TRIP Highlights

ROME

The Eternal City welcomes you with a dizzying assortment of phenomenally preserved ancient sites, incredibly influential cuisine and a diversity of experiences only a world class metropolis can truly offer.

  • With luxury accommodations in the very center of the city, you will easily be able to visit any site you choose and move smoothly through the ancient capital.

  • Enjoy VIP entry to the Vatican museums and Sistine Chapel. You will be among the restricted group of people allowed to enter the museums and enjoy an elegant breakfast before they open to the public.

  • Explore the city center passing by famous points of interest like Piazza di Spagna, Piazza del Popolo, the Pantheon and Piazza Navona with a break for a traditional lunch in between.

  • VIP guided access to Villa Borghese to enjoy masterpieces by Bernini, Raffaello, Canova, and Caravaggio.

AMALFI COAST

The jagged slopes of the Lattari mountains hide within their very nooks and crannies some of the most diversely interesting small towns found anywhere on our planet. With specializations ranging from hand painted ceramics to a particularly pungent sardine paste, the sweet acidity of the region’s greatest export Lemoncello will surely refresh your palate and prime it for all of the delicacies you will embrace.

  • Luxury accommodations in an 18th century Palazzo (Villa) with five terraced gardens over a white sand beach. *

  • Unique tour behind the scenes of a local mozzarella factory where the world’s best cheese is produced by happy buffalos.

  • Study some of the best preserved Greek ruins in the world at the site of Paestum, where Hera and Athena’s temples tower over the marshlands.

  • Blend into the local culture of each special town along the coast, from the opulence of Positano, to the enchanting panoramas of Ravello high in the cliffs, the frescoes and artisanal shops of Amalfi, the low lying beaches of Cetara, all the way to Furore above the clouds.

  • Michelin awarded chefs and internationally recognized master craftspeople will serve you private experiences to which few people are privy.

  • Witness both extremes from above the cliffs to private boat rides along the hidden caves and inlets that dot the coast.

  • Marvel at the tragedy of the eruption of Vesuvius in the archeological site of Pompeii, preserving the ancient town in its exact conditions from that fateful day in 79 A.D.

*ACCOMMODATIONs on the Amalfi Coast:

Our accommodation for the second half of the week is in a beautifully renovated villa on the sea.

The palace boasts five terraced gardens (with an outdoor jacuzzi) overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea with breathtaking views over the town of Vietri sul Mare, the Amalfi Coast and the Gulf of Salerno.  The amazing beauty of the 18th century Palazzo will fascinate you with its enchanting rooms and beautiful frescoed halls.  Lose yourself in the culture and beauty of times gone by:  stroll through the tastefully decorated halls, read fine books from the well-stocked library, sit in the delightful gardens or simply enjoy breakfast surrounded by the Mediterranean colors of frescoes and hand painted ceramics, with the sound of a gramophone playing an old record in the background.

The villa has three floors, nine en-suite double bedrooms (only one with external, but still private bathroom), seven in the main building and two in the apartment upstairs with separate access from the upper yard.  Two beautiful living rooms, a large kitchen (can be used only with local personnel, breakfast is served every day) and an old library where guests can relax reading or just admiring original old newspapers and books.
