HOW TO WALK FROM RAVELLO TO AMALFI -The Positano Diaries - EP 61

[@jenjem5810]

How I would thrive on going to the cemetery! Many focus on keeping the memorial tombs very beautiful.Quite organized, with garden gloves, trowel, potting soil,watering bucket flower plants, a wonderful attitude.....

[@aperitivo50]

Hello Everywhere !

[@angelapa9513]

Ciao Carlo

[@sjt609]

Buon pomeriggio Carlo e Nicki! xxx

[@bernicebabe4154]

Kia ora Carlo! Thank you so much for the walk, Nicki. I found it so interesting and, as our chances of ever getting there are very slim, I appreciated being able to experience it vicariously.

[@daniellereid01]

Ciao Carlo! I hope you're doing well xox

[@amorson3035]

Hello everywhere! lol ......watching from Toronto. Today it is 19'C and sunny! Positano weather. (not normally like this)

[@sjt609]

Positano Diaries my favourite vlog on KZbin, thank you Nicki👏🏼! Wonderful tour Alessandro and no doubt you'll agree that the After Eight chocolate are yummy any time of day. I loved hearing the church music and singing in the background - it reminded me so much of various regions in Italy. Whoa, those steps are even more steep than your steps Nicki and Carlo! I truly appreciate your video/vlog and it's a LOVELY break from all the chaos of the election, the global pandemic, crashed economy, racial pain and city violence that is bombarding the news. Watching your video's I just sit back and take a long breath of fresh air... truly Bea-YOU-tiful ❣️xxxooo much love to all of you

[@jeanmason1282]

Thank you for that escape. As an American I am so grateful for your beautiful distractions during theses crazy times. Love your channel!

[@maggiegray1698]

The locals have reclaimed their land! Such a privilege to see all the corners and niches of the towns-thank you.

[@mariarocco1706]

Enjoyed the video, Ravello is a piece of haven on earth, it is so beautiful. Thanks for taking us along with you to visit these beautiful places.😊

[@jennyoshea1958]

Carlo Rispoli Hi Carlo 😊 Lol. Your green trainers rock, Nicki. Beautiful views and interesting facts. Love Escher. Thanks for sharing your journey. Lovely family 🎠🙂🇬🇧🦋

[@sarahgill1248]

Lovely vicarious hike while I’m lying in bed with a cup of tea and the cat!

[@rata12341000]

How much history on those walls!!! I loved every second of it! Thanks for the tour!!!

[@donnaparducci1525]

Inspiring me to read about the history of the Amalfi Coast, I am a history buff at heart. Love the ancient towns through out the hike. Thx, Nicki & friends! Well done as always.❣️

[@TheQuillPress]

Under those arches in Atrani is just the best pizzeria , La Palme. The thing I loved is that people walk through it to get to the bus stop on the road above.

[@leecarr5497]

How interesting, thank you for the tour. Much appreciated.

[@marycahill546]

Is there anything more beautiful than the views from Ravello? So refreshing.

[@jmc8076]

A great virtual tour. Thx (Grazie) for taking us along Nicki and Carlo for being supportive in sharing your life and these videos w/the world esp now. After 8s were a childhood treat and I’m all for 2nd breakfasts 😉. I’d love to learn some basic Italian words so please speak more of it. Such a beautiful language. Best to all.

[@hannahroberts6295]

I thoroughly enjoy everything you film. And Holly is such a sweetie!

[@nancychan1467]

I loved the scenery and learning about the history of the areas. You are so lucky to wonderful friends who are so knowledgeable about the area, will have to keep these guides in mind for our next visit to Italy. Too bad Carlo had to work, hopefully he was not too tired. Thank you again Nikki for a great video 👻🎃

[@daniellereid01]

Thank you for taking us with you. Your vlogs are one of the ways I'm staying sane in this crazy time. Lots of love to you and your family and hoping you stay safe and well xox

[@FilmFactry]

Beautifully done. perfect integration of music without taking away from the visuals!

[@janacabana1]

Oh Nicki, this was FABULOUS!! We’ve been to Amalfi/Ravello/Positano/Praiano but never realized there were STEPS & PATHS for people to walk on & travel from one village to the next!! How charming!! The history is just completely fascinating. Thank you immensely for sharing this😘😘😘. How long did the descent take?

[@floridagirl330]

I’m so enjoying these littles towns with all their special nooks and crannies, thanks to you ! More please!!

[@joannsalas7015]

I love when you share your walks and it's great to learn more about the history too. It's just a relaxing experiencing and always a pleasure to watch!

