Day 1

Welcome to Italy

Benvenuti, and welcome to Rome — the Eternal City!

Upon arrival at Rome Fiumicino Airport, your private English-speaking driver will be waiting in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. You’ll be transferred directly to your handpicked boutique hotel in the heart of the city.

Travellers booked in Indulgence style will enjoy the added ease of VIP arrival assistance, including expedited help through immigration and a personal porter to escort you to your transfer.

Take the rest of the day at leisure — perhaps relax after your journey or wander Rome’s cobbled streets and café-lined piazzas, soaking in the city’s timeless atmosphere.

Day 2

Rome’s Timeless Highlights

Today, step into the soul of Rome with your private guide. Begin at the Trevi Fountain, tossing a coin for good luck before moving on to the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, and lively Piazza Navona, brimming with fountains and street performers.

This afternoon, skip the queues and uncover the stories behind the Colosseum and Roman Forum. With insider commentary, you’ll walk in the footsteps of emperors, senators, and gladiators.

Breakfast included

Day 3

A Leisurely Day & Roman Aperitivo

Embrace a slow morning in the city. Perhaps visit a local market, explore Villa Borghese gardens, or enjoy a long lunch tucked into a hidden trattoria.

Later, you’re invited to a hosted aperitivo — a beloved Roman tradition — where you’ll savour regional wines and light bites in a beautiful, atmospheric setting. The perfect toast to your final evening in Rome.

Breakfast included

Rome & Amalfi Explorer

Day 4

Pompeii’s Secrets & Sorrento by the Sea

This morning, travel south with your private driver to the ancient ruins of Pompeii. Your expert guide will bring the haunting streets to life as you explore preserved homes, temples and bathhouses buried by Mount Vesuvius.

Next, continue to a local vineyard where you’ll enjoy a guided wine tasting and rustic lunch inspired by ancient Roman flavours.

Arrive in Sorrento later this afternoon — your coastal base for the next four nights.

Breakfast and lunch included.

Cook with a View

Head into the Sorrentine hills for a hands-on cooking experience at a family-run countryside farm. Pick herbs and vegetables from the garden, then join your host chef to prepare a seasonal multi-course feast.

What Our Travellers Say

Your Questions Answered

This isn’t a group tour or a race through the highlights. Your Rome & Amalfi Getaway is a fully private, tailor-made experience, crafted around you. That means a dedicated local guide for your sightseeing, a private driver for all transfers, and no strangers sharing your itinerary. You’ll travel at your pace, with support at every step — from historic sites in Rome to vineyard lunches and coastal villages.

Absolutely. Many of our guests choose to travel solo — and Italy is especially magical when explored at your own rhythm. From wandering Roman piazzas with a guide who tailors the tour to your interests, to sailing solo to Capri on a private boat, this journey is made to feel personal. A solo supplement applies, but the experience is rich in freedom, safety, and authentic connection.

Very much so. It’s a top choice for honeymooners, anniversary celebrations, and families wanting meaningful travel without the logistical stress. The private nature of this journey allows you to pause for long lunches, take a detour for gelato, or linger at scenic spots — whether you’re travelling with kids, your partner, or multi-generational loved ones.

This itinerary blends iconic landmarks with exclusive moments. Think skipping the lines at the Colosseum, enjoying an aperitivo in a Roman courtyard, exploring Pompeii with a private guide, and savouring a farm-to-table cooking class in the hills of Sorrento.

Popular airlines include Emirates, Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways, and Qantas. Need help booking flights? Just let us know — we’re happy to assist.

Absolutely. We’ve built in free time so you can explore independently or simply unwind. Spend a morning at a café, stroll Sorrento’s markets, or add on a boat to Capri. It’s your holiday, so we’ve designed it to feel structured but never rushed — with enough time to soak in the beauty of each place.

Not at all. Every tour, transfer, and experience is just for you and your travel companions. You’ll have private access to expert guides in Rome, Pompeii and along the Amalfi Coast — plus your own driver for intercity travel and day trips. No coaches, no crowds — just deeply personal, insider-led travel.

This journey is perfect for first-time Italy visitors, culture seekers, romantic travellers, and families who want flexibility without the planning stress.
