Day 4 Exploring Alberobello Alberobello is a UNESCO World Heritage site - its narrow streets crowded with conical, white-washed trulli, clustered together like mushrooms, constructed entirely without mortar. This region is a paradise for wine-lovers so join an expert vintner with a tasting of Puglia's most robust and structured reds wines - as rich and complex as anything you'll find in Tuscany! The rest of the day is free to explore at your own pace. Don't miss the opportunity this evening to break bread with your friends over a delicious dinner typical of the region.

Day 6 The Sassi di Matera and Sorrento (Relaxed Start) Visit Matera with a Local Expert for an in-depth exploration of the extraordinary ‘Sassi' - a labyrinth of cave dwellings, churches, staircases and arches, hewn out of the solid rock. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Mel Gibson chose Matera as the biblical backdrop for his film 'The Passion of the Christ'. Rolling green hills and wide mountain views pave the way, as you head towards the Tyrrhenian Sea. Take the dramatic coast road to the lively clifftop resort of Sorrento. In the evening, choose your own menu, style and ambience from a handpicked selection of local restaurants.

A Local Expert escorts you to the luxuriant Caesar Augustus Gardens for views of the Faraglioni rocks and a crunchy, refreshing lemon granita - a specialty of the island.

Day 8 The Amalfi Coast and Sorrento (Relaxed Start) Travel along Italy's finest coastline, the Amalfi Coast. Stop for a bird's-eye view of the terraced houses of Positano before boarding minibuses to the heart of the town. There's time to be tempted by the boutiques before returning to Sorrento. Enjoy this beautiful resort with its stunning views down to the clear sparkling waters of the Gulf of Naples. Sorrento's main square, Piazza Tasso, is a hub of activity; maybe relax over coffee and contemplate your options. You could stroll down to the harbour, visit the Church of St. Francis, take a swim from the foot of the cliffs or just relax beside your hotel's pool and enjoy the warm southern sunshine.

Continue beneath the brooding hilltop monastery of Monte Cassino back to Rome where your journey reaches its zenith in the evening. In the heart of the Eternal City, you are treated to the quintessential Italian experience – fine food, wine, music and a private performance of enchanting operetta!
