Itinerary

1

Meta

This scenic stop in Meta allows you to take photos and have a memory of the picturesque Sorrento! Meta rises about 111 meters above sea level and extends over an area of about 2.5 km², which includes both coastal areas, with over 800 meters of coastline, and mountainous areas, with the hamlet of Alberi, Monte Vico Alvano to the South East, 642 meters, and part of the Camaldoli Mountains.

Positano

Positano is perhaps a unique place in the world! It is a jewel of spontaneous architecture, set on the rock overlooking the sea. Clusters of colorful houses, sometimes with a cubic appearance, are built on often very steep steps, which descend to the beach, connected by alleys and long stairways.

3

Sorrento

Legend has it that the mythical Sirens lived in its sea and tempted Ulysses with a melodious song. And still today going on that sea - with blue and green reflections, in a thousand different shades according to the play of the sun - one can imagine that the Sirens emerge from the waves - beautiful and persuasive. But perhaps Sorrento is a Siren who captivates and bewitches with the scents of lemon and orange trees, with olive trees with dark twisted trunks and silver leaves that move slowly, with a slight sound, in the wind that comes from the sea, with rocks born from the distant fury of a volcano.

Archaeological Park of Pompeii

Pompeii is a city in Campania, located in the Gulf of Naples and on the slopes of the Vesuvius volcano. It is a city with very ancient origins: it was born as an Oscan settlement, was later inhabited by the Samnites and then, starting from the first century BC, conquered by the Romans. City buried by the eruption of Vesuvius. Today it is known as the city where there is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. The Roman city was in fact buried by lava following the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. The lava and ash have been a sort of cover which has allowed the city to maintain itself over the centuries and to be protected from bad weather; for this very reason the city has remained intact and can be visited today. Note: Remaining time is for the round-trip ride and time between attractions.
