| Day 1 Naples - Pompeii - Sorrento Pick up in Naples and departure for Pompeii. Guided tour of the Roman excavations and continue to your hotel in Sorrento, where you will be staying for three nights. Day 2 Amalfi Coast (Amalfi - Positano - Ravello) Full day excursion to the amazing Amalfi Coast. Drive on a spectacular road through tiny villages and stop in Amalfi, Positano and Ravello for a nice walk. You can visit Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone, two stunning places in Ravello, which are set in a scenic location overlooking the sea. Day 3 Capri Departure to Capri and visit the island, which is an enchanting and picturesque island made of limestone rock. See the famous "Piazzetta", (tiny square), where celebrities from all over the world hang out, visit the Gardens of Augustus and enjoy the atmosphere of this unique island Day 4 Wine tasting - Trani Morning departure for Puglia region. Visit an historical wine cellar in the area of Avellino, where you will taste the famous "Greco di Tufo" wine and have a lunch with local products. Arrival in Trani and settle at your hotel conveniently located at the seafront. Day 5 Trani Visit Trani, one of Puglia's most picturesque seaside towns. Trani's cathedral, in a beautiful setting on the harbor near the castle, is one of the best examples of a Romanesque church in Puglia. Stroll on the sea front and explore the old town Day 6 Matera Departure for Matera, one of the most ancient towns in the world and settle at your hotel in the famous "Sassi district", that is the "heart" of the old town. Walking tour of Matera in the afternoon, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Sassi date from prehistoric times and were used as housing until the 1950's. Several movies have been filmed in the sassi district including Mel Gibson's, The Passion of the Christ Day 7 Medieval Villages Full day at leisure in Matera or optional excursion to medieval villages. Optional: Private driver to two of the most spectacular and off the beaten path villages in the South of Italy, Pietrapertosa and Castelmezzano, two mountaintop villages ringed by the Lucanian Dolomite. Castelmezzano is surely one of Italy's most theatrical villages: the houses huddle along an impossibly narrow ledge that falls away in gorges to the river. Pietrapertosa is even more amazing: the Saracen fortress at its pinnacle is carved out of the mountain. Return to Matera in the afternoon. Learn more.. Day 8 Alberobello - Ostuni - Lecce Departure for the southern part of Puglia, often referred to as the "heel of the boot". Visit Alberobello, known as the Capital of the Trulli (buildings with conical roof made without mortar) and designated a UNESCO world heritage site, because its collection of some 1500 trulli in an urban environment is unique. Continue to Ostuni. Sitting atop a hill, Ostuni's white buildings make it stand out against the blue sky creating a beautiful image. Wander through the old alleys of its historic center, a pedestrian zone, inside its ancient walls and enjoy a panoramic view from the hilltop. Arriving in Lecce, which is referred as the "Florence of the South" for its marvelous buildings Day 9 Lecce - Otranto After the visit of the town of Lecce in the morning departure for Puglia's most southern part, the Salento Peninsula. Lots of good beaches dot the coast as well as picturesque towns with Greek-style architecture like Otranto, a lovely seaside town with plenty of character. Much of this area is covered with olive groves and vineyards producing the high-quality olive oil and wine that Puglia is known for. Return to Lecce in the late afternoon Day 10 Departure transfer to Brindisi airport Transfer to Brindisi airport/train station/hotel You can add extra nights in Naples or Brindisi, before or after the tour and extend your stay in Italy.
