Meet your professional driver at your centrally located Rome hotel, then hop inside your private, air-conditioned minivan and journey south to Italy’s Campania region. As you travel, take in the pretty scenery, and catch sight of the magnificent hilltop monastery, the Abbey of Montecassino.
After roughly three hours, pull up by Sorrento. Wander along the cobbled streets and be charmed by the historical churches and quaint shops selling ceramics, woodwork and other items. Then, perhaps head to the Cloister of San Francesco to admire its beautiful Arabian-style arches, or simply relax in a cafe and soak up the hustle and bustle.
Next, follow the twists and turns of the famous Amalfi Coast Road to Positano. Gaze in wonder at the white- and pastel-colored houses that slip down the mountainside. Then perhaps browse the designer boutiques, take a walk along the beach, or savor some delicious Italian cuisine at a seaside restaurant (own expense).
When the time comes, join back up with your driver and relax on the return journey to Rome, where your day trip concludes with a drop-off at your hotel.
