 mins at Nocelle and we decided to resume our hike to Positano. The walk to Positano was 1,792 stairs from Nocelle to Amalfi Drive and then walk about 1.5 km to Positano. It took us about 30 minutes to descend the stairs and another 20 minutes to walk into Positano. A must do when you are in Amalfi
We had such an amazing experience with Gennaro on our Path of Gods hike. He was an incredible guide and gave us so much history on the path, Amalfi and the surrounding area that truly enhanced our experience. He even gave us recommendations for restaurants and experiences in the local area. I would recommend this tour and hike with Gennaro to anyone who is visiting this area!
Gennaro’s great passion and an excellent knowledge of his home region makes every day and every hike a truly wonderful and memorable experience.
What a beautiful part of the world! Thank you so much for showing us your home and being a fabulous tour guide! Thanks Gennaro! 🍋🧭📜
I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to tour the Amalfi Coast with Gennaro. He is a local of Amalfi who truly loves where he lives and passionately shares his stories. Gennaro knew all the best places to take us on the hiking paths. He also knew the perfect times to start his tours to avoid crowds. Gennaro is kind, funny and a perfect guide. I highly recommend him for any tour of the Amalfi Coast! Sarah
My mom and I went on our first out-of-the-U.S. trip together and we had a wonderful time! Getting there was a bit rocky due to flights being cancelled, but our group and tour guide made us feel welcome immediately. I loved the walks and the views, and our tour guide Gennaro knows this whole area like the back of his hand. We couldn't have asked for a more helpful and kind guide for this trip.
A perfect day walking along the coast. Gennaro is knowledgable, calm, friendly and a fantastic guide.
What an incredible adventure! The walk itself was so beautiful, and took us through mountainous canopies with waterfalls and breathtaking views of the Amalfi coast. Our guide, Gennaro, went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best time possible. He was cool, calm and collected when one of our fellow walkers fell and hurt herself, and made sure she (and everyone else) was safe and well looked after. Highly recommend Gennaro as a tour guide. He is an exceptional human and very knowledgeable and experienced at what he does
The hike with Gennaro is amazing! He is very knowledgeable about the history of amalfi. I would highly recommend booking a hike with him. It’s truly is a magical beautiful hike of the path of gods. You can see positano during the hike. I will never forget our special time and hike. Memories were made and now he is our friend too! :)

Gennaro expertly led our group of 10 along The Path of the Gods, he is very knowledgeable about the geography and history of the area and his passion for his country and particularly his home town of Amalfi is very infectious. We had a perfect day, thank you Gennaro - you are THE BEST!
Gennaro was a fantastic guide in all if our walks on the Amalfi Coast. Clearly passionate and knowledgeable about his beautiful corner of Italy. We walked with a reasonable size group and Gennaro was able to Taylor the walks to suit the range of abilities. Very friendly guide who got the balance just right. Spent time sharing his knowledge as well as giving everyone space to just soak up the magnificent scenery, flora and fauna. If we get the opportunity to walk on the Amalfi Coast again it would be a pleasure to go on a walk with Gennaro again. Jon and Megan
