Amid the serene allure of the Pantheon and the haunting ruins of Pompeii, the majesty and allure of Ancient Rome awaken our senses. From Sorrento, we island-hop through the Mediterranean to Sicily’s Palermo, where faded grandeur, historic churches, rich cuisine, and hidden catacombs await.
Next, we reach Sardinia, a land of ancient giants and stone fortresses, with breathtaking wild coastlines and sweeping white-sand beaches. Our journey concludes with the vibrant Spanish charm of the Balearic Islands and Barcelona.