[@oilenglai4128]

Thank you for walking us to this centuries_old hike..,.I could feel the old-ness of the rocks and mountains and love the shot of the white dinghy and swimming man in the green sea 🎈

[@susanbrown2909]

Nice place niki..and your friend knows a great deal about the area. You must be so fit walking all thoses steps .

[@pawstravel]

It might be an old video on your channel, but since in spring 2022 we are planning to visit Amalfi coast again, I'm more than happy to find your channel and series about life in the fabulous coast of Amalfi. When we visited first time, we didn't even realize that there are hidden gems like your friend took you to and other smaller paths, rather than walking on the street where cars drive. Thanks Nicki !😊😊😊

[@wendyrobertson9359]

Beautiful scenery and autumn colours and lovely to hear some of the history of Ravello .....such a beautiful village!

[@carolkelly4533]

Perfect, when you combine the history and cultural details with the breathtaking landscape we can escape the stress of the pandemic for a short while, but it renews my hope that soon I will be able to return to Italy 🇮🇹 😊

[@janetcorey5102]

I’ve been watching you for two years and missed this one, in a word Stunning! It was so precious! I’ve visited but am unable to climb anymore. You have shared such beauty that I would have never experienced. With tearful eyes, thank you❤️

[@joanannewallace]

Another brilliant video of history lessons and beautiful scenery. It’s like being there and on holiday when watching.

[@supriyabarsode8039]

The walk was lovely off the beaten path and through a maze of small alleyways similar to Tunis.❤️

[@tootsieb11]

It is totally acceptable to eat After Eight mints any time of day... usually after Christmas dinner but far too tasty to have only once a year . Wow! a two tiered church...Nicki can you take us in there one day please? I love all the little nooks and crannies and walk ways, with occasional 'praying places' with lighted candles...Alessandro greeting his sister and maybe niece of nephew was so sweet...This was beautiful and truly off the beaten track... hope Carlos and Holly had a good day too.. thanks for sharing xx

[@NickiPositano]

I know of some other mirror churches too!

[@alessandrodibenedetto461]

Thank you Ruth! It was my nephew Daniele and when I greet him I'm all the time like that, because I just love him so much!

[@anitamcgrath906]

I wish I were 30 years younger. At 70 I don’t think I could go all the hiking you and your friends do so I am so glad you film it all for me

[@peterlaskaj2301]

That was absolutely the best Nicki, i so enjoyed every minute of your walk. Alessandro and Zia Lucy and friend are delightful and hearing about the history of the Amalfi Coast is fascinating. You are one of the joys of my life Nicki in Melbourne Australia. Ann

[@barbarawillis5187]

Enjoyed the walk and beautiful scenery and I enjoyed hearing about the history and nice to see where Gore Vidal once lived-take care🙂

[@carmenb1006]

So beautiful!! I feel like I was watching a movie 🎥!! The trees 🌳 the views the ocean 🌊 and great company 🙂 this town’s are so magical 🌟 and Thanks for this video 🤗🌻 have a great day 🌟

[@caroletownson1525]

Thank you for taking us walking around your beautiful area love it. Hi from Queensland Australia 💕

[@kristivaness3109]

Thank you so very much for the history and the views of your beautiful Eden!!!

[@sandicarpenter2658]

yes! Once again, you walked where I walked. I just find it so fascinating how those alleys and steps were built so long ago!!!

[@misshautechip7847]

✝️ love all the shrines, hymns and church bell sounds 💖❤️ so calming and relaxing

[@richardkaz2336]

As you get older (late 50's and on) steep stairs are no problem going up, but going down is entirely a different propersition. That's when walking poles and hand rails are gold although not many hand rails on mountain hikes. Gain really beautiful scenery and history right in your front and back yard. Truly lucky.

[@NickiPositano]

I always wondered about the waking poles.. basically walking sticks hiker style then..

[@richardkaz2336]

@@NickiPositano Yes, the collapsible ski pole style. they are invaluable taking a lot of stress off knees and quads. They also help in reducing the risk of rollong your ankles.

[@amandarichards7395]

I was lucky enough to stay in Atrani a few years ago. A beautiful little town. I loved it. Thankyou for visiting it... great memories

[@beachydayz]

I thought I was the only one that left the house and forgot my keys, many times. Lovely tour Nikki. Thank you for sharing

[@laurenthecartoongoddess]

I love these tours Nicki! It's almost as good as getting away for a bit.

