Grab a bite to eat and in the afternoon you will depart on a sightseeing tour that will take you to some of Rome’s major religious monuments including the Catacombs located on the outskirts of Rome. Along the way you will see the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the Basilica of St. John Lateran and the Holy Stairs before exploring the Catacombs with a local guide. Serving as underground burial sites for the Early Christians, younger travelers will remain in awe of this historic setting.

Take your time with your additional sightseeing then, when you are ready, return to the hotel to freshen up for dinner in the evening.

Day 04: ROME, POMPEII, VESUVIUS, SORRENTO

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel and then say goodbye to Rome as you meet with your private driver and depart for the Amalfi Coast. Along the way, you will stop for a private walking tour of the archeological ruins of Pompeii. Preserved in volcanic ash after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, there’s no place on earth quite like Pompeii, making the archeological site an unforgettable stop for travelers of all ages. You will break for lunch and then move on to Mount Vesuvius National Park where you will travel up Mount Vesuvius by bus and then have the chance to hike up to the top of this active volcano. Families will enjoy making the 30 minute trek to the summit together and then taking many photos of the breathtaking views. Afterwards, meet back with your driver and continue on to Sorrento, a sunny coastal town filled with cultural monuments and artisan workshops.
