About the trip

This Riviera Travel escorted tour anchors in Sorrento for seven nights, offering ample time to absorb the character of the Bay of Naples region. An initial walking tour introduces the town's faded Mediterranean facades and the local industry around Sorrento lemons, including limoncello and lemon-scented products.

The itinerary balances ancient history with leisure, spotlighting Pompeii's extensive ruins, where traces of Roman daily life linger in mosaics and graffiti, and an authentic farm lunch nearby provides a welcome break. A boat trip to Capri reveals a harbour with whitewashed shops backed by towering cliffs and an optional visit to the Blue Grotto. The coastal drive along the Amalfi coastline includes Positano's colourful hillside homes and Ravello's Rufolo Gardens, known for their medieval architecture and views reaching Salerno.

Herculaneum's well-preserved streets and villas, uncovered beneath volcanic ash, offer another side to Vesuvius's destructive legacy. The holiday ends after a relaxed morning here, before transfer to the airport. It’s a measured week that blends historical insight with the region's more gentle pleasures.
