Rome, Sorrento & Amalfi Coast Tour | 8 Days

When you arrive in Rome, also known as the Eternal City, a private vehicle will be ready and waiting to welcome you and take you to your hotel.

As you journey to the hotel, you'll see why Rome is considered the epitome of historical richness in the Western world. You have the rest of the day free to unwind and enjoy the Italian capital at your leisure.

Greca Tip: Add extra nights during Step 1 of 3 to extend your stay and make the most of your time in Rome.

After enjoying our breakfast, we will begin a day designed to discover Rome at our own pace. We will have 24-hour Hop-On Hop-Off bus tickets included, offering a convenient and flexible way to explore the Eternal City while admiring its most iconic landmarks and historic neighborhoods.

Throughout the day, we may board and leave the bus as often as we wish, allowing us to visit renowned attractions such as the Colosseum, Piazza Venezia, the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, the Circus Maximus, and the surroundings of Vatican City, while enjoying informative commentary that brings the city's fascinating history to life.

For those wishing to further enrich their experience, an optional visit to the Colosseum, the world's most famous ancient amphitheater and a symbol of the Roman Empire, is available. Alternatively, you may choose to explore the extraordinary Vatican Museums, home to one of the world's most important art collections, culminating with a visit to the breathtaking Sistine Chapel, renowned for Michelangelo's magnificent frescoes.

At the end of the day, we will return to the hotel to relax and enjoy a well-deserved evening of rest.

Greca Tip: Make the most of your Hop-On Hop-Off pass by stopping in the charming Trastevere district at sunset. Its cobbled streets, lively piazzas, and traditional trattorias offer one of the most authentic Roman experiences.

Early in the morning and after a tasty breakfast, you will have to get to Rome Termini on your own to take the train to Naples, the gateway to southern Italy.

Once in Naples, our transfer will wait for you at the station to continue the way to Sorrento.

Sorrento is a coastal city in southwestern Italy, facing the Gulf of Naples on the Sorrentine Peninsula. Perched on cliffs that separate the city from its busy marinas, it is famous for its panoramic views of the sea and Piazza Tasso, a square lined with cafes. The historic center is a maze of narrow passages home to the Chiesa di San Francesco, a 14th-century church with a serene cloister. 

Greca Tip: Remember to bring a bottle that you can refill at the drinking fountains - drinking water fountains are available throughout Italy.

After an exquisite breakfast, we will have the day off to visit Sorrento's old town, which is a concentration of narrow streets full of shops, bars, ice cream parlors, and artisans. Completely pedestrianized, it is an ideal area at any time, be it early in the morning, in the afternoon, or at night, you will always find many attractions and places to visit.

Be sure to visit the Duomo di Sorrento, it has a white façade and a bell tower a short distance away, offering panoramic views of the historic center. The cathedral dates from the 15th century, although it has subsequently undergone many changes, the last even in the 20th century when its current façade was added.

Greca Tip: Don't miss the experience of eating a granita al limone in one of the bars.

After a delicious breakfast in your hotel, you will be transferred to the beautiful Amalfi coast. 

Amalfi was founded in the year 830, the maximum splendor of the city came during the 9th century when it was part of one of the four Italian Maritime Republics. At this historical moment, the navigation rules were governed by the so-called Amalfi Tables, the oldest marine code in the world

Greca Tip: The ideal is to get lost in the narrow streets and squares to enjoy all the history of any of these beautiful cities.

After an exquisite breakfast, you will have free time to explore the town that was a trading superpower in the Middle Ages. 

The Amalfi Coast is a 50-kilometer stretch of coastline along the southern edge of Italy's Sorrento Peninsula, in the Campania region. It is a popular vacation destination with vertical cliffs and a rugged shoreline with small beaches and pastel-colored fishing villages.

The coastal path from the port city of Salerno to Sorrento over the cliffs passes grand villas, terraced vineyards, and cliff-top lemon groves

At night you will have a good rest at your hotel.

Greca Tip: Today you can walk around, eat arancini, pizza, and freshly battered and deep-fried calamari, or enjoy a refreshing swim in the crystal clear waters of nearby beaches.
