Dinner and overnight in Sorrento.

After breakfast you’ll be embarked to Capri Island. Depending on weather conditions, you’ll take a boat ride to the popular and dreamy “Grotta Azzurra” (Blue Grotto), where sunlight passes into an underwater cavity and shines through the seawater, creating a magical blue reflection.

After visiting the Blue Grotto, continue to the Giardini di Augusto (Gardens of Augustus), a beautifully landscaped terrace offering panoramic views of the iconic Faraglioni rock formations and the Marina Piccola Bay — an ideal spot for photos and a relaxing stroll. You’ll see wonderful views of the Bay of Naples, with free time for lunch (lunch not included).

After lunch, take some free time to explore Capri at your leisure or go shopping, and in the afternoon, you will check in at your new hotel for a well-deserved rest.

Set out early to discover the beauty of Capri at your own pace. Explore the many shops and restaurants of this wonderful island or take a swim in the Gulf of Naples.

If the excursion to the Blue Grotto was not possible on day 3 due to sea conditions, you may choose to take the rowboat excursion today.

Return to your hotel for your last evening in Capri.

After breakfast, depart to Sorrento by ferry, once on the mainland, you will board on a coach for Positano, driving along the Amalfi Coast on the most famous road in the Campania region.

In Positano, check in at your hotel and enjoy the rest of the day at your own pace.

See all that Positano has to offer as you set off to explore the ancient fishermen’s village after breakfast. Known for its cubic Empire houses perched upon cliffs looking over turquoise water, Positano is the most well-known summer resort area on the whole peninsula.

Walk to the heart of town on Via Pasitea and weave your way through the city’s narrow streets, terraces, and gardens overlooking the bay. Be sure to buy one of the straw handbags or handmade sandals for which Positano is famous.

Return to your hotel for one last overnight.
