You will take the ferry to the Marina Grande, the main port of Capri. Once on the island, you will be able to see the magnificent Blue Grotto, weather and sea conditions permitting. This is a beautiful sea cave which reflects the sunlight spilling into the cave, casting a beautiful blue glow.

It was constructed in the 1240s by Emperor Frederico II. Lunch follows at your own leisure. After lunch the day continues on to the stunning Castellana Caves, which were discovered in 1938 and opened to the public in 1939. The cave system is around 60 meters deep and filled with small lakes, stalactites and stalagmites. The guided walking tour offers an intriguing look inside the caves, covering a distance of almost 2 miles. The natural beauty and wonder of the caves is sure to impress all who experience them.

During the day’s sites, you will admire the beautiful statue honoring Sant’ Oronzo, the patron saint of this area, perched high upon a beautiful column. The Basilica of Santa Croce will also be seen, with stunning Corinthian columns flanking the main entrance. The Palazzo dei Celestini will showcase the strong Baroque influence on its ornate facade. The Roman Amphitheatre is another ancient site that was built in the 2nd century and is now used for various art and religious events.The next stop is the beautiful village of Ostuni, set upon the top of a hill. The majority of the buildings and homes are white-washed, lending the nickname the “White City.” Lunch will be at your leisure, and in the afternoon, you will travel to Alberobello. This unique town and UNESCO World Heritage Site has roughly 1,500 trulli, which are remarkable whitewashed stone huts with a charming cone shaped roof that can only be found in this part of Apulia. You will then return to the town of Noci, where you will have a delightful dinner and stay overnight at a local hotel.

  • Day 5 – Friday: NOCI – MATERA – SORRENTO or ROME

    After your buffet breakfast at the hotel in Noci, you will depart to Matera. This town lies in a small canyon that was eroded through the years by a river that has since turned into a small stream. It is known for the Sassi di Matera (Stones of Matera), which are dwellings that were carved into the rocks and used by the citizens of Matera for many centuries. The Sassi bear a striking resemblance to areas around Jerusalem, making Matera a prime shooting location for many Biblical productions. Matera is also part of the UNESCO World Heritage list and the beauty of its unique landscape is sure to blow you away. There will be a bit of time for a snack while in Matera and then you will return to either Sorrento or Rome via Pompeii on your deluxe motor coach.
