ROMEIN ONE DAYThis is a unique opportunity to visit the “Eternal City” one of the greatest capitals in the worldand the centre of world Catholicism. Rome is a bustling city with fabulous shops and boutiques but, amidst the hurry of everyday modern life, beautifully reserved buildings and monuments stand out on unexpected corners, a constant reminder of her glorious and sometimes turbulent past.The day has been carefully planned to include all the most important and best known places and monuments; Villa Borghese, the River Tiber, the Palace of Justice, St. Angel Castle and the Roman Forum – due to traffic restrictions these sights will be seen from the coach. The guide will also leave you at St. Peter’s Basilica where you will then have some free time. After visit to the Coliseum the most important monument of the ancient Rome.Arrival time at the hotel expected 11.00 pm. Reminder: legs and arms must be covered when visiting the churches.

POMPEI/ ERCOLANOFull day guided excursion bycoach, to the famous archeological sites of Pompei and Herculaneum. Pompei holds an intense fascination for visitors today. Following the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 AD, Pompei lay buried and forgotten for hundreds of years. The town is high on the list of Wonders of the World and the excavations begun in the 18th Century are still being carried out today. Our guide will take you slowly throught some of ancient streets of Pompei where you cansee Baths, Forums and Villas builtby the prosperous Roman in theyear 80 BC. Marvel at the fabulously preserved Frescos which adorned the walls and floors on the Villas. When the catastrophe of 79 AD occurred Herculaneum was submerged under a torrent of mud and lava that hardened into a soft tufa (a kind of course rock) that preserved many of the wooden parts of houses and household objects which can be seen today. A large part of the town is still buried, and certainly many art treasures are still to be found. Return to Sorrento in the afternoon.

POMPEI/ VESUVIOPompei holds an intense fascination for visitors today. Following the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 A.D., Pompei lay buried and forgotten for hundreads of years. The town is high on the list of the Wonders of the World and the excavations begun in the 18th Century are still being carried out today. Our guide will take you slowly through some of the ancient streets of Pompei where you can see Baths, Forums and Villas built by the prosperous Romans in the year 80 B.C. Marvel at the fabulously preserved Frescos which adorned the walls and floors of the Villas. Even if your interests do not lie in history, this is an archeological site that cannot fail to impress you. Mount Vesuvius dominates the Bay of Naples. It is the only active volcano on the mainland of Europe. The slopes were once covered with vineyards and woods and provided an innocent looking backdrop for the bustling town below. The coach will take you to within 1.000 metres of the top of Vesuvius and from here you can walk to the very top and admire the splendid panoramic views across the bay. (From the blackened crater rises a single plume of smoke, a reminder that the volcano is only sleeping for now...) Reminder: Comfortable, closed in shoes and your camera.

HISTORY, ART AND CULTURE

VESUVIOHALF DAYHalf day tour escorted by guide and by de luxe motorcoach. Pick up from the hotels. Excursion by bus to Mount Vesuvius up to 3.000 feet and then on foot to the crater. Visit of the Volcano. On return to Sorrento we will be stopping to visit the Mineralogical Museum of Vico Equense.

ERCOLANOHALF DAYOur journey takes us along the coast road through Castellammare di Stabia and out along the motorway to Herculaneum. Herculaneum was destroyed along with Pompei in 79 AD, and was rediscovered in 1709. It was a residential town without Pompei’s commercial importance, surrounded by the villas of wealthy Romans. When the catastrophe of 79 AD occurred, Herculaneum was buried by a torrent of mud that hardened into a soft tufa (a kind of course rock) that preserved many of the wooden parts of houses and household objects which can be seen today. A large portion of old Herculaneum is still buried under the modern town and even today excavations are going on to discover what treasures lie buried under the rock.

POMPEIHALF DAYPompei holds an intense fascination for visitors today.Following the eruption of the Volcano Mount Vesuvius in the year 79 AD, Pompei lay buried and forgotton for hundreds of years. The Town is high on the list of Wonders of the World and the excavations begun in the 18th Century are still being carried out today. Our guide will take you slowly throught some of the ancient streets of Pompei where you can see Baths, Forums and Villas built by the prosperous Romans in the year 80 BC.Marvel at the fabulously preserved Frescos which adorned the walls and floors of the Villas.Even if your interests do not lie in history, this an archeological site that cannot fail to impress you.

HALF DAY EXCURSIONS

CASERTA & OUTLETThis full day trip – brand new for 2012 – has a duo of delights on the agenda.You’ll kick the day off in style with a guided tour around the beautiful Caserta Palace.It’s no wonder this royal building has earned its stripes as a World Heritage Site.Built back in 1752 for the Bourbon king Charles III, it took 90 years to complete, and was one of the largest constructions of its time. Be prepared to do some walking. Inside, you’ll find 1,200 rooms including 24 state apartments, a library and a theatre.And outside, you can wander the pretty gardens and woodlands filled with flowers, fountains and waterfalls. You may well do a double take while you’re here – the palace has featured in films like Star Wars, Mission Impossible and Angels and Demons.For the second part of your day, we will whisk you off to the nearby McArthur Glen outlet for an afternoon of retail therapy. This attractive shopping complex has around 140 stores, including designer brands Prada, Cavalli and Valentino, and high street favourites like Billabong, Gas and Levi’s.Plus, we’ll give you a special 15% off discount voucher, exclusive to our customers.

POMPEI & ERCOLANO SELECTFull day excursion by minibus, exclusively for 15 people.A great opportunity to combine two fascinating archaeological sites in one day. These diverse towns were frozen in time for over 1.600 years following the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. Pompei preserved in ash, is a superb example of a roman commercial city.Herculaneum, by contrast preserved in mud, war a quiet seaside town. Both are brought to life by our guide’s commentary.Light lunch in Pompei is included.

CASSINO ONE DAYTake a journey into the past on this brand new excursion for 2012. The day teams up a visit to Monte Cassino Abbey, and the nearby war cemetery and World War II museum. Your first port of call is just outside the town of Cassino, where we’ll head to the historic abbey. Set on a hilltop, it dates all the way back to 529BC when St. Benedict of Nursia established the first monastery here. During it’s 1,400-year lifetime, it has been destroyed and rebuilt four times – most recently following the 1944 battle of Monte Cassino in World War II. It has been beautifully restored, and highlights include it’s ornate basilica; decorated in stucco, and mosaic relics; both of which survived the bombings. Plus, the views over Cassino and the surrounding countryside from its grounds are nothing short of spectacular. From here you’ll head down to the Commonwealth War Cemetery. Many of the thousands of soldiers who fell during the battle are buried here. It is wonderfully well kept, with pristine gravestones, and sits at the foot of the abbey. After some free time for lunch, your last stop is at the World War II museum. Inside you’ll find a collection of fascinating exhibitions, which commemorate all nationalities that lost their lives in the battle.
