Day01
Arrival in Naples and transfer to Sorrento
Arrive at Naples Central Station or Naples International Airport and meet your private driver for a scenic transfer to Sorrento. Enjoy first views of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius as you start your tailor-made Italy travel.
Check in to your selected hotel or B&B and relax. Explore Sorrento's historic center, artisan shops, and coastal viewpoints. We can reserve a table for a typical 3-course dinner to complete your first day.
Day02
Half-day tour to Pompeii from Sorrento
Start your second day with a comfortable hotel pickup or a designated meeting point and travel to Pompeii on a half-day shared tour. Your guide leads you through the Forum, the thermal baths, the House of the Vettii, and the Lupanar, tracing the rhythm of daily life preserved in the ash, one of the most vivid archaeological chapters found anywhere on a Southern Italy trip.
Hear Greek and Roman history, stroll past markets, workshops, bathhouses, and the arena, then enjoy free time to explore the Archaeological Park before returning to Sorrento.
Day03
Exclusive Capri boat tour
Meet at Marina della Lobra for a tailor-made boat tour along the Sorrento coast with views of Mount Vesuvius, Ischia, Procida, and the hills of Massa Lubrense. On Capri, you'll have a chance to visit the Blue Grotto and sail to the Green Grotto, passing Punta Carena Lighthouse and Anacapri.
Swim at Marina Piccola, photograph the Faraglioni, Natural Arch, Villa Malaparte, Grotta Bianca, and Coral, and enjoy local Limoncello and free time in Capri.
Tips from Annalisa

Travel Expert
Ask your skipper to swing by the back of the Faraglioni after your swim at Marina Piccola: most boats don’t, and the view of Villa Malaparte from the sea is one of Capri’s hidden gems.
Day04
Amalfi Coast shared tour: Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello
Depart Sorrento on a comfortable minivan and relax along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast, passing viewpoints and pull-offs marked on local maps as part of an Amalfi Coast tour route.
Enjoy an hour or two in Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello to wander cliffside lanes, shop artisan boutiques, sample coastal cuisine, and visit Ravello’s famed gardens before returning to Sorrento.
Day05
Departure from Sorrento
After breakfast, savor a final morning in Sorrento. Check out by 10:00 AM and meet your private driver for a comfortable transfer to Naples Central Station or Naples International Airport, ensuring a smooth, stress-free end to your Southern Italy itinerary.
