Ravello sits on a terrace 365 metres above the sea. Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone are the reason many travellers climb here: gardens, belvederes and a quieter evening than the shoreline towns.
Plan your visitSITA buses from Amalfi (about 25 minutes). Taxis from the valley. No ferry — the village is inland and uphill.
Walk the centre. The path down to Minori is a long, beautiful descent for those who enjoy stairs.
