3 Nights in Rome

3 Nights in Rome

The capital of Italy is a vibrant, energetic and stylish city. While thoroughly modern in sensibility, Rome is also home to some of the world’s most important works of classic art and architecture. This city has been an epicenter for culture, politics and religion for more than 2,500 years. From the Spanish Steps to the Vatican, there are more than enough sights to keep even the most active tourists busy and even somewhere as popular as Rome you can find places just off the tourist trail and bustling with locals. But it’s also nice to slow down and enjoy Rome’s famous cafes and restaurants, which can be just as beguiling as the buildings. Lounge with an espresso on the Campo de Fiori and watch the changing light on the fountains and the facades. Visit the Vatican and explore some of the world’s most beautiful churches. Rome really comes alive at night, when restaurants and wine bars bring a renewed vitality to the city. You’ll also have opportunities for day trips to local vineyards, olive groves, and other places producing regional delicacies. No matter what your interests, or what kind of holiday you’re looking for, Rome will be an enjoyable destination.

Day 1

Day 1 - Arrival in Rome

After you land at Rome's Fiumicino airport you will be met in the arrivals hall by a driver holding a sign with your name on. The journey to your accommodation in the center of Rome should take around an hour.

Our representative will then meet with you to answer any questions you have and to get you settled for the rest of your trip.

Roman Holiday in Love

Suggestion to explore on your own

There are many ways to make your stay in Rome even more romantic. For a little light exercise along with your romance, head to the man-made lake in the Villa Borghese Gardens. For just a few euros you and your beloved can take to the water and circumnavigate the impressive Temple of Asclepius that sits on the island in the middle.

Enjoy a spa treatment themed after some Italian classic wines. Choose from the grand Brunello di Montalcino or a bubbly Prosecco experience, and as well as a tasting of the fruit of the vine itself that theme runs all the way through your two-hour treatment, from grape seed scrubs to scented bubbles. Let your local JayWay contact know when you'd like to schedule your visit and we'll make a reservation directly with the spa, located right in the heart of Rome, by the Pantheon.

Day 2

Day 2 - Your First Full Day in Rome

Rome by Golf Cart Private Tour

This tour is great for anyone - families traveling with kids, first-timers, people with limited mobility, or travelers on a tight schedule. During this 3-hour tour, you'll admire iconic landmarks, such as the Spanish Steps, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and Piazza Navona.

VIP Colosseum Underground and Arena Floor at Night Group Tour

Take a Twilight Tour

Please ask your travel advisor for the cost to add this to your package

We think the ideal introduction to Rome's historic (but not ancient) center is to take a small group late afternoon walking tour.

Over the course of two and a half hours your expert guide will show you the key sights of the historic center of Rome.

The Spanish Steps, Piazza Navona, the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain are all covered.

You can also take advantage of nighttime for a more intimate tour of the Colosseum, visiting areas not usually opened to the general public, without the usual daytime crowds.

Day 3

Day 3 - Your Second Full Day in Rome

Focus on Ancient Rome with a Group or Private Tour

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

Rome's origin story unfolds when you visit the Colosseum and the adjacent Roman Forum. Hear about life in ancient Rome and soak in the grandeur of these testaments to a lost civilisation. We can arrange for a private guide to explain how the Colosseum was built and what happened to it in the years since. Afterwards the tour proceeds to the Roman Forum, the center of political life of the city and ultimately the Empire, finding out the different purposes of the buildings whose columns and porticos still stand today. If you'd prefer the atmosphere of a group tour, we can instead arrange for spaces on a tour by a reputable group tour company.

