From Rome, travel to Naples and see the treasures of the ancient city. Stop at the legendary site of Pompeii which was completely destroyed 2,000 years ago in the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Discover Positano, one of Italy's crown jewels, with stunning scenery and colourful cliffside villas. Set sail for the idyllic Italian island of Capri on a full-day tour and relax at the charming town of Sorrento on your Amalfi Coast escape with plenty of free time to explore on your own
This tour is the BEST way to see all the infamous spots in Italy, plus local hidden gems, at a reasonable cost and if you are short on time (we had a school break time limitation). It covered everything! We budgeted for the add-ons, especially those with meals, but you could choose to have more free time if you wanted. The food was extraordinary, the bus was roomy and immaculately clean, our driver Antonello was superb, and our Travel Director Anneleis was amazing! She was so talented at integrating the tour highlights, guests, keeping it fun even in the rainy weather, knowledgeable, and able to troubleshoot anything to ensure we had the best experience of a lifetime!! I would love to go back and explore Southern Italy next. The hotels were elegant (only one was just "OK" only because it was in need of some renovations) and the service with our luggage, tipping, etc. was seamless. I highly recommend the Italian Intermezzo tour and Insight Vacations. Favoloso!
It was a fast paced trip. It is a bit difficult staying only one night in a few places, just the logistics of packing up several nights and having everything ready for the next day is challenging.
But, that being said I thoroughly enjoyed seeing so many things through out Italy.
That inconvenience was minor in comparison to the amount of ground we covered.
Begin by immersing yourself in the ancient ruins of Pompeii, a once-thriving ancient city frozen in time by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Afterward, retreat to the idyllic town of Sorrento, where your charming hotel promises a comfortable respite. Venture out to the renowned island of Capri, nestled in the Bay of Naples, and be entranced by its natural beauty and cultural allure. Marvel at the picturesque hillside town of Positano, etched into the rugged coastline, before making your way back to the eternal city of Rome, enriched by the memories of this coastal sojourn
Christina organized a fantastic first class itinerary for a 28 day tour of Italy by my wife and me. She was very personable and generous with her time and very knowledgeable of the areas we visited. The trip included incredible private tours with top notch guides and smooth transfers all the way. Any minor glitches were handled promptly and professionally. It was a wonderful experience and we look forward to working with her again in the future.
My husband and I brought our entire family on this vacation to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. Great trip, the best way to see much of Italy in a short time - 8 days. The country, food and people are wonderful in Italy. Our tour guide was great! I highly recommend.
