Sightseeing (optional) Explore alone or join our optional guided sightseeing tour by coach and on foot, seeing the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain and many other famous sights of this legendary city. |
DAY 5: Sorrento (included); Isle of
Capri (optional) Wander the narrow streets and the harbour area of Sorrento, browsing the souvenir shops, or relax with an Italian pastry and cappuccino. Join our optional excursion, as we sail across the Bay of Naples to magnificent Capri, a popular home to the rich and famous. Explore the island’s cliff-top panoramas, with views across to Vesuvius. |
DAY 7: Mount Etna and Taormina
(included) Mount Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe at 3350 metres. Our coach takes us to within 1900 metres and, if the weather is good, you can visit the summit by local bus (optional), before you return to the town of Taormina for sightseeing. |
DAY 8: Stromboli (optional) Enjoy a boat ride from Milazzo to the island of Panarea, where you can go swimming at Zimmari Beach. Then we travel to the port of San Pietro, from where you can walk or, if you wish, take a local taxi to the village for some dinner and another bathe! In the evening, the boat leaves for the island of Stromboli to view the mighty volcano at night – the best time to see the mountain’s fiery explosions. We watch from offshore, before returning by sea to Milazzo, with a light meal of pasta with wine and water included on board. |
