Im Überblick

Indulge in Italy’s finest food and views during this 2-week guided tour. When in Rome, you will toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain during a walking tour with a Local Expert. In Sorrento, settle into a luxurious resort and take in the views of Mount Vesuvius, which buried Pompeii in a pyroclastic cloud of ash and lava stones in 79 A.D. Dine on traditional Apulian cuisine inside a historic trulli house – iconic to the region with their conical stone roofs. Enjoy seasonal dishes such as orecchiette, a traditional pasta of Puglia, honouring age-old recipes, with a deep connection to their land. In Palermo, a historian will take you through the old city, showing you its cathedral and the Palatine Chapel in the Palace of the Normans, where glittering 12th century mosaics will surely take your breath away.
