Italy, a country known for its amazing history, stunning landscapes, and vibrant culture, is also home to plenty of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. From the ancient ruins of Rome to the breathtaking coastal beauty of Sorrento, Naples, and Capri, these incredible locations offer a glimpse into Italy's diverse and fascinating heritage.

 

Rome

The Eternal City, Rome, is where history comes alive. It is literally our roman empire. From the iconic Colosseum to the ruins of the Roman Forum, Rome is a treasure trove of ancient wonders. Here you can immerse yourself in the fascinating stories of gladiators and emperors as you explore the archaeological marvels. Don't forget to toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain and make a wish, a tradition believed to ensure your return to Rome someday.

 

 

Sorrento

Leave the hustle and bustle of Rome behind and venture south to the picturesque town of Sorrento. Perched atop cliffs overlooking some of the bluest waters we have ever seen is a haven of natural beauty and Mediterranean charm. Take a walk along the narrow streets lined with pastel-coloured buildings, and treat yourself to an aperol once you are there - exploring is thirsty work! Make sure you visit the Amalfi Coast too, a UNESCO site, for breathtaking views and unforgettable sunsets.

 

 

 

Naples

Just a short drive from Sorrento lies Naples, the food capital of Italy! Explore the narrow alleys of the historic city, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where ancient churches and palazzos stand alongside bustling pizzerias and cafes - here you will find the best pizza in the world! Don't miss the opportunity to indulge in authentic Neapolitan food like arancini, bruschetta and so much more! For a glimpse into Naples' underground world, descend into the catacombs of San Gennaro or explore the ancient ruins of Pompeii, another UNESCO site nearby.

 

 

 

 

Capri

Finally the Island of Capri is a true paradise of rugged cliffs, hidden coves, and gorgeous seas. Take a boat tour or even a ferry around the island to marvel at the iconic Faraglioni rock formations and the amazing Blue Grotto. Spend the day soaking in the sun in, hiking along scenic trails like the Path of the Gods hike. This is the perfect base to explore Italy’s UNESCO sites!
