This morning, you will take a short drive to the world’s smallest country, Vatican City! With our expert local guide you’ll tour the Vatican Museums, a massive collection of ancient Greek sculptures, medieval tapestries and Renaissance paintings. Your visit culminates in the Sistine Chapel, the room where the Pope is elected.  ***please remember to bring your ID (not a photocopy) to enter the Vatican Museums.

Next, you will visit St. Peter’s Basilica, by far the largest church in Christendom. You will see Michaelangelo’s Pietà, sculpted when he was just 24 years old, as well as Bernini’s seven-story bronze canopy located above the main altar.

In the evening, you’ll be our guest at a fine Roman restaurant with flowing wines and great friends!

This morning, after breakfast, you will board the bus for a relaxing, panoramic driving tour of Imperial Rome including the Roman Forum, Circus Maximus, an arena for horse races during the Roman Empire, and the Synagogue.

After, you will have an upfront tour of the Colosseum, reliving the brutal entertainment of the gladiators and the lions, judged by the Emperor himself. *** please remember to bring your ID (not a photocopy) to enter the Colosseum.

In the evening, you have the chance to explore the wonderful restaurants in Rome on your own. Be sure to try some “Fiori di Zucca,” a specialty in Rome: Zucchini flowers, deep-fried and filled with mozzarella and sometimes, anchovies.

In the morning, you will take a drive to Amalfi, one of the most famous coastlines on earth.

Along the way, you will stop in Pompeii! Imagine a city perfectly preserved as it was on that fateful day 2,000-years-ago, when ash and lava literally stopped it in its tracks. You’ll see the tragic fossils of people attempting to escape, along with children and dogs.

Next, you will settle into your “home” in Amalfi at the historic Hotel Luna Convento, a twelfth-century convent converted into a charming first-class hotel overlooking the sea.

In the evening, you will enjoy dinner at your hotel with great local wines.

What better way to visit the splendid towns of the Amalfi Coast than by sea!

Today, you will sail from Amalfi to Positano (in case of bad weather, we’ll travel by bus). There will be time to explore this picture-perfect village set on a cliff dropping into the blue Mediterranean Sea.

Then you will take a quick drive to Sorrento to enjoy a lunch featuring the fresh specialties of the Campania region.

The evening is yours to enjoy as you please!

After a relaxing morning, you will take a short ride up the mountain to charming Ravello. The town’s beauty is so inspiring that for centuries it has attracted world-famous composers, writers, and artists. You will visit the stunning Villa Rufolo; built by a very wealthy merchant family in the 13th century, it was one of the largest and most expensive villas on the Amalfi Coast. When the famous German composer, Richard Wagner, visited the villa, he was so inspired that he stayed there long enough to write the second act of “Parsifal”, an opera that he had been working on for over twenty years.

Next, you will return to Amalfi for a wine tasting with the best Amalfi Coast wines and the world famous Limoncello liqueur. It goes down easy… but it’s quite strong! Salute!

The evening is yours to enjoy as you please!

This morning you will sail to one of the world’s most enchanting islands, Capri.  Weather permitting, you will visit the Blue Grotto, famed for its translucent aqua blue light. You will also tour the island, followed by a well-deserved lunch with wine.  Later in the afternoon, you will sail back to Amalfi.

In the evening, you will enjoy your final night at a relaxing dinner in the hotel. Don’t forget to exchange contact information so you can plan another trip together in the future!
