Grand Journey

Discover the charming port town of Civitavecchia, the gateway to Rome and the treasures of the Eternal City. Venture through Civitavecchia, noted for its fine seafood and beautiful monuments. Then, travel to Rome, with more than 2,500 years of history and ancient landmarks that will leave you with memories for a lifetime.

Famous for its stunning views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the nearby island of Capri, its vibrant cultural and culinary scene, and its convenient and beautiful location as a starting point for exploring the stunning Amalfi Coast, Sorrento surely has a lot to offer the happy traveler who finds themselves here. The views are legendary; the town`s cliffside position offers spectacular vistas that have captivated visitors for centuries while the food is off the scale delicious. Sorrento`s culinary offerings are a delightful journey through the flavors of the Amalfi Coast, where freshness and simplicity define the cuisine, allowing the region`s high-quality ingredients - and culinary creative talent - to shine. If you can tear yourself away from the restaurants, cafes and gelatarias, then take a stroll through the pretty streets. Sorrento`s history spans centuries of civilization and cultural influence, with origins tracing back to the ancient Greeks, and layers of Roman, medieval, and Renaissance influence wocen into the tapestry of daily life.

Discover the fascinating world of a typical Lemon Garden of Sorrento. Visit a typical citrus grove where you will learn about the varieties of citrus fruits, cultivation techniques and local traditions surrounding citrus production in Sorrento, as well as the process of limoncello production. Sorrent is a place where citrus fruits have been cultivated for centuries using techniques and methods passed down from generation to generation. The fruits are of the highest quality and have an intense and aromatic flavor, thanks to the unique terrain and mild climate of the area. The Sorrento Oval Lemon, the typical Sorrentine lemon, is a true heritage of the city of Sorrento, particularly appreciated for its oval shape and its thick and fragrant peel rich in oil glands that give it that sublime perfume and characteristic aroma that makes it perfect to produce liqueurs, candied fruit and jams. At the end of your visit, you will have the chance to taste the fresh citrus fruits and derived products such as jams, liqueurs and a sweet typical of the area.

After taking the tender boat to Sorrento, drive for approximately one and a half hours to Herculaneum. Because of the infamous earthquake, many of the affluent inhabitants left before the eruption in the following decade. Therefore, Herculaneum has none of the eerie body casts found at Pompeii. Since it was buried in mud, the opulent homes were well preserved. The mosaic at Casa del Nettuno de Anfitrite, for example, still shows intense color. The deities adorning some of the private baths and fountains are so vivid, scenes from an ancient era spring to life. At the two-story House of the Deer, paintings and furnishings reveal wealth and opulent lifestyles. After exploring Herculaneum with your guide, enjoy a pizza slice with soft drink outside the excavations, before you will rejoin your motor coach for the return along the peninsula to Sorrento and your ship.

When Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, Pompeii was buried in ash, while Herculaneum was interred in mud. This exploration will appeal to those with a keen interest in archaeology and ancient art.After exploring Herculaneum with your guide, enjoy a pizza slice with soft drink outside the excavations, before returning to your ship. &nbsp;

Ruins of Herculaneum

Widely hailed as one of Italy’s most picturesque destinations, Amalfi is a stunning visual feast. Natural landscapes, historic architecture, and charming streets jostle with heart achingly beautiful coastal vistas for pride of place on the picturesque podium. The town’s dramatic setting along the cliffs of the Amalfi Coast, with the turquoise waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea below, is perhaps one of Italy’s finest views. Historically renowned as a maritime powerhouse during the Middle Ages, Amalfi’s influence is reflected in its architecture, such as the impressive Cathedral of Saint Andrew with its ornate facade and distinctive Byzantine and Arab-Norman influences. The town’s narrow streets and staircases wind through pastel-colored houses, creating a postcard-worthy scenes time after time while the iconic Cloister of Paradise, a tranquil haven, offers a glimpse into Amalfi’s monastic history. However, no trip to Amalfi would be complete without tasting the local gastronomy. The region is world famous for its cuisine and Amalfi’s local fare is a celebration of local flavors, with fresh seafood, citrus fruits, and artisanal limoncello capturing the essence of the Mediterranean.

