Honeymoon in Italy Review: Rome Walking & Culture Tour, Pompeii Wine Tasting, Sorrento Limoncello, Cheese & Pizza Making

The honeymoon of our dreams!!

We cannot thank this travel company enough for planning the trip of our dreams. Our trip planners were such a pleasure to work with. They were extremely responsive and very engaging as we worked out the details of our trip with them.

They didn't leave out a single detail; it was the perfect balance of scheduled events and time to explore on our own.

The company arranged private tours for us which were wonderful!! My husband was very interested in the history of Rome so having a one on one guide was perfect for us!  Our guide was so knowledgeable.  For the first three days of our trip, we spent a few hours each morning with her, doing a walking food and culture tour, a tour of the Colosseum, and of the Vatican. We truly enjoyed the time we spent with, getting a true insight into the magnificence of Rome. She was amazing!!

Then we were off to Pompei !  Our very friendly driver picked us up from the train station in Naples and drove us to an amazing experience.  We had another great tour guide who was so funny and witty that we didn't want the tour to end. We were surprised by a delicious wine tasting and lunch at a winery, with gorgeous views of Mt Vesuvius. What an amazing experience this was, the wine was unlike any wine I had ever tasted, and the food was to die for!

The hotel they booked for us in Positano was beyond gorgeous!!! The views looked like a postcard, we literally couldn't believe our eyes!! Truly breathtaking! We had a phenomenal time in Positano, a lot of free time to explore and shop and eat and drink (and eat).

From Positano we were picked up by our driver, to see Amalfi and Ravello. He was great and thoughtful!  He stopped along the way several time at places he knew to take pictures and suggested a marvelous place for us to have a late lunch. The Chef/Owner let us come back for a tour of the kitchen, and even prepared a meal of his choosing for us!! We had an unforgettable time with them. My husband and I left there that day feeling like we made true friends and were so delighted.   

Then we were off to Sorrento !! We noticed on our itinerary that we had a limoncello, cheese, and pizza making experience. We had no idea what a treat we were in for! We were greeted by a hilariously funny tour guide who took us through lemon and olive groves, tasted some of the most delicious olive oils, and we learned how they made different cheeses and happily sampled them!! Then, we walked through the village to the family owned restaurant where we all made our own pizza. So fun!

Our last day was spent in beautiful Capri. We took an hour-long boat tour around the island which I highly recommend!  Although the blue grotto was closed for the day, we still explored, shopped, and had lunch overlooking the crystal blue water at a beautiful restaurant which was amazing.    

We can't thank this travel company enough for the whole experience. They truly made our honeymoon unforgettable!! We cannot wait to plan our next trip with them!!

Thank you,
