About this trip

Eleven nights running from Venice to Rome to the Amalfi Coast and finishing on Santorini, mixing Italy's classic historic cities with a few days unwinding on a Greek island. It's a private trip with some guided elements built in, so you get the key sights covered without being tied to a big group.

You start with three nights in Venice, getting lost in the canals and taking a gondola ride, before two nights in Rome for the big ancient sites. From there it's the train down to Naples, using it as a base to reach the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii, then a flight over to Santorini for three nights of whitewashed villages and sunset views to close things out.

Hotels throughout are 4-star, and the pace is easy rather than rushed, though you do move base four times across the 11 days.

What you'll do

  • Guided walking tour and gondola ride through Venice's canals
  • Priority access visit to the Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill
  • Train journey from Rome to Naples
  • Excursion to the ruins of Pompeii and along the Amalfi Coast
  • Fly from Naples to Santorini
  • Island bus tour taking in local villages and sunset in Oia
Good to know
  • Private trip, so it suits families or small groups travelling together rather than joining strangers
  • Easy pace overall, but you do change base four times across the 11 days
  • Runs over Christmas and New Year, so worth checking how sites and transport operate over the holidays