Giotto, Brunelleschi, Botticelli and Michelangelo made their marks of genius here. This cradle of the Renaissance owes its UNESCO status to the overwhelming influence the city and its museums, churches, architecture and artworks have had on Europe and, ultimately, the world. Vestiges of this enlightened period are everywhere today – at the Uffizi gallery, the Palazzos Pitta and Vecchio and throughout the city streets. 

'Cinque Terre' is Italian for five lands, but this name actually refers to the five picturesque villages along the Ligurian coastline that has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Begin your journey at the pier as you reach La Spezia by motor coach and then board your exclusive minibus, the only vehicle allowed in the small villages. First, enjoy your visit to the fishing villages of Rio Maggiore and Manarola, considered jewels of the coast with their vibrant colors and characteristics. After a breathtaking drive along the coast, your final stop will be Monterosso al Mare, the area&rsquo;s oldest and most famous village. Upon arrival, enjoy a typical Ligurian meal, which will include some of the most famous foods and ingredients of the region.&nbsp; You&rsquo;ll replay this memorable experience over and over in your mind as you journey back to port via train and motor coach to your ship in Livorno. &nbsp;

Today, the tower leans 14 degrees from perpendicular. After the outside visit to the tower proceed to explore the Cathedral that magnificently expresses in its exterior as well as interior the wealth of Pisa in ancient times.

Private Full-Day Van & English-Speaking Guide - Livorno

Start your day with a drive to San Gimignano, the Town of Hundred Towers. Situated on a picturesque hill, San Gimignano dominates the Val d&#39;Elsa, inhabited since the times of the Etruscans. This town went through its most prosperous period towards the end of the Middle Ages, when the urban civilization flourished. Upon arrival in San Gimignano, you will have time to explore the ancient squares, buildings, narrow and shady alleys, and soaring slender towers of this stunning town. Next proceed to heart of the Chianti area to stop at a marvellous castle that is one of the most known Chianti wine producer: Verrazzano Castle. Initially the Castle was an Etruscan then a Roman settlement and it has represented a firm and safe post in an area interested for many centuries by political and dynastic conflicts. There is a great tradition of winemaking here: the &ldquo;vineyards situated in Verrazzano&rdquo; are mentioned in a manuscript which dates back to 1150 and is preserved at the abbey of Passignano (wrongly reported as &ldquo;1170&rdquo;). The Castle became the property of the Verrazzano family in the VII century. Giovanni da Verrazzano, the navigator and discoverer of the bay of New York and of the majority of the East coast of nowadays U.S., was born here in 1485. The clay-calcareous soil, the particular morphology, location (East exposure) and elevation (280-450m asl) create a unique terroir which characterizes all wines in a very original way for their scent, structure, longevity. Visit the castle cellars and then relax on a light lunch paired with some of the castle wines.

Embark on a journey to the enchanting San Gimignano, known as the Town of Hundred Towers. Explore its ancient squares, narrow alleys, and soaring towers that tell tales of the Middle Ages.

The vineyard extends for about 9 hectares at the foot of the hills, surrounded by the Mediterranean scrublands and the &ldquo;Fossa di Bolgheri&rdquo; stream.&nbsp; The area was also a place of ancient dwelling; the remains of an old Etruscan blast furnace have been found there on the summit of an Aeolian hill. Next, experience the pleasure of visiting the estate and the cellars.&nbsp; Following your wine tasting, you will drive the short distance to the village of Bolgheri where you will have time to browse, shop, or sit in one of the caf&eacute;s for coffee or perhaps another glass of the famous wine. The approach to Bolgheri is a famous cypress-lined road celebrated by Italian poet Giosue Carducci in his poem Davanti San Guido.