Premium Colosseum, Roman Forum and Palatine Hill Group Tour

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

Colosseum and Roman Forum Private Tour

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

This private Colosseum tour with skip-the-line tickets is a must for anyone interested in learning about Ancient Rome in a fun and hassle-free way. Walk where the Roman senate walked, see where the gladiators fought, and stand where the citizens welcomed the Roman soldiers after successful military campaigns. Your first stop is the Colosseum, one of the largest structures of the ancient world. The Ancient Romans once gathered there to watch gladiator games, battles with wild beasts, and even sea battles. Discover how the Colosseum, a massive stone amphitheater that seated an estimated 60,000 spectators, was built in only eight years. Your guide will unlock fascinating stories of the design and construction, the political benefit, the fighters, and the eventual end of the games at the Colosseum. Continuing the tour at the Imperial Roman Forum, your guide will bring to life the mythology, the popular celebrations of the time, and the gods of ancient Rome, reflected in the star signs in contemporary astrology. Discover the Temple of the Vestal Virgins - six young women taken from aristocratic families to serve as virgin priests of Vesta. They worked in the temple for 30 years under different emperors and were regarded almost as goddesses in status. Their foremost duty was maintaining the sacred fire of Vesta, which represented the heart of Rome. Legend had it that as long as the sacred flame burned, Rome would endure and be victorious.

Activity Level : Light

Duration : 3 Hours

Rome and Catholicism

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

It's hard to miss the dome of St Peter's, and it's the first thing you see when arriving in Rome by plane. It really is an ever-present reference point on the city's skyline. Vatican City is the spiritual and administrative center of the Roman Catholic Church. Technically a separate state and surrounded by stone walls, the Vatican is a must-see. We offer a range of options to suit your specific preferences: private tours, small group tours, and even tours with experienced scholars who can offer unique insight into the area.

The Complete Vatican Group Tour with Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel

4 Nights in Positano

Of all the towns that constitute the Amalfi Coast, Positano is almost certainly the most photographed. A cascade of color rolling down steep hillsides towards the sea. The Amalfi Coast road snakes through the town, providing the main means of connectivity to the outside world. The only other option is by boat and there are regular ferries to the other Amalfi Coast towns and to Capri island in the Bay of Naples, so day-tripping is definitely a possibility. Positano's coarse-grain sand public beaches can fill up fast on sunny days but there are quieter stretches to be found and a water taxi ride will take you to somewhere more secluded. Positano is at one end of the Path of the Gods, a demanding hiking trail that will take you inland to the town of Agerola, but the journey is its own reward, with some killer views along the way.

Private Day Trip to Capri (from Positano)

Sail the Amalfi Coast to Capri on a Private Cruise

Please ask your travel advisor for the cost to add this to your package

The name Capri evokes images of natural beauty and the jet-set lifestyle. The island is very popular especially in summer, so we recommend a private boat tour with an expert local skipper to find and enjoy the most beautiful spots for a relaxing swim and a good glass of wine.

Activity Level : Moderate

Duration : 8 hours

Day 5

Day 5 - Your First Full Day in Positano

Amalfi Coast Private Day Trip from Positano

Amazing Amalfi

Included in your vacation package price.

The first thing you'll want to do on the Amalfi Coast is take some photos and there are some truly stunning vistas to be found. There are numerous ways to explore the coastline, by foot if you're up to hiking the arduous Sentiero degli Dei (the Path of the Gods), by sea kayak, by boat using the ferries that shuttle between the towns and villages on the coast, or by road, either using the local bus services, on a rented scooter, or for the utmost convenience, with a private driver which we can arrange for you, or even a private guide.

Activity Level : Moderate

Duration : 8 hours

Day 6

Day 6 - Your Second Full Day in Positano

Soak up the Capri Sun

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

There are several ferries a day to and from the island of Capri, taking around an hour, depending whether you're starting from Positano or Amalfi, making this an easy self-guided day trip. Once you arrive at Marina Grande you could hop in an open-top taxi or take the funicular to visit the town of Capri for some shopping. The quieter town of Anacapri is more suitable if you're looking for a laid-back kind of place. Another popular option is to take a boat to the island's most famous sight, the Blue Grotto.

One great way to enjoy both the island and the water is a boat trip from Sorrento on the Amalfi coast. This is available as a group tour or as a private tour.

