Known as the 'Eternal City' of the Roman Empire, Rome is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with its historical centre.
Rome has an immensely rich historical heritage and cosmopolitan atmosphere, making it one of the world’s most-visited capitals. Packed with historical attractions, and with something for absolutely everyone, we’re guaranteed to enjoy our time in this famous city.
We’ll be able to enjoy free time to explore to our heart’s content, so we can see some of the city’s best-known attractions. Take the time to discover St. Peter’s Square, the Colosseum, the Sistine Chapel or Trevi Fountain, the choice is yours.
During the day an optional city sightseeing tour will be available.
Sorrento, with its exquisite views out over the Bay of Naples and traditional architecture that’s synonymous with this part of Italy, makes for an excellent included excursion during our holiday.
If you wish to be introduced to all Sorrento has to offer then join our optional Taste of Sorrento excursion, where you can combine your visit to Sorrento with a guided walking tour of the town and a visit to a Limoncello factory.
Limoncello is the signature lemon liqueur of the area, and our visit will include a short tour of the factory and orchard along with a sampling of this famous drink.

In AD 79, the mighty Mount Vesuvius erupted and bathed the Roman city of Herculaneum in volcanic ash.
Today, on our optional excursion, we explore this fascinating site, which was left undiscovered until the late-18th century.
Similar to nearby Pompeii, Herculaneum provides an unprecedented opportunity to see how its people lived two thousand years ago.

We journey through the scenic countryside on our optional excursion, firstly to Castel Gandolfo on the shores of Lake Albano and home to the Pope’s summer residence. Most of the town is part of the independent papal state of the Vatican City, and when in residence the Pope addresses the crowd from the balcony of the palace. (Please note: entrance into the Pope’s summer residence is prohibited).
Later, we continue to Frascati for an included short visit to a pergolato, where we can sample some of the local produce including snacks of porchetta, cheese, olives and wine.
Frascati is a small, relaxed town with a slower pace of life, cleaner air and a far more casual feel than the nearby capital. There will be some free time to explore the town at your leisure before we head back to our hotel.

As our holiday draws to a close, we say goodbye to Fiuggi and will travel north through the night.
Return home.

2025 is a very exciting and busy year for Rome due to the
Pope’s Jubilee – this is something that happens every 25 years.
Across the year there is a calendar of special events
specifically in and around the Vatican city and processions through the city
which will generate more tourists visiting Rome.
For your holiday, our aim is to ensure our customers will
get the best experience of Rome during this period.
The final itinerary and excursion content will be confirmed
on your travel documents a couple of weeks prior to departure.
Thereafter there is still a possibility the excursion days
may be swapped around on-tour and hence it is recommended not to pre-book any
local attractions.
