Exclusive Amalfi Coast & Pompeii

Visit Sorrento, Positano and Pompeii: three of the most fabled destinations on the Bay of Naples. Enjoy lunch in a hotel in Sorrento overlooking the sea and indulge in free time for shopping, photography or just soaking up the sublime atmosphere. Start your day with a drive through the coast of Amalfi en route to Positano. Here, whitewashed and pastel houses tumble down the cliffs to a beach dotted with brightly colored fishing boats. Long a draw for sophisticated world travelers, Positano boasts elegant designer boutiques, luxury shops and seaside cafes. You’ll then go to Sorrento where lunch awaits. Take advantage of free time to explore the flower-filled main street of Sorrento and the Corso Italia, lined with boutiques and sidewalk cafes. Your day culminates with a visit to Pompeii in the afternoon. Entering by the Sea Gate, you’ll tour the city’s baths, villas, theaters and wrestling grounds. The highlights include stunning frescoes and mosaic-inlaid floors. En route you’ll visit a cameo factory nearby to see how the famous jewelry is made and then have some time to browse the store. Note: The roads of Sorrento and the Amalfi coast are narrow and winding. Persons who suffer from motion sickness should take this into account. This tour is conducted in small groups. During summer months expect extreme heat, crowded venues and long lines. From the months of November through March, due to the earlier closure of Pompeii excavations, this tour will be run in the reverse order. We recommend that you dress in layers and bring bottled water.