[@jacquelinearcher1158]

Lovely video ..thank you.. Myrtle....Queen Victoria had a sprig of Myrtle in her wedding bouquet..from a tree planted at Osborn House, Isle of Wight UK 🇬🇧 ( her holiday home) ..since then every royal bride has a sprig from that tree in her bouquet. Osborn House is built in an Italian style so is this why they planted Myrtle there I wonder ?

[@NickiPositano]

I think I knew that!

[@Lea-rf5tw]

What a great walk, thats amazing a scottish botanist who bought and renovated Villa Rufolo and gardens, fabulous. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 xxx

[@milagroshart8858]

Hello Nikki.Thank you for the beautiful landscapes and for all your videos😍. Many thanks to Alessandro😃

[@alessandrodibenedetto461]

Thank you! Grazie :)

[@deniseaschmann4225]

Thank you so much for taking the time to log such beautiful adventures and share with the world. It means so much now that we can't travel and experience these treasures ourselves. Grazie!!

[@senarenparinussa6057]

Thank you for the wonderful tour and share the history of that town

[@anafelice5211]

Grazie Mille una vez màs por compartir tanta belleza y hacernos viajar junto a uds !!!!!💖 Hasta pronto!😚❤🌹

[@janemarett1885]

A beautiful time in Ravello with the autumn colours.

[@dianalewis8548]

Another gem. Lovely walk with your friends. Life goes on even in partial lockdown. Hugs to Holly, Skye and Carlo. La vita bella.

[@tishdish1824]

I just loved that tour with you & your lovely friends, Thanku Nicki once again for sharing The Gorgeous Amalfi with us. I smile from start to finish. Sending love from Australia 🇦🇺 xx 💕

[@Searchinforsomethinbetter]

Absolutely, stunning scenery I wish I was there

[@margal3120]

Fascinating! How lovely you have such a good friend in Alessandro and he knows so much history of the place - wow that “corner” area was amazing!! ♥️

[@kingoffreefire91]

I live in the Bahamas my cousin told me about this program I fell in Love with your show it is calming so beautiful thank you please keep it going I enjoy watching

[@auntytutu]

Love that you know of Gore Vidal, there are not too many American's worth their salt but he was one. Thank goodness he was a writer and has left us his wonderful legacy. Never read one of is his works that I didn't love. Thank you for that tidbit, these are some of the things I love about your work.

[@always.wondering.wandering]

Nice to have this hike and cultural tour by all of you to help us in the US to escape from all this election stuff on TV. Still waiting to see who will be our next president. Take care now, hope Italy will escape this current wave of COVID without too much serious illness and death. Have a lovely rest of the week. Ciao

[@andynixon2820]

These videos are excellent and you're very good at making them .

[@edmeza9053]

Loved seeing this beautiful walk x

[@cathrynwilliams4661]

Alessandro speaks excellent English and he’s very knowledgeable. He’s such a nice guy!!

[@osip7315]

19:02 until the escher etching, superlative ! music suits too, you have got a subtle abstract contrast in there you can see why escher is a great artist, he has captured something that i think nicki has illuminated

[@sherreepeterson3496]

Thank you Nicki for this beautiful hike from Ravello. Absolutely magical views of the mountains and valleys. I love how you told us All the information about where the hike was taking us, this is something that really makes your videos stand apart from others. I really enjoyed listening to Allessandro’s talks of the history and geography of the area. I’m very interested in learning more now. I hope Holly had a great day as well XO

[@alessandrodibenedetto461]

Thank you very much, Sherree!

[@janmarsh5643]

Thank you for such interesting things, Nikki. I have been to this area more than twenty years ago but my memories are till fresh and I recognise familiar spaces etc. Your companions are so knowledgeable which makes the walks much more interesting. Just to see all this makes me feel happy and content.

[@NickiPositano]

It really has not changed much in 20 years!

[@corabarkman7192]

Wow! You sure picked by far the toughest of the lot! We've done it 3 times and won't again. The one we use most goes off the west side of the Chiesa di San Michele Archangelo - the pretty church at the bottom of Torello. It's much easier on old knees and has fantastic views - it also ends up in exactly the same spot above Atrani! The other one, of course, is the gorgeous walk through Scala, Minuta, Pontone and down through the Valle delle Ferriere. Next time we'd like to take both Alessandro and Zia (and you) along! I've never know guides to provide such interesting and in depth information on an area! Thank you!!

[@relaxedrelaxed]

[@JZeverybody]

So enjoyable, thank you Nicki!

