Walking Trips with B&R

See the world others miss, one step at a time.

With “slow down to see the world” as a guiding principle, it’s no wonder we’re fans of walking. Traversing by foot is the ultimate slow mode of transport—no other activity allows you more flexibility to stop and smell the roses (or wild rosemary), meet the locals and drink in the scenery.

DAY IN THE LIFE: Walking

8:02 am

Roll over in bed for a little spooning. Unfortunately, bedmate has left for the Herald Tribune and cornetto downstairs. Life on Capri is a bowl of cherries, despite the lack of spoon.

8:37 am

Private launch from Marina Piccola to mainland. Acqua minerale, sea air and sunshine make every day a good hair day.

9:18 am

Shuttle from Marina Grande to another world. It’s called the Pathway of the Gods (Sentiero degli Dei) and here the aforementioned sea air is scented with lemon (groves).

9:34 am

Take in mountain views that surely the gods themselves crafted. Remind yourself how fortunate you are.

10:27 am

A plaque points out that an economist named Giustino Fortunato named the pathway. Remind yourself how Fortunato you are.

12:32 pm

Salvatore’s salsiccia, bocconcini and pane rustico next to a tiny stone hut. Doze off under lemon tree.

2:14 pm

Awake to see Salvatore’s hand-penned (in Italian) salsiccia recipe tucked into your shirt pocket. It seems as though you were raving about it.

2:25 pm

Faced with a fork in the road, you take the path more often travelled. It makes no difference—they’re both stunning.

3:38 pm

The path finished, an awaiting vehicle whisks you to the Hotel Le Sirenuse in Positano. Bellini? Molto buono!

5:11 pm

Partner heads off to the spa. You pull off a truly impressive cannonball and soak up sun poolside.

7:05 pm

Have a view-inspired chat with the two architects in the group about building on hillsides. Talk about steep learning curves!

8:23 pm

Adjourn to dinner under the candlelight of true chandeliers, the sparkling lights of the town and yachts below. Sip grappa and share a laugh with owner Antonio, whose noble ancestry vacationed in this very room a couple of centuries ago. A setting fit for a duke, indeed.

Signature

We use premium hotels that are unique expressions of the region. Often they’ve had a previous life as a monastery or a castle, but in every case they offer an exceptionally comfortable stay.

Bistro

These are stylish 4-star properties that offer a casual and comfortable stay. Often without a 24-hour concierge or room service, they tend to be smaller family-run hotels that are perfect for the region.

 PRICE FROM

Go Bespoke

We craft extraordinary experiences, tailor made to meet your every need,
with every stitch of every day crafted just the way you want it.

Accolades

Most memorable B&R moment... being told we would have sandwiches for lunch during our hike on the Path of the Gods and voila--out of nowhere a tiny little home with a sign that read "private party" appeared. We climbed up the steep stairs and a feast fit for kings and queens awaited us. This was our 11th B&R trip and we are always amazed at how you make magic happen. Truly a spectacular day!
