Embark on an amazing adventure taking you on a tour of Rome, a Colosseum visit, the Amalfi coast, Sorrento, Pompeii, and more!
Enjoy a panoramic Rome city tour with your local guide. See the highlights of the city, including the Roman Forum, the Arch of Constantine, Circus Maximus, Piazza Venezia, and the Pantheon. Walk over cobblestone streets to see the Trevi Fountain and more. Walk in the footsteps of ancient gladiators during an in-depth visit to the Colosseum.
Then, take a day for shopping or to visit places like the Vatican Museums, offering a massive collection of ancient Greek sculptures, medieval tapestries, and Renaissance paintings, or the Sistine Chapel and Michelangelo's mural of The Last Judgement.
Your next stop is the Amalfi Coast, an iconic coastline of rocky beaches and towering cliffs, followed by a Sorrento walking tour. Sorrento is a coastal town facing the Bay of Naples. Take in the breathtaking scenery, sip on some Limoncello, or visit Piazza Tasso, a cafe-lined square filled with artisan shops selling local wares.
Your trip also includes a visit to Pompeii, one of Italy’s most unique and famous archaeological sites. Explore an ancient community captured in time - the excavated ruins of the Roman city of Pompeii, buried in volcanic ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD.
