Not Ref Italian Escapes Dolce Vita - 3 Days / 2 Nights

Day 1:

If you dream of experiencing some of Italy’s most breathtaking coastal towns, join us on this unforgettable journey to Sorrento Coast. Pack your bags and wear comfortable shoes — at 6:30 approx. we’ll pick you up directly from your hotel and take you to the bus departure point. Departing from Rome at 7:30 AM, enjoy a comfortable drive through the Italian countryside with a short stop along the way before continuing south towards the ancient city of Pompeii, set at the foot of Mount Vesuvius. Upon arrival, explore this remarkable UNESCO World Heritage Site with an expert licensed guide on a comprehensive archaeological tour. Enjoy an in-depth 2.5-hour exploration of the site, designed to let you fully immerse yourself in the history and daily life of ancient Rome. Walk along the original streets, discover remarkably preserved houses, bakeries and temples, and admire frescoes and mosaics that have survived for centuries. Learn how the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD buried the city under ash, preserving it for over a millennium and offering us today an unparalleled glimpse into the past. After the visit, transfer to Sorrento, where you can continue your journey surrounded by stunning coastal views and Mediterranean charm. In the evening, savor a delicious dinner at the hotel (smart-casual attire recommended), followed by an overnight stay in Sorrento.

Day 2:

After breakfast, you’ll be embarked to Capri Island. Depending on weather conditions, you’ll take a boat ride to the popular and dreamy “Grotta Azzurra” (Blue Grotto), where sunlight passes into an underwater cavity and shines through the seawater, creating a magical blue reflection. After visiting the Blue Grotto, continue exploring the island at your own pace. Wander through Capri’s charming streets, browse its elegant boutiques, admire the picturesque scenery, or simply relax in one of its inviting cafés. There will also be time for lunch (lunch not included). Return to Marina Grande back to the mainland to return to Sorrento for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 3:

After breakfast, you'll have some free time to soak in Sorrento's charm one last time. Around 1:30 PM (departure time to be reconfirmed by Carrani Tours staff), transfer to Pompeii for the return journey to Rome by bus. You will return to Rome in the late afternoon, around 6:00 PM, with plenty of time to further enjoy the beauty of the Eternal City.
