Tour details

PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENT
This tour is organized with a minimum participation requirement of 30 people.  If sufficient participation is not achieved, the final cancellation notification date is 20 days before the tour start date. A tour canceled due to insufficient participation will be notified to you through our agency.

VISA

Ordinary Passport                      ✅                Visa required
Green Passport                          ❌              Visa not required
Service Passport                    ❌                Visa not required   

Your passport must be valid for 6 months from the end date of the trip and must not be older than 10 years.

For destinations requiring a visa, the visa application must be submitted with the documents specified in the “Documents Required for Visa” list that your agency will provide to you. To avoid problems with customs police at the border of the country to be visited due to torn, worn, wet and/or otherwise damaged passports, such passports must be renewed, and if the country applies a visa requirement to citizens of the Republic of Türkiye, the relevant visa must be in the new passport. Otherwise, responsibility belongs to the passenger. Since guests under the age of 18 traveling alone or accompanied by only one parent may be asked by police officers at country entry and exit points to present a document showing the joint consent of both parents, we recommend that our guests under the age of 18 and their parents pay particular attention to this matter.

*Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for a destination/passport where a visa is required) does not mean that entry into the country is guaranteed. Passport control officers have the authority to refuse you entry into the country. Our agency is not responsible for this situation; responsibility belongs to the passenger.

*As of April 10, 2026, under the European Entry/Exit System (EES), which entered into force in European Union countries, passport control procedures at border crossings are carried out by collecting biometric data (fingerprints and facial recognition).

Due to this application, situations such as congestion at airports and border gates, long waiting times, system delays, or the inability to read biometric data may occur.

These procedures are entirely under the control of the relevant country’s border security units, and our agency has no authority to intervene. Therefore, our agency cannot be held responsible for delays, waiting times, or any resulting disruptions to the itinerary.

It is strongly recommended that our guests ensure their passports are physically suitable, that there are no conditions that could prevent biometric data from being collected (cuts, wounds, excessive cream, etc.), and that they allow sufficient time for border procedures. “This application is an international security procedure, and all guests purchasing the tour are deemed to have accepted this process.”

CURRENCY
The currency used in European countries is the Euro. It is recommended that you carry small amounts of Euros with you.

TIME ZONE
Italy is 2 hours behind Türkiye during the winter time zone. For example, when it is 18:30 in Türkiye, it is 16:30 in Italy.

FOOD CULTURE
Italian cuisine; with fresh and natural ingredients taking center stage, Italian cuisine is among the most popular cuisines in the world, featuring pasta, pizza, olive oil, cheese, and seafood. Pizza, Risotto, Lasagna, Ravioli, Gnocchi, Tiramisu, and Gelato are the main delicacies that have become symbols of Italy.

ELECTRICAL OUTLETS
The electrical outlets used in Italy are generally compatible with those in Türkiye. However, since different types of outlets may be encountered in some older facilities, it is recommended that you bring a plug converter (adapter) so that you can use your electronic devices without problems.

SHOPPING
You will also have the opportunity to shop comfortably during our visit to Castel Romano Designer Outlet, one of the largest shopping centers in Rome and the region, as well as at shopping centers located in city centers. There are also opportunities to shop at small stalls selling souvenirs.

