Detailed Description

Enjoy the tranquil ambiance and charisma of rugged cliffs, charming villages, and elegant, azure waters during your 7-day, seniors tour of the Amalfi Coast. Traverse the famous road that hugs the coastal bluffs on one of the most spectacular scenic drives in the world. The wonderful cities along the Bay of Naples will introduce you to the authentic heritage of Italy and will provide insight into the preserved culture of Campania, taking you from Naples to Capri, and from Sorrento to Amalfi with guided tours, culinary instruction, and inspiring discoveries.

Your immersive exploration will begin with your arrival at Naples International Airport. With one night in Naples, you can experience the thrilling pulse of Campania’s capital city that emanates from the chaotic streets and an alluring, dynamic past. Traverse the historic center at your leisure before participating in a pizza-making class that offers the secrets to crafting the perfect Neapolitan pizza whether in a private kitchen in Italy or back at home. Before transferring to Sorrento for five nights, you will stop in Pompeii with a private guide for a sensational tour of the ancient city. Wander the excavated streets and unearthed homes for intimate images of life in the Roman colony before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.

Arrive in Sorrento with five nights of basking in the beauty of the city known as the Gateway to the Amalfi Coast. The charm of the bayside scenery will offer plenty of activities and countless wonders that will connect you to the genuine flavors of the region and authentic heritage along the peninsula. Visit a local farm with a guided tour of the lemon and olive orchards, and learn the art of crafting traditional Limoncello in addition to sampling the savory flavors of locally celebrated dishes that have been passed down through generations.

Traverse the symbolic beauty of the Amalfi Coast by visiting the eponymous city of Amalfi. Navigate the winding lanes, visit the golden strand of beach, and witness the fascinating cathedral before trekking a portion of the Path of Gods trail, where your transfer can meet you in Nocelle for an easier scenic hike, or in Positano for a longer, more challenging excursion. Spend time in Capri discovering the legendary beauty that has cast spells over Roman emperors and Hollywood starlets. With the day at your leisure to discover the towns, you can enjoy the picturesque views and visit the museums that possess signs of artistic history.

A half-day, guided tour of Paestum will unveil the deep roots of Greek history in the region that date back to the sixth century BC. Explore the plains of Campania with the option of visiting a farm to learn the process of making buffalo mozzarella. Before your tour of the Amalfi Coast finishes, you may extend your time in Italy and discover the treasures of the Emilia Romagna region or the epic history of Sicily. Make sure your perfect Italian vacation is an unforgettable one by seeing additional Italy travel ideas.
