Day 1 : Arrival Sorrento – Capri – Sorrento

Location: Sorrento

Accommodation Name: Hotel Miramare or similar 4*

Upon your arrival in Sorrento reach the hotel on your own and check in (transfer from Naples airport or train station available as an optional extra). In the afternoon enjoy a stunning and exclusive tour in Capri (the tour starts at 15.00 hrs). Playground for everyone from Hollywood stars to the ancient Greeks, Capri is a dazzling gem in the Neapolitan Riviera. You’ll speed across by hydrofoil in the mid-afternoon to pass the evening surrounded by beauty and picture-perfect views doing exactly as you wish. You’ll start with a tour of the island by boat so you can spot the grottoes that have been drawing in visitors for decades. Then, as dusk descends, you’ll be dropped off in Capri town for the evening. Explore the harbor under your own steam, dipping in and out of designer shops as you go. Once you have your bearings, you’ll be able to find somewhere to eat in one of the many upmarket restaurants, or simply opt for a caprese salad – invented here in the 50s. The town is famed for its boutiques, bars, and luxury hotels, and you’ll experience it all under the twinkle of the night sky. You’ll then arrive back in Sorrento at night.

Rome and Amalfi Dream (On Request)

Amalfi ride was an amazing experience! Scary and exciting at the same time. Accomodation was great, and we really liked how the itinerary was designed, because there is a ton of interesting content and still enough time for relaxation.

The Amalfi Coast is stunning and the people of Italy were very welcoming and helpful. First, a shout out to Dario, my Pompeii guide - excellent! 2nd day was to be the Capri tour (amazing!) the lemon grove tour (also amazing, personal and very enjoyable), My guide for the walking tour in Napoli was wonderful.

Overall good. Tour guides we all exceptional. The transportation was a small issue, one ride cane over 30 minutes early (luckily we were ready). The other ride scheduled to take us back to the airport arrived 45 minutes late. Hotel in Rome a bit older but the staff and location very nice. A great restaurant across the street.

Rome & Splendid tour

I loved everything about this tour. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer! Tui Italia took care in answering all our questions, and handling our delayed flight, as well as our early departure request. Each of the local guides along the way did a good job...especially Marco who led our excursion to Capri. The accomodations were clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend this trip.
