Inspiration for your own tailor-made trip
Italy - Amalfi coast - Naples - Sorrento - Praiano - Amalfi
100% customisable for you
Your Italian adventure starts today. Depart from the UK and arrive in Naples around two-and-a-half hours later, where you’ll be collected from the airport and transferred to your hotel. Since you have three nights in the city, you can spend the rest of today relaxing and unwinding after your flight.
Enjoy your first taste of authentic Neapolitan cuisine this evening, either at your hotel or at a restaurant recommended by our local Concierge. If you’re in the mood for comfort food, pizza is your best bet – this doughy dish was born here, so you won’t find fresher fare anywhere else.
It’s time to dig into Naples’ history and culture. On a private Italian Vespa tour, discover a city which boasts grandeur and grit in equal measure.
An expert guide will lead you through the historic streets, past Piazza del Municipio, Galleria Umberto I, Piazza Trento e Trieste, Chiesa di San Francesco di Paola and Borgo Marinari. If the weather isn’t at its best, your Vespa will be replaced with a Fiat 500 – another Italian classic.
If you’ve already had your fill of pizza (impossible, we know), we can arrange dinner in the quaint fishing village of Marechiaro, known for its fresh seafood.
On your final day in Naples, explore more of the city at your own pace. Why not hop on the metro in search of culture? We recommend the Museo Cappella Sansevero, which showcases the city’s artistic heritage in its exhibits and artworks.
Come evening, join locals on their passeggiata (evening stroll) by the water, before chowing down on some more Neapolitan food and toasting to la dolce vita (the sweet life).
This morning, take a private transfer from your hotel to the small town of Sorrento on the Sorrentine Peninsula. The journey should take around one hour and 15 minutes.
Facing the Bay of Naples, this region invites you to relax on its picturesque beaches and marvel at the magnificent views across the water. Perched atop towering cliffs, the town is set among lush greenery, including citrus and olive trees, and retains its Roman origins within the winding alleyways of its historic centre. The local museum also displays fascinating relics from previous occupations, including the Greeks and the Etruscans.
Rise bright and early this morning for a cruise along one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world – the Amalfi Coast. Hop aboard your private gozzo (a typical Capri boat) in Sorrento and sail along the iconic coastline, discovering the bays of Ieranto and Nerano, as well as the Li Galli islands, before anchoring in Positano.
The view of Positano from the water is a must-see, with its pastel houses clinging to cliffs that plunge into the sea. The town itself features steep alleyways lined with boutiques and cafés, alongside the ever-present scent of lemon and olive swirling in the breeze. Take a break from the water and enjoy lunch at a restaurant overlooking the twinkling Tyrrhenian Sea.
Upon your return to Sorrento, relax this evening with a glass of wine and some exceptional Italian cuisine for dinner.
This morning, a private transfer will take you the 50 minutes from Sorrento to Praiano. Another quintessential Amalfi Coast town, Praiano features white houses clinging to a cliff face, coves lapped at by turquoise waters and flowers galore.
Once you’ve settled into your hotel room, spend some time walking along the trails overlooking the sea and enjoying the scent of myrtle and broom.
This evening, experience the cosy atmosphere of Praiano’s small fishing port.
Your final two days will be spent exploring Amalfi’s crowning jewel – Ravello. The town is known for its verdant cliffside gardens, as well as a number of churches and ancient palaces. You also won’t want to miss the Belvedere of Villa Cimbrone, with its astonishing panoramic balcony that opens onto the coast.
Why not spend your final day relaxing on Praiano’s pretty beaches? After sunning yourself on the sand, savour as much authentic Italian food as you can before your departure tomorrow.
Sadly, your Italian adventure winds down today. A private transfer will take you back to Naples, where you’ll catch your three-hour flight back to the UK. We hope you brought back enough foodie souvenirs to keep the holiday blues at bay...
