Itinerary and highlights

One of the most visited places in Italy is the archaeological site of Pompeii, the prosperous ancient Roman town that froze in time buried in volcanic mud when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD.
Wander to distant pasts as you meander along distressed cobblestone streets through incredibly well-preserved ruins of villas with vivid frescoes that belonged to the affluent citizens, apartment buildings, eateries, workshops, markets and more.
Entry ticket price for Pompeii is currently 15 Euros per person to be purchased on-site upon arrival.

A stop at the enchanting coastal town of Sorrento for lunch at a local restaurant is always a treat.
Sorrento is famous for its seaside charm, brightly colored buildings, wood craftsmanship, and the legendary tasty Limoncello liqueur produced from local Sorrento lemons.

.

The drive itself along the famous windy road along the steep coast of Amalfi to the stunning beachside town of Positano is something movies are made of.
Positano itself delights you with its pastel-colored buildings stacked upward the side of the hill offers a splendid walk along the beach, and a stroll through its charming narrow lanes lined with cafes, boutiques, galleries, and artisan shops.
