Southern Italy - A hard act to follow! Southern Italy is incomparable for its scenery, cuisine and culture! The Neapolitan Rivera is a jewel in Italy's crown. Positano & Amalfi has to be mentioned in the same fold as Sorrento & Capri. Further south we have the unspoilt and undiscovered region of the Basilicata. A region very close to my heart as both my parents were born and bred here in a small mountain top village called San Mauro Forte which forms one of the provinces of Matera famous for its Sassi! The people are arguably in my opinion the warmest people in Italy who will go out of their way for you to make you feel comfortable. Southern Italians may be laid back but one thing is for sure your happiness is paramount to them and they do whatever it takes to make you feel welcome. Finally the food....ahh I could go on and on about how perfect the cuisine is in this part of the world! Simply fantastic!
