Rome is undeniably stunning, from its rich ancient culture, delectable cuisine and coffees to its uniquely European experiences. This city is packed full of sights; with thousands of years of history layered upon itself - you'll find everything from Roman ruins to Renaissance art. It's also home to Vatican City, and sights galore.
Explore and discover the Roman Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine, discover the Vatican, the smallest independent state in the world; throw a coin in the Trevi Fountain, marvel at the Pantheon, sit on the Spanish Steps, wander the Piazzas, eat the best gelato, climb Palatine Hill, walk the Ancient Appian Way and so much more!
2 nights in Naples
The proximity of the city of Naples (Napoli) to the Vesuvius gives its inhabitants a certain edge. Its reputation as the most vibrant city in Italy can be a double-edged sword, explaining why some tourists like it and some hate it outright. Nonetheless, the charm of Naples resides in its narrow streets with numerous ancient churches, street markets, cafes, bars and restaurants, all leading to a cacophony of sounds and images embodying the spirit of the Italian South.
Visit and discover the Ancient Ruins of Pompeii, Climb Mount Vesuvius, sail to the Island of Capri, explore the Nativity Markets, visit the National Archaeological Museum, the Secret Underground World and the San Gennaro Catacombs, visit the Ruins of Herculaneum, enjoy the Piazzas of the city, and so much more.
2 nights in Taormina (Sicily)
Taormina is perched on a series of high terraces overhung with tropical gardens overlooking a breath taking coastline and views of Mount Etna. It oozes elegance, style and glamour which has been created by a rich history full of romantic myths, legends and love stories. The town is full of beautiful flower draped villas and palazzos amongst candlelit narrow alleys with boutiques, cafes and restaurants on the pedestrianised Corso Umberto.
Known as a bridge between the East and West, thanks to its geographic location on the northwestern shore of Sicily, this Italian city is the island's center of tourism. Travelers will discover plenty of historic and cultural attractions in Palermo - the result of a long and dramatic history of conquest.
Years of transitioning between Phoenician, Arab, Byzantine, and Roman rule can be seen today in a city full of souk-like bazaars, diverse architectural styles, and a large variety of cuisine.
Discover The Cathedral, The Three Markets (Ballarò, Vucciria, Capo), Pizza at Pollicino, Mondello, Teatro Massimo, Castello Utveggio on the top of Mt. Pellegrino, Chiesa della Martorana - a Byzantine Church, Teatro Massimo (3rd largest theatre in Erope), Quattro Canti (represents the four primary districts) and Piazza Pretoria, and so much more.
