TOUR ITINERARY

Begin at the top of Posillipo Hill from where you can enjoy one of the most spectacular views over the Gulf of Naples and the ever-impressive volcano Vesuvio. Descending now towards the port of Mergellina and following the coastal road, you will arrive in the ancient fishing quarter of Santa Lucia.

TOUR ITINERARY

Your private driver will pick you up in the morning to take you on a fascinating half day excursion to Pompeii.

Located near present-day Naples, Pompeii was an ancient Roman city at the foot of the infamous Mount Vesuvius. The volcano erupted in 79 AD, killing the inhabitants and burying the city in ash but, on the other hand, perfectly preserving their way of life. Get ready to travel back in time as your guide takes you through the archeological park, walking you along the same streets that were once frequented by Romans thousands of years ago. During your visit you will discover the public baths, forums, and villas built and used by the inhabitants of Pompeii, as well as a collection of artifacts – from household items to jewelry – recovered from the ashes. You will marvel at the incredibly well-preserved frescoes which still adorn the walls and floors of the villas, and which have allowed visitors and researchers alike to glimpse into what life was like at the time.

Even if your interests do not lie in history, this is an archaeological site that cannot fail to impress you.

At the end of your tour, meet with your driver again to return to your accommodations.

TOUR ITINERARY

Your private driver will pick you up from the hotel in the morning for your full day tour along the breathtaking Amalfi coastline. This excursion will transport you to a place where nature, culture and food exist in harmony by the sea. You will stop in three of the delightful towns nestled in the small natural bays along the coast: Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. All three offer breathtaking views and the opportunity for spectacular photos.

Your first stop will be Positano, a charming little town built on a cliff and surrounded by turquoise sea. The coast around Positano is in fact considered to be one of the most beautiful areas of the Amalfi Coast. In the 1950s, the town was rediscovered thanks to a nascent tourist industry and has since become a popular attraction.

Next, you will visit Amalfi, the most important town in the area as well as one of the most popular, attracting huge numbers of tourists every year. This picturesque seaside resort, once a thriving trading hub, boasts some wonderful examples of medieval architecture and a long history of famous visitors (such as the composer Richard Wagner).

Continue to the third and last town: Ravello. This ancient and fascinating town was once an important trading port until it was sacked and destroyed by Pisa. Ravello was revived in the 19th century, having been rediscovered by artists, intellectuals and aristocrats. Today, Ravello is a popular tourist destination that offers a rich culture and many beautiful sights.

At the end of your excursion, your driver will return you to your accommodations.

TOUR ITINERARY

Enjoy a full day excursion to the bustling and scenic Island of Capri, taking in the breathtaking views of the blue waters of the Bay of Naples. Together with your private guide, you will be transferred to the pier where you will board the ferry that crosses the Bay of Naples.

Upon arrival at the Marina Grande, Capri’s main port, you will take the Funicular to Anacapri. From here you will visit the highest point of the Island for a panoramic view with a private car and driver. You will visit Villa San Michele, located at the top of the ancient Phoenician Steps. It was built in the early 1900s atop Roman ruins by the Swedish doctor and author Axel Munthe, whose bestselling book “Story of San Michele” tells of his time on Capri. The villa is surrounded by a beautiful shady garden with a terrace that offers a splendid view of the island.

Return to Capri and experience the fashionable shops, hotels and restaurants which line its winding streets.
