I was not sure about the tour but I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. My fellow travelers were really great and easy to get on with. My tour leader was Luke Watson and I cannot fault him at all for the tour as he was quite knowledgeable with his narrations about the upcoming destinations. Also, I have back issues and he was great with making sure that I was comfortable with the walking and would encourage me to take it further. Paulo, our bus driver was the best with his driving skill and his kindness.
Embark on a journey south, where breathtaking scenery unfolds before your eyes. Immerse yourself in the ancient ruins of Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage Site frozen in time by the sudden eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. From there, venture to Sorrento, where the crisp coastal breeze dances along the enchanting Bay of Naples. Your next stop: the opulent Italian jewel, Capri, boasting natural wonders like the mesmerizing Blue Grotto.