Capri & Anacapri Group Tour

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

Don't miss the opportunity to see the best of the Italian Riviera. Meet your guide and group in Marina Piccola in Sorrento and depart for a pleasant boat ride to Capri. During the crossing, the breathtaking sight of the Sorrento Coast will unfold before your eyes. When you land in Capri you'll hop aboard a minibus for a guided tour of the island. You'll stop at Anacapri to visit the Villa St. Michele, built by the Swedish doctor and writer Axel Munthe on the remains of Roman ruins. The area offers a wonderful view of the island from its beautiful shady garden. Next you'll go from Anacapri to Capri by private minibus. After lunch you can visit the Garden of Augustus, which has a wonderful view of the famous “Faraglioni.” The main square here, Piazza Umberto I, has a pretty white church and several open-air cafes where you can sit and watch the world drift by. You'll have plenty of free time for shopping in the elegant and exclusive island boutiques before heading back to your accommodation.

Activity Level : Light

Duration : 9-10 hours

Private Excursion to Capri and Anacapri

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

On this tour you'll be exploring the wonders of Capri and Anacapri. You'll be driven to Sorrento port from where you will set out by boat. When you arrive at the port of Capri your guide will accompany you to a car for the drive to Anacapri. Then you'll have a walking tour of Anacapri with free time to visit Villa San Michele. After driving to the center of Capri, you'll have a one-hour guided walking tour, effectively going from one side of the island to the other, through its narrow streets and nooks and crannies. Following the walking tour you'll have free time for lunch and shopping. Then you'll head to the port for the trip back to your accommodation in Positano. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes, and don't forget your camera!

Activity Level : Moderate

Duration : 10 hours

Kayak and Swim in Secluded Coves

Suggestion to explore on your own

Kayaking is a great way to enjoy this beautiful area, and you can rent kayaks on Spiaggia Grande, Positano's main beach. Go on your own or join a guided tour to explore the beaches, caves and coves that make it unique. You can also stop to swim on an isolated beach, away from the crowd, to snorkel or dive. Excursions at sunset are particularly pleasant, and highly recommended.

Day 7

Day 7 - Your Third Full Day in Positano

Pompeii and Herculaneum

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., spewing lava and volcanic ash for days, devastating the Ancient Roman towns of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Pompeii certainly draws all the crowds but Herculaneum is well worth taking the time to see. The effects of the eruption were different in this smaller town populated mostly by the wealthy, rather than by the common-folk as Pompeii was, so you'll see different aspects of the history of the period and the way people lived by visiting both sites. The volcano itself can be seen from far away, and can be visited in combination with Pompeii on a group day trip. If you want to see all three sites, which is just about achievable, we suggest having a private driver for the day.

Pompeii & Herculaneum Group Tour from Amalfi

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

On this special tour you'll be seeing Pompeii and Herculaneum, two historic cities that were destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. You'll be picked up from your accommodation and taken to Pompeii, where you'll have a guided tour of the ruins. Next you'll head to Herculaneum, a more rural city. You'll have an expert guide the whole time so you'll get full insight into the history of the area. This really is a fascinating excursion for history buffs or anyone who wants to learn more about the history of Italy. At the end of the day you'll be driven back to your accommodation. You'll be doing a lot of walking, so please wear comfortable clothes and shoes.

Activity Level : Moderate

Duration : 8 hours

Pompeii Private Day Trip with Cooking Class and Wine Tasting on Mount Vesuvius

Suggested activities for an additional cost, depending on your choice

On this eight-hour excursion to Vesuvius and Pompeii, you're sure to enjoy one of the best days of your holiday in Italy. You'll set off in the morning when your driver picks you up at your accommodation. Your destination is the Sorrentino Vini winery on the slopes of Vesuvius. You'll get to explore this beautiful landscape, then enjoy a cooking class, lunch and wine tasting overlooking the bay, with the volcano at your back. After driving to Pompeii you'll have a two-hour guided tour that will make the past come to life.

Activity Level : Moderate

Duration : 8 hours

The Rome driver was masterful. Could not believe how he drove with such ease in tight spots. All drivers were informative and excellent. We felt we learned even more on this trip than a previous trip 20 years ago. The guides were excellent and would highly recommend each of them. JayWay is a great way to get a framework for your trip--nice hotels in excellent locations, just the right amount of tours for your preferences. Excellent people to work with in planning the trip and once on location--both from JayWay and the guides.
