Your adventure begins at the foot of Mount Vesuvius with a fascinating visit to the buried city of Pompeii.

Hike on Capri, which has enchanted travellers since Roman times with its natural beauty. Back on the boat between walks, savour the delicious local cuisine and relax on the sunny upper deck.

On 3 of the nights the gulet will be docked in the port. On the other 4 nights the gulet will be anchored in roadstead (an enclosed area outside the harbour offering shelter from the winds and currents). In the unlikely event of unfavourable sea conditions, the gulet will return to port where passengers will be asked to pay the relevant price to stay in the port. The amount can vary from port to port, between EUR20-50, and is to be divided amongst passengers & paid locally. High season supplement applies for 6 Jul departure.
