Out of the beaten track Pompeii and Capri

Pompeii: the basilica inside the Forum Since decades Pompeii and Capri have been preferred destinations for descerning travellers visiting Italy. We have been exploring them with the aim to discover new and unknown attractions.

Pompeii is one of the biggest and most interesting archeological sites in the world. Visiting Pompeii is an amazing opportunity to walk through a city of the Roman Empire and  discover how life was organized in that period. Today, we offer to our customers the unique possibility to combine the classical tour of Pompeii with the exclusive visits to two Roman domus (houses) which most travellers miss because very often even local guides are not aware of it.

The first domus is the one of the House of the Chaste Lovers , named after a painting representing the innocent kiss of two lovers. The guided visit allows visitors to assist live to the work of the archeologists busy in making new discoveries inside the house itself. It is a unique chance to share the magic of discovery together with experts.

The second visit is to the House of Iulius Polibius which has been perfectly restored and equipped with multimedia facilities aiming to recreate a “living” house moments before the volcano eruption. 3D images of Iulius Polibius (the owner of the house) and his daughter will explain visitors what has happened to them at the time of the catastrophe. Both visits have a very high educational value as well as, in the case of the House of Iulius Polibius, a strong emotional impact related to the feeling of involvement in the sad destiny of that Roman family.

Capri Marina Grande The island of Capri has been one of the preferred holiday destination of the most refined international visitors for decades attracted by its beauties, perfumes and relaxed atmosphere. Nowadays, a walk through the Piazzetta and the neighbouring alleys of Marina Grande is an amazing opportunity to admire the beautiful shop windows of the most famous fashion boutique. Walking up and down the scenic Via Krupp connecting Marina Grande to Marina Piccola is a unique experience due to the breathtaking view of the sea and the island’s cliffs.

The island offers also opportunities to have a more relaxed experience by travelling in the inner part of the island to Anacapri . This is the second biggest village of the island where the Grotta Azzurra and the Lighthouse are located. Anacapri is also home of a very special place: Villa San Michele . This was in ancient timStunning view of Capri e an imperial roman villa with a stunning view of Capri, the Sorrento Peninsula and the Bay of Naples. At the end of the 19th century the villa was renovated and enriched by the Swedish cosmopolitan humanist Axel Munthe. The visit to Villa San Michele and its garden is one of the most amazing, relaxing experiences of closeness to the sun, the wind and the sound of the sea one may have in life.

In order to make your travelling experience unforgettable, we suggest to combine the stay in Capri with the reading of the novel “The Story of San Michele” where Axel Munthe describes the genesis of the villa (interestingly and surprisingly the book was one of the most read bestsellers of the 20th century).
