About This Trip

Southern Italy has a magic all of its own, where ancient history, sparkling Mediterranean waters and sun-drenched streets create a way of life that feels wonderfully intoxicating. You’ll wander through grand piazzas and centuries-old streets, breathe in the scent of citrus and freshly prepared Italian food, and watch the world unfold at an unhurried pace. From Rome’s timeless beauty to the dramatic coastlines around Sorrento and the sun-soaked energy of Sicily, every day brings a new sense of discovery, with moments that invite you to slow down, soak it all in and fall a little more in love with Italy.

 

Along the way, you’ll encounter some of Italy’s most remarkable treasures. Step inside the mighty Colosseum and walk among the ruins of the Roman Forum in Rome with your expert guide, then journey to Pompeii, where an ancient city frozen beneath volcanic ash brings Roman life vividly back to the present. You’ll discover the beauty of Capri and Anacapri, including the magical Blue Grotto, before boarding an overnight ferry bound for Sicily. In Palermo, you’ll explore grand palaces, glittering Byzantine mosaics, magnificent churches and bustling food markets, with the freedom to discover the city’s many layers at your own pace.

 

And then there are the flavours. From Roman trattorias and Sorrento’s famous coastal cuisine to cannoli, cassata and sizzling street food in Palermo, gastronomy is woven into every stage of your adventure. Comfortable 4-star accommodation, daily breakfasts, private transfers and carefully selected rail journeys make the experience wonderfully easy, while the overnight ferry adds an evocative sense of adventure as you cross the Tyrrhenian Sea beneath the stars. This is Italy beyond the postcard, a journey where every train ride, ancient ruin, island breeze and Sicilian feast becomes part of the story.

highlights

Step back into the ancient world as you uncover the extraordinary history of Rome and Pompeii. In Rome, you’ll stand beneath the mighty walls of the Colosseum and walk among the ruins of the Roman Forum, where your guide brings the stories of emperors, gladiators and ancient life vividly to life. Every street you walk down has something incredible to look at, from a church in a hidden corner to the ancient manhole covers. In Pompeii, you’ll get to explore even more what it was like back in the day, as you wander through an entire Roman city preserved beneath volcanic ash for almost 1,700 years. There are very few experiences in the world where you will feel entirely connected to the ancient world, but Pompeii delivers this with every step you take. 

 

From all the incredible manmade beauty on this trip, there are also plenty of jaw-dropping natural wonders. Many that will entice and tempt you to never leave. The sparkling Mediterranean waters surrounding Capri are so intensely turquoise, it almost beggars belief. Here you will also experience the magical blue light of the famous Blue Grotto, where the stunning shades of blue rewrite your internal colour palette. Then you cross the Tyrrhenian Sea overnight towards Palermo. Here, colourful markets, grand architecture, Mediterranean gardens and the warm, lively spirit of Sicilian life create a spectacular finale, where every street seems to offer another beautiful scene to discover.
