Delight in a special 15-day exploration of Italy’s southern region, from striking Sicily and the breathtaking Amalfi Coast to Apulia in the “boot heel.”
Throughout enjoy Italian hospitality, outstanding cuisine, and boutique-style hotels. Your small group first experiences Sicily’s intriguing cultural heritage with four nights in Taormina. Encounter archaeological wonders in Agrigento’s remarkable “Valley of the Temples.” After a visit to Mt. Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, enjoy a small group highlight: lunch and Sicilian wines at a family-run farm. Travel to the Italian mainland and tour Matera’s ancient cave dwellings and Alberobello’s white-washed houses, both UNESCO sites. Discover Lecce, the “Florence of the South.” With four final nights in Sorrento, highlights include evocative Pompeii, a Neapolitan cooking lesson, and a hydrofoil cruise to the storied Isle of Capri. After a glorious Amalfi Coast drive, celebrate your Italian sojourn at a farewell dinner. Explore Rome independently with an optional 4-day/3-night post-tour extension.
