Overview
Italy, commanding a long Mediterranean coastline, has left a powerful mark on Western culture and cuisine.
Its capital, Rome, is home to the Vatican as well as landmark art and ancient ruins. Other major cities include
Florence, with Renaissance treasures such as Michelangelo’s "David" and its leather and paper artisans; Venice,
the sinking city of canals; and Milan, Italy’s fashion capital. Since classical times, ancient Phoenicians and
Greeks, Etruscans, and Celts have inhabited the south, centre and north of the Italian Peninsula respectively,
with various Italic peoples dispersed throughout Italy alongside other ancient Italian tribes and Greek, Carthaginian,
and Phoenician colonies. The Italic tribe known as the Latins formed the Roman Kingdom, which eventually spread
throughout Italy, assimilating and conquering other nearby civilizations and forming the Roman Republic. Rome
ultimately emerged as the dominant power, conquering much of the ancient world and becoming the leading cultural,
political, and religious centre of Western civilisation. The legacy of the Roman Empire is widespread and can be
observed in the global distribution of civilian law, republican governments, Christianity and the Latin script.
Italy is located in Southern Europe, between latitudes 35° and 47° N, and longitudes 6° and 19° E. To the north,
Italy borders France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia, and is roughly delimited by the Alpine watershed, enclosing
the Po Valley and the Venetian Plain. To the south, it consists of the entirety of the Italian Peninsula and the two
Mediterranean islands of Sicily and Sardinia, in addition to many smaller islands. The sovereign states of San Marino
and the Vatican City are enclaves within Italy, while Campione d'Italia is an Italian exclave in Switzerland.

St. Peter’s Basilica, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Piazza Navona, and Moses’ Fountain. Explore the rest of the city at your own

Day 3: Rome, Naples, Pompeii, Amalfi.
After breakfast at your hotel, a coach bus will depart at 6:45am, taking the HIGHWAY “OF THE SUN” through the regions of Lazio and
Campania, where you will see a picturesque view of the Abbey of Montecassino. Upon arriving in Naples, you will go on a short panoramic
city tour, seeing sites such as the Mergellina neighbourhood, Castel dell’Ovo, Plebiscito Square, the Royal Palace, Maschio Angioino,
and the port. Have lunch in a restaurant en route to Pompeii and then visit the excavations of the famous Roman city, destroyed by the
eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Leaving Pompeii, you will continue on to Amalfi for dinner and an overnight in your new hotel.

You will have plenty of time after your hotel breakfast to explore the beauty of Capri, sometimes called the “Garden of Eden,” at your own pace.
Discover the many shops and restaurants of this wonderful, sunny island or take a swim in the Gulf of Naples. If you’d rather take a day trip, you
may book a separate excursion to nearby Anacapri, situated on the slopes of Monte Solario; the port city of Marina Grande; I Faraglioni, three
impressive rock structures that have survived many kinds of erosion but yet still protrude grandly out of the sea; or the famous Villa Jovis, a
residence built for the emperor Tiberius in the First Century BC. Return to your hotel for one last evening in Capri.