Tour Program
Izmir – Rome
At noon, we meet you, our esteemed guests, at the International Terminal of İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport. After completing our baggage, passport, and check-in procedures, we take our seats on the SunExpress flight to Rome, the capital of Italy and the cradle of history. Following a pleasant flight, upon our arrival in the capital, Rome, we board our waiting vehicle and enjoy an orientation tour of the region accompanied by our guide’s explanations. After free time for dinner, we check in to our hotel. Overnight at our hotel in Rome.
Rome – Pompeii – Naples
After breakfast at our hotel, we set out for the ancient city of Pompeii. As we travel south through Italy, enjoying beautiful scenery along the way and gradually leaving the hustle and bustle of the city behind, we reach the ancient city after a pleasant journey where we can relax and unwind, and begin our tour. We visit this ancient city, which was buried and destroyed under volcanic ash and cinders following the two-day eruption of Mount Vesuvius on August 24, 79 AD, accidentally rediscovered in 1599, and largely unearthed through subsequent excavations. It is also included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. In addition to structures such as the Odeon, the Grand Theatre, the Lupanare (brothel), and the Forum, we see the city’s main avenues, its advanced water-delivery systems, and the petrified human figures that remained buried under lava for centuries, bearing witness to the city’s sophistication. We have free time for lunch at a local restaurant near the ancient city, after which we head to the city center for our tour of Naples. During our tour of this most characteristic city of southern Italy, we see some of its most important landmarks, including Castel Nuovo (New Castle), the San Carlo Theatre, the Galleria Umberto, the Royal Palace of Naples, the Basilica of San Francesco, and Piazza del Plebiscito. We conclude the tour and have free time for shopping and dinner. After meeting again, we settle into our hotel.
Naples – Sorrento – Positano – Amalfi – Caserta
On this beautiful morning when we wake up in Naples, reflecting the spirit of southern Italy with its historic streets, lively atmosphere, and world-famous cuisine in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, we have breakfast at our hotel and set off toward the town of Sorrento, located along the magnificent shores of southern Italy amid olive groves, citrus orchards, and colorful flowers, to visit the towns of Amalfi and Positano. Upon our arrival, after exploring this beautiful town, we take our places in the private local vehicles that will take us around the Positano and Amalfi Coasts and begin our tour. The history of Positano dates back to ancient Roman times. However, the town took its present form during the Middle Ages and began attracting tourists in the 20th century. In the 1950s, the town drew the attention of writers, artists, and filmmakers, gradually gaining popularity and eventually becoming renowned as a luxury holiday destination. Located in the heart of the village, the 12th-century Church of Santa Maria Assunta, the village’s most luxurious hotel, Le Sirenuse—which has hosted numerous celebrities and where we can capture wonderful views from its restaurant and terrace—and the narrow streets of Positano are among the highlights. After these beautiful experiences, you can wander through the narrow streets of Positano, passing between colorful houses and walls adorned with flowers. You can also visit shops selling handmade jewelry, clothing, and works of art created by local artisans. At the end of this remarkable experience, we follow winding roads accompanied by breathtaking views and arrive at another heavenly corner: the town that gives its name to the Amalfi Coast. Built on steep cliffs, this historic town played an important role as a great maritime republic during the Middle Ages and is now included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. A powerful naval force between the 9th and 11th centuries as the Republic of Amalfi, the town held an important place in Mediterranean trade alongside other Italian maritime cities such as Venice, Pisa, and Genoa. However, the great tsunami that occurred in 1343, followed by natural disasters, caused Amalfi to lose its power. Over the years, it has survived to the present day thanks to its wonderful location, magnificent views, and stunning coastline. Today, Amalfi is regarded as one of Italy’s most beautiful coastal towns. The Arsenale della Repubblica (the Old Arsenal Museum), Amalfi Harbor, and Amalfi Cathedral (Duomo di Amalfi), which houses the monastery of the town’s patron saint, Saint Andrew, are among the places we will have the opportunity to see. After spending free time in this beautiful town, where we can take wonderful and unforgettable photographs, we return first to Sorrento in our private vehicles, which have taken us around Positano and Amalfi, and then continue by the bus waiting for us to our hotel in Caserta.
Royal Palace and Park of Caserta – Vatican City – Rome
After breakfast at the hotel, we set off to visit the Royal Palace and Park of Caserta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known as the Versailles of Italy. Built by the Bourbon Dynasty in the 18th century, the Royal Palace of Caserta is one of Europe’s largest royal palaces, with 1,200 rooms, magnificent marble staircases, splendid halls, and gardens stretching for kilometers. After visiting Caserta and listening to our guide’s explanations, we take our seats in the vehicle waiting for us and depart for the Vatican, one of the world’s smallest independent states, covering an area of 44 hectares. At the spiritual center of the Catholic faith, we listen to our guide’s explanations and, for those who wish, visit St. Peter’s Basilica. Following our visit to the Vatican, we head to the Colosseum, one of the iconic landmarks of Rome, one of the world’s oldest cities. In addition to gladiatorial combats, the Colosseum once hosted numerous public spectacles, mock naval battles, animal hunts, executions, reenactments of famous battles, and dramas based on classical mythology. After visiting this most famous arena of antiquity, we continue along the Roman Palace route and arrive at Palazzo di Venezia. Following a short photo stop, we proceed to the Pantheon, another of the city’s iconic landmarks. Originally built in Ancient Rome as a temple dedicated to all the gods and used as a church from the 7th century onward, the Pantheon houses the tombs of important figures in Italian history, including Victor Emmanuel II. Our tour continues with a visit to Piazza Navona, known for the remains of the ancient Stadium of Domitian and the Fountain of the Four Rivers (Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi) in its center. We then proceed to the Trevi Fountain, one of the world’s most famous fountains, also known as the Fountain of Love. After a lunch break here, we meet again and walk toward the Spanish Steps, which have stood since the 17th century and take their name from the Spanish Embassy. We have free time in the area, home to famous brand stores and cafés. At the end of our Rome tour, we check in to our hotel.
Rome – Castel Romano – Izmir
After having breakfast at our hotel, we depart for Castel Romano Designer Outlet, located in the Castel Romano area, where we can explore outlet stores offering discounted products from world-famous brands, as well as enjoy dining and shopping. At the end of our free time here, we transfer to Rome Airport for our return flight to İzmir. After completing our baggage, passport, and check-in procedures, we take our SunExpress flight to İzmir. Upon arrival at İzmir Adnan Menderes Airport, we say goodbye, looking forward to meeting again on another tour program.