[@janetlombardi2314]

Really enjoyed this video everywhere you film is beautiful wish I was there thank u for sharing

[@ella1010]

[@minisahni884]

A really satisfying trip....the winter touch was giving a nice feel to the whole place.There were so many beautiful spots and cute things that it was a great feast for my eyes.....the doorway covered with red leaves🍁🍂was just a picture perfect spot.....that White House with blue door perched up on the hill was so perfect😍......and not to forget the After Eight.....an all time favorites...🤎🤎🤎

[@gresakukaj7830]

Ravello and Villa Cimbrone there was one of my favorite places when I visited Italy in 2018! Thank you for your videos during these tough times! We are all living vicariously through you! It makes me feel like I am there myself. 😊

[@lindawentink2725]

Omg! The pastries🥰 awesome vid as usual. Love Alessandro and Lucy. They are so passionate.

Just did this hike. Thanks Nicki for the video Lucia who recommended it to us this week.

[@annortolaza6401]

Very informative enjoyed the history🤗 The virtual walk with you guys was fun!!

[@suginami123]

Great views interesting history and a bit of mystery. I liked the music.

[@margaretfry3043]

The information you share is excellent. Watching your vlogs is so different than the hype filled vlogs of so many, busy inventing events to increase their subscribers.

[@NickiPositano]

Hi Margaret, I'm Carlo, thank you very much, I will tell you according to mother nature the evolution of us living beings, and above all humans we have to compare ourselves with others in all senses, and this is how we "evolved", and we still exist, otherwise we would have become extinct, that said, even if we learn we compare, and improve (but sometimes it can get worse), we don't really care what other people do, how they run their things, or how they do their business , it being understood that we obviously don't like people who behave badly. We do not want to be opportunists, even if we are making money with this, we do not want to be right about this or that, we simply are lucky enough to live in a wonderful area and we want to share it, because it also seems right to us, perhaps towards those who never are. been in this area, or cannot afford to do it, or for those who can no longer do it, to admire, dream, or simply look at such a beautiful corner in the world (like so many other places), so we have to thank you all for watch our videos and give us a lot of satisfaction!

[@lorirodriguez7455]

I own a painting that hung in Gore vidal’s Villa Rondinaia. So glad you pointed out the villa’s location, I had no idea of its location in relationship to Positano. Yikes it hangs over a cliff from so high up! Gorgeous sightseeing tour: thanks!

[@angelaurlwin1523]

Great hike today, Ravello is a fab place. Thanks to you all for the info and vlog ❤️👍

[@BabaYagaWickJohn]

Hi nicki, loved the episode as it brought back memories😊every time I stayed in Amalfi, Positano and Ravello, I would hike, run up and down the ancient, historical steps early in the morning. Thanks and keep uploading your wonderful videos🙏🏼 P.S. Italy is my favorite country to visit in Europe because of its history and to know that people have been living and walking the same streets, roads, steps for thousands of years is so surreal 'Rome is truly the eternal city'

[@normasolomon1189]

Oh my gosh I love these videos - filled so much information and history 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@jennyoshea1958]

I adore the Sheepies 😊🐑🐑🐑

Thank you Nicky for this video it feels like I’m traveling to those places 😍

[@charouteinlondon1523]

OMG I had a fabulous lunch at Hotel Caruso at the balcony with amazing view of the sea and mountains. I am so upset now that we are on 3rd lockdown here in London. These videos of yours just makes me happy and forget our current situation. Thanks

[@rickyseymour4137]

Thank you for taking us on your travels around the amalfi coast,also the point of explaining the history,i so enjoy your video's the views are just the best ever, my dream would be to do the walks you do and see all the different sights of the amalfi coast, i have loved the amalfi coast ever since i saw it is the 60's and 70's movies always wanted to see the towns from every side and angle and through your camera work i get to see the views, thank you.

[@susanhonnell1800]

So enchanting. Loved taking this hike with you!

[@gisellenorbury2369]

Really enjoyed the history with Carlos and again thank you Nicki for this beautiful video.

[@rsoubiea]

a very beautiful and interesting tour of this area. Thank you! I love chicken satay, pot stickers and sushi, Thai green mango salad is so hot but so good!

[@lindabrannan3160]

Thank you so much for this beautiful, informative vlog and taking us along with you. I've been to Ravello a few times on day trips and visited the Villas Rufulo and Cimbrone. I love to sit in the main Piazza and soak up the atmosphere but I've obviously only just scratched the surface. Very best wishes to you, your family and friends.

[@solotraveller888]

Just found this vlog. Reminds me when I did the Walks of the God, two years ago. This brought me back beautiful memories. Hope to be back soon to Positano,meanwhilei’ll enjoy your Amalfi coast uploads. 🌹

[@berthasanchez6559]
