Detailed Description

You will experience luxury and wonder during your 10-day Amalfi Coast tour of Italy. You can discover the alluring scenery and vibrant culture of Italy as you visit Rome, Sorrento, the island of Ischia, and the towns of the Amalfi Coast, including Ravello, Positano, and Amalfi. From the shoreline to the inland plains and from the island beaches to panoramic summits, your time on the Amalfi Coast will highlight the marvels of the Campania region, stretching from antiquity to contemporary life.

Your exploration of the best of the Amalfi Coast will begin with your arrival in Rome, where you will have one night to enjoy the fascinating blend of contemporary life that weaves through the city’s streets. Your guide will lead you on an introductory tour to visit the iconic monuments of Rome, including the Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona. You will then travel southbound for three days in Sorrento. Before reaching the coastal city, you will have a guided tour of the spectacular Caserta Palace to witness the opulence of the Baroque apartments and dramatic gardens.

Your time in Sorrento will lead you to Naples for a full-day tour of the city’s antique streets and the artifacts that are on display in the archeological museum. You will also learn the art of making the perfect pizza during a private cooking lesson that will focus on the region’s traditional ingredients and flavors. A private tour of ancient life in the region will lead you along the excavated streets of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Each infamous city provides a different perspective of 1st-century life in a Roman colony.

The following day, you will take the ferry to Ischia, where you can relax in the comforts of your luxury hotel for two nights. Here, you can enjoy the beauty of island life at your preferred pace by strolling through the different towns, lounging on the beaches, or indulging in the thermal baths for which the island is famous. A visit to Capri will unveil the renowned beauty of the island that has enchanting emperors, and you can visit ancient gardens or revel in the marvelous views of the water.

Transferring to Ravello for three nights will open a doorway to the Amalfi Coast. You can discover the grandeur of the elevated town, traverse the scenic coastal road with a private driver, and wander along the historic edges of a former maritime powerhouse. When visiting Paestum, you will reveal the extent of Greek colonists in Italy before sampling the flavors of fresh-made buffalo mozzarella at a dairy farm. Throughout your tour, private transfer will be provided to and from each destination, and you will stay in luxurious accommodations in each location.

Italy Tour Review: Wine Tour, Cooking Classes, Local Cuisine,...

Zicasso’s travel company was wonderful in planning our trip on short notice and in line with our requests and preferences. Their suggestions of what to do and where to stay were perfect. And when we accidentally got off on the wrong island, the travel company quickly got us new ferry tickets to get to the right place. It was all seamless.

Italy Honeymoon Review: Rome, Sorrento, Cooking Class, Private...

This trip was the greatest week of our lives! Everything planned was better than I could have imagined. The private drivers being coordinated behind the scenes made the trip so easy and removed all the stress of trying to navigate a new country. Every driver and our tour guide was so nice and I feel like we made friends with all of them.

My favorite part of the trip was definitely the cooking classes and that every tour was private and intimate for my wife and I. The connections Zicasso’s travel agent hooked us up with made the trip the most memorable experience. Our travel agent and the travel company took special care of all the tiny details of the trip; our hotel knew it was my birthday and had a special surprise for me! I’m beyond thankful for the perfect honeymoon they provided my wife and I.

Italy Vacation Review: Florence, Rome, Truffle Hunt, Cooking...

Wow, where to begin. This trip was an absolute dream.

When I first spoke to Zicasso’s travel consultant, I told her my main travel concern: traveling with nine- and 15-year-old boys as a single mom in Italy. I was excited to take the trip with them, but I really needed something that was meticulously planned to take away the nerves of having to navigate alone with two kids. She listened and executed the most beautiful trip.

She planned activities that captured the attention and imagination of a fourth grader and a teenager. And the experiences were unique. Probably the highlight of the trip was a truffle hunt with the hunter and his dog in the countryside outside of Florence. My oldest wants to move to Florence and start hunting! We had a personalized cooking class, a private Vespa tour of Rome, and a delicious and informative art and food tour, among other amazing experiences. As we were sending photos back home, I got so many requests for our itinerary because it was so special and unique. Both boys were hard-pressed to choose which part they liked best.

The hotels she selected were beautiful, comfortable, and right in the heart of the cities and attractions we wanted to see. When we encountered a small hiccup (by our hotel, not our travel agent), I contacted her and she responded right away, getting us a free room upgrade and free dinner! We felt very taken care of.

Aside from the amazing activities and locations we saw, the trip was fantastic because everything was so seamless. We always had a private driver arranged, pre-booked train tickets, and even someone to make sure we made it on time for our flight home. I never had to worry about a thing. It was also telling that every tour guide we interacted with had only glowing things to say about our travel agent and her keen attention to detail and organization.

If you're planning on visiting Italy, this travel company is the travel agency you need to select. It takes any of the stress and guesswork out of the travel process, and all you have to do is show up and enjoy.

Thank you so much! You helped us make some amazing memories!

Italy 25th Anniversary Travel Review: Positano, Sorrento,...

This was possibly the best vacation we have ever taken. A fitting trip to mark our 25th anniversary, we will remember our days in Positano and Sorrento forever. Everything was perfect and the service and support were extraordinary.

Zicasso's travel specialist and the other people were always super-helpful and friendly. The hotels they chose for us in particular were exactly what we wanted. I can’t think of a single issue. Transport, transfers, etc., were perfect. The only bad part was that we had to return to normal life afterwards! We highly recommend our travel company to anyone! Grazie mille!
