Day 8
Destination:
Sorrento
Breakfast: At the hotel. Morning: Spend a full day exploring Sorrento at leisure. Or, join our optional half-day tour to the infamous ruins of Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You’ll depart for the ruins in the morning, traveling along the scenic Sorrentine peninsula, taking in dramatic views of the countryside, cliffs, and the sea along the way. Totally buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79 and not rediscovered until the 17th century, Pompeii's antiquities offer you an unparalleled view of everyday Roman life. In the company of a local expert, walk in the footsteps of the Romans over ancient cobbles and pavement, spending a few hours at some of the most significant sites to learn how its people lived, built their homes, and conducted business. Lunch: Our optional tour includes a farm-fresh lunch at an agriturismo farmhouse in the countryside outside Pompeii. Otherwise, lunch is on your own in Sorrento—ask your Program Director for local restaurant recommendations. Afternoon: Your optional tour ends, and you return to Sorrento early this afternoon, where you’ll have the rest of the day to spend at leisure. Your Program Director can recommend free time activities. Dinner: On your own—ask your Program Director for local restaurant recommendations. Evening: You have the freedom to spend the rest of your evening as you wish—ask your Program Director for recommendations. |
