Your holiday will begin in Italy’s capital city, Rome, a bustling metropolis which was once the heart of the Roman Empire in Europe.
Your hotel will be located within easy distance of all the main attractions and a guided tour of the Colosseum and Roman Forum is included in your package.
You’ll have four days to explore this ancient city which is plenty of time to visit the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain and sample some of the delicious local cuisines.
We can arrange additional tours and excursions on request, including a VIP trip to the Vatican City, which includes access to private museums, as well as the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter’s Basilica.
We also offer excursions to Hadrian’s Villa, Lake Bracciano, or any other attraction you would like to include in your trip.
Next you’ll stop for three nights in Sorrento, where you can slow down and relax in beautiful surroundings, overlooking the bay of Naples.
Sorrento is ideally located for a number of day-trips and excursions, including the lost city of Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of nearby Mount Vesuvius.
You won’t want to leave Italy without tasting an authentic hand-made Italian pizza in Naples, or enjoying a chilled out drive along the stunning scenery of the Amalfi Coast.
The main advantage of booking one of our twin centre Italian holidays is that we arrange everything for you, including all accommodation and transfers between destinations, so you can enjoy a stress-free trip, taking in several beautiful destinations in the one holiday.
You’ll have plenty of time in each city to see all of the main attractions and landmarks, and we can also arrange additional tours and activities to create a bespoke holiday for you, whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, a family, or a group.
With this package you’ll discover two very different Italian cities, each with their own culture, heritage, food and people.
