DAY 9: Rome to Orvieto A full day
trip to Italy’s bustling capital city, where ancient
and modern live side by side. Marvel at the Colosseum, the
remains of the Forum or St Peter’s Square. Pause on
the Spanish Steps and watch the stylish Romans going about
their daily business, and don’t forget to throw a coin
into the Trevi fountain for good luck! Then to Orvieto for
two nights at the Hotel Oasi dei Discepoli, idyllically set
in peaceful gardens, with views to the town (3*). (B,D)
DAY 3: Weggis to Montecatini A scenic drive as we cross
into Italy to Montecatini, Italy’s leading spa resort,
for the next two nights at the Hotel Arnolfo, located close
to the resort centre (3*). (B,D)
DAY 10: Orvieto Enjoy the sights of the
old town of Orvieto, perched atop a volcanic rock. The funicular
(close to our hotel), takes you up to the town centre, from
where you can walk through the cobbled streets to the Cathedral.
Our optional excursion visits Umbria's jewel, Assisi. (B,D)
DAY 4: Montecatini Relax and enjoy a day at
leisure in Montecatini, which boasts nine spas, and broad
leafy avenues. There is a funicular which goes up to the old
town, from where you can enjoy some spectacular views. Alternatively,
our optional excursion is to Lucca and Pisa, two of Tuscany’s
main attractions, with a wealth of interesting sights. (B,D)
DAY 11: Orvieto to Tabiano Northwards to Parma, in
the heartland of northern Italy, with time for sightseeing.
We then head on to Tabiano, a peaceful spa town set in idyllic
Tuscan countryside for our overnight stop, Hotel Ducala (4*)
(B,D)
DAY 5: Montecatini to Sorrento Enjoy the
changing Tuscan landscape as we travel south to the Mediterranean
resort of Sorrento for a three night stay at our centrally
located hotel. A favourite holiday destination, the Old Town
has a maze of little narrow streets, lined with shops selling
traditional goods such as beautifully handcrafted wooden pictures
and the delicious lemon liqueur, limoncello. En route we stop
at Pompeii, the town frozen in time when Vesuvius erupted
in AD79. Many of the historical sights have since been uncovered,
and the city is now the most complete record of everyday life
in the Roman Empire. There is also the option of exploring
the archaeological site (entrance fee payable locally). We
stay at the Hotel Zi Teresa or similar (3*).
(B,D)
DAY 12: Tabiano to Basle
North again, we head back towards Switzerland,
and on to Mulhouse and the Hotel Bristol (3*).
(B,D)
DAY 6: Sorrento A day at leisure in Sorrento.
As the hotel occupies a central location you can enjoy the
resort, which you will find within easy walking distance.
Why not join our optional excursion along the Amalfi coast,
surely one of Europe’s most beautiful coastlines, with
breathtaking views of colourful villages cascading down to
the sea, and spend some time in the jewel of the coast, Amalfi.
This evening, there is an included folklore show in Sorrento.

Northern France for dinner and the final night at

little towns. (B,D)

with happy memories. (B)