In order to understand our guests’ preferences, and better recommend bespoke products and services we may create a “Guest Profile” by linking together and analyzing Guest Personal Data collected in the following circumstances: (i) when you purchase our products and services; (ii) when you travel with companies owned or operated by A&K Travel and its subsidiary companies; (iii) when you use our digital services; (iv) through cookies and other tracking technologies; (v) when you contact us or submit information to us; and (vi) through feedback and surveys.


During our interactions we may collect special categories of personal data about you as detailed below.This may be because you want us to have the information or inadvertently as result of a group you travel with (please see example below).It may also be because we need to know certain personal data about you which is special category data in order that we can provide you with the best possible service and advise you whether a trip is suitable for you.Health is one of the best examples of this.

E.g.If we receive a group booking from a specific religious association we will inadvertently have details of religious beliefs of those individuals.The same can be said for groups from political associations and trade union associations.

E.g.We are sometimes asked whether certain medication is allowed to be taken into certain jurisdictions which discloses certain medical conditions.

Other special category of personal data which we may end up receiving from you include details about your:

dietary requirements which may disclose your religious or philosophical beliefs;

You are not under any obligation to consent to us processing or disclosing your sensitive information in the manner described above and in our privacy policy. However, if you don’t agree then we won’t be able to process your data or transfer your data to our suppliers. As you will appreciate it would then be difficult to actually provide your holiday because making your holiday arrangements involves processing your data and transferring your data to our suppliers in order that they can provide the services.

If you have concerns with us processing or transferring your data then please discuss that with us at your earliest convenience in order that we can book your holiday and provide you with the necessary services.

If you are happy to consent to our use of your sensitive information, you will also be able to withdraw your consent at any time. However, as this will prevent us from providing your holiday, we will be required to treat any withdrawal of consent as a cancellation of your booking and the cancellation charges in the Booking Terms and Conditions for your booking will become payable.

IV. THE LEGAL GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING GUEST PERSONAL DATA

In most instances, we process your personal data under the legitimate interests of providing you products and services. In other instances, we obtain your consent to process your personal data where we are required to do so by applicable law – for example, where we want to use your contact details for marketing purposes or where the personal data we are collecting from you is sensitive personal data and we are not lawfully permitted to process your personal data on any other legal grounds. Where we rely on your consent for processing your personal data, you may withdraw your consent at any time, by contacting us at 

. Please note, however, that withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on the consent you gave prior to withdrawal.

Where we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will log your objection to and stop such processing of your data, and we will not contact you again if requested. You may object to such direct marketing by clicking the unsubscribe link in each such direct marketing message or contacting us at 

While we always want you to be aware of how we are using your personal information, this does not necessarily mean in every instance that we are required to ask for your consent before we can use it. There may be instances where we process your personal data for our legitimate interests (furthering our business relationship with you) or on the basis of other lawful grounds (i.e., because we have established a relationship with you and need to process your personal data in order to provide you with the information and/or services you have requested), without having obtained your consent. We do not seek your consent in such cases largely so that we can provide you with services in an efficient way (or where in some cases it might not be possible for us to seek your consent because we must process personal data, for example, for the detection of fraud). Before processing your personal data, we will consider your rights and freedoms and will only commence such processing where we do not think your rights will be infringed.

Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, only a limited number of individuals within A&K Travel’s legal, finance, IT, accounting and customer care departments, as well as certain managers (i.e., only persons with assigned responsibility or managerial responsibility for a guest or groups of guests) will receive access to Guest Personal Data when necessary in connection with their job responsibilities.

If you provide A&K Travel with personal data about members of your family and/or other dependents (e.g., for emergency contact or benefits administration purposes), it is your responsibility to inform them of their rights relating to the processing of their personal data for these purposes. You are also responsible for obtaining the explicit consent of these individuals (unless you are authorized to provide such consent on their behalf) to the processing (including disclosure and transfer) of that personal data for the purposes set out in this Policy.
