  • Naples and its archaeological museum, then a full morning in the streets of Pompeii
  • Three nights in Positano, stacked above its beach on the Amalfi Coast
  • A boat day to Capri, with the Blue Grotto when the sea allows
  • Ravello's cliff gardens and the cathedral steps of Amalfi town
  • A private car for the coast road, so the hairpins are someone else's problem
  • High-speed trains for the long legs, seats reserved
  • Hand-picked hotels and private transfers throughout

Day-by-day itinerary

Day 1

Met at Fiumicino and driven into the city. The first evening is for Trastevere — dinner in its lanes and a walk back across the river past the floodlit Tiber island. Overnight in Rome. · Rome · Private airport transfer

Day 2

The Colosseum, the Forum and the Palatine hill above them, with a private guide and timed entry in the cooler morning. The afternoon is free for the centro storico — the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, the Trevi Fountain — on foot. Overnight in Rome. · Rome

Day 3

The Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel with a guide, then St Peter's, with the Pantheon on the walk back if you missed it. A free afternoon, and a last dinner in Rome. Overnight in Rome. · Rome

Day 4

Ninety minutes north. The Duomo and Brunelleschi's dome in the afternoon, and the Oltrarno across the river for the evening. Overnight in Florence. · Florence · High-speed train

Day 5

Renaissance Florence at close range — the Uffizi in the morning with a timed entry, Michelangelo's David after lunch — finishing at San Miniato for the view back over the city at sunset. Overnight in Florence. · Florence

Day 6

Under three hours down the peninsula to Naples. The afternoon is the National Archaeological Museum, which holds nearly everything of value taken out of Pompeii, and the evening is pizza in the city that invented it. Overnight in Naples. · Naples · High-speed train

Day 7

A guided morning in the excavated streets beneath Vesuvius — houses, bakeries, the forum and the amphitheatre — which need three hours at least. The afternoon is free: the crater of Vesuvius itself for the energetic, or Naples' old centre and the Spaccanapoli. Overnight in Naples. · Naples · Private car

Day 8

Around the bay and over the peninsula to the coast road, with the driver stopping at the viewpoints, and down into Positano, stacked above its beach. Check in and take the evening slowly on the terraces. Overnight in Positano. · Positano · Private car along the coast road

Day 9

A boat across to the island, with the Blue Grotto on the way when the sea allows. Anacapri and the chairlift up Monte Solaro, the Gardens of Augustus above the Faraglioni rocks, and the Piazzetta before the boat back. Overnight in Positano. · Positano · Boat

Day 10

Along the coast to Amalfi town for its cathedral and steps, then up the hill to Ravello and the cliff gardens of Villa Cimbrone and Villa Rufolo, which look down the whole coast. Back to Positano for a last evening by the water. Overnight in Positano. · Positano · Private car

Day 11

A private transfer along the coast and back to Naples airport for your flight home. · Positano · Private transfer

Good to Know

Frequently asked

Because Florence is worth two nights and it sits ninety minutes north of Rome; leaving it out of an Italy trip to save a day is a decision most travellers regret. Going north first and then south means one longer train — Florence to Naples is under three hours by high-speed rail — and the trip ends on the coast, which is the right way round: cities, then sea.
It is the most beautiful and the most photographed, and three nights there is the classic choice, particularly for a honeymoon. It is also steep and busy in summer. Amalfi town is flatter and better connected by ferry; Sorrento is bigger, easier and a little less expensive, with Capri closer. Tell us what matters — the view, the price, or ease of getting around — and we will place you accordingly.
Usually, but not always. The grotto is entered by rowing boat through a low opening and closes whenever the sea is rough, which can happen on an otherwise sunny day. The Capri day is planned so that the island itself — Anacapri, the chairlift to Monte Solaro, the gardens of Augustus — is the point, and the grotto is the bonus if the sea allows.
May, June and September are the sweet spot — warm enough to swim, the boats all running, and the coast not yet at its August peak. July and August are hot and very busy on the coast, and the coast road slows to a crawl. April and October are quieter and cheaper, with some beach clubs and boat services closed; from November to March the coast largely shuts down and we would suggest a cities-only itinerary instead.
Less than people fear. The coast road from Sorrento to Positano and Amalfi is the famous one, and it is driven twice — arriving, and on the Ravello day — in a private car with a local driver. The rest of the coast days use boats, which are quicker and far more pleasant. Anyone prone to car-sickness should sit in the front and take the boat wherever there is a choice; we will plan it that way if you tell us.
