2008 Itinerary

Day 1: Buon Giorno Italia
Tauck's tour to Rome, the Amalfi Coast and the Island of Capri departs at 9:30 AM from Rome’s Leonardo da Vinci Airport in Fiumicino. Travel south through the Campania countryside to Naples and board a ferry to the Isle of Capri. Enjoy the company of your fellow travelers at this evening’s welcome cocktail reception and dinner.
Meals: Lunch, dinner
Lodging: Grand Hotel Quisisana, Isle of Capri, Italy

Day 2: Ah, the captivating Isle of Capri
Today's Isle of Capri tour is by chauffer-driven convertible cars – you'll truly feel like a jetsetter as you explore the island’s history and natural beauty. Visit Villa San Michele, built in the late 19th century atop Roman palace ruins, in the town of Anacapri. Attend a lecture on contemporary Italian society, given by a noted professor, at a private villa overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, followed by free time to enjoy the Isle of Capri as you please.
Meals: Breakfast, dinner
Lodging: Grand Hotel Quisisana, Isle of Capri, Italy

Day 3: Goodbye Isle of Capri… hello amazing Amalfi Coast
Bid farewell to the Isle of Capri as you begin your exploration of Italy’s fabled Amalfi Coast. Take in the glorious views of towering cliffs crowned with brightly colored houses perched high above the azure seas. A stop in historic Amalfi precedes a visit to the splendid Villa Rufolo in Ravello. You'll get a true taste of Southern Italy cuisine when you have lunch at a Ravello restaurant – and you may even have your cheeks pinched by the owner! Then, it’s off to your hotel in picturesque Positano for a two-night stay.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
Lodging: Le Agavi Hotel a Positano, Italy

Day 4: Pondering poignant Pompeii
Destroyed by the massive eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79, Pompeii lay hidden for 1,600 years before it was accidentally rediscovered in 1748. An in-depth guided visit to the extensive excavations reveals much about the doomed city and the daily lives of those who lived there so long ago. For example, at Villa dei Misteri, housing one of the world’s oldest paintings, it almost seems as if the owners have just stepped out for a brief time... During the city’s heyday, the Teatro Grande could seat 5,000 entertainment seekers. The remainder of the day is spent back in Positano.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch
Lodging: Le Agavi Hotel a Positano, Italy

Day 5: Neopolitan delights
Depart the Amalfi Coast and journey on to the city of Naples. A sightseeing tour shows you Teatro San Carlo, Italy’s oldest opera house, and Castel Nuovo; view landmark sights such as Posillipo, Piazza del Plebiscito, and the district of Santa Lucia. A guided visit at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale showcases treasured artifacts of Pompeii and Herculaneum. This afternoon, the Isle of Capri and the Amalfi Coast become memories as you travel first class on the high-speed TAV train to Rome for a three-night stay. Your exclusive hotel is set in a 17th-century palazzo in the center of Rome.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch
Lodging: Hotel d'Inghilterra, Rome, Italy

Day 6: Inside Vatican City, the world’s smallest country
Explore the rich treasures of Vatican City today on a Tauck Exclusive - a private, after-hours visit to the Vatican Museums. You'll be amazed at what you see when the crowds go home! Your guided tour includes the Candelabra Gallery, the Map Gallery, and the Gallery of the Tapestries. You'll truly have a transformational experience when you view Michelangelo’s famous frescoes in the Sistine Chapel - and be sure to gaze downward at the floor - it's not often seen by the crowds earlier in the day! Stay flexible, though – sightseeing in Rome on days 6 and 7 may be in a slightly different order than described here due to local holidays, etc.
Meals: Breakfast
Lodging: Hotel d'Inghilterra, Rome, Italy

Day 7: When in Rome...
On a guided sightseeing visit through ancient and modern Rome, see Circus Maximus, the 4th-century BC stadium where chariot races were held, and view the ancient ruins – temples, monuments, and Senate House – of the Roman Forum from above. Behold Trajan’s Forum and the Imperial Palaces, and visit San Pietro in Vincoli. Tour the Colosseum, opened in AD 80 for gladiator battles.

If you are traveling from an airport outside the jurisdiction of the U.S, you will need to determine what travel documentation and identification is required for that particular airport.

Due to heightened security regulations, certain items such as a metal nail file, pocket knife, cigarette lighter, or tweezers, and some liquid, gel, or aerosol items may not be permitted in your carry-on luggage. Please call your airline prior to departure to obtain current information on non-permissible carry-on items and recommended airport check-in times. You may also wish to visit the Transportation Security Administration website at www.tsa.gov.

Membership will be granted to all persons. Tauck reserves the right to terminate the tour of any person who is abusive of others or whose behavior disrupts the tour.

Photography on Tour – Occasionally, we will use photographs taken by fellow guests or your Tauck Director on your tour for promotional purposes. If you prefer that your photo not be used in any marketing activities, please notify your Tauck Director at the start of your tour.

Preparing To Go

Air Conditioning – All the hotels and motor coaches used on this tour are air-conditioned for your comfort. European air conditioning in hotels should be considered as a climate-control system; most have three settings for the fan, plus a "cool" setting. Very few of the European systems actually have a temperature setting. In general, the amount of cool air that is produced from a European air-conditioning system may be less than what you may have in your own home.

ATM and Credit Cards - We recommend that you contact your bank in advance of departing for this tour to determine whether you will be able to use your ATM and credit cards while traveling. When contacting your bank, notify them of your travel dates so that they will anticipate charges being made outside of your hometown and do not suspend your cards for what may appear to them to be “suspicious” charges. We also recommend that you make a photocopy of the front and back sides of your ATM and credit cards to leave behind with someone at home who will assist you in the event your cards are misplaced, lost or stolen.

Clothing and Packing – The weather in Italy is temperate and unpredictable. We suggest that you dress for comfort and convenience with a wardrobe that is flexible and allows for layering. Casual, cotton clothing is recommended. A light sweater or jacket will provide warmth on a chilly early morning walk or a late night stroll; however, generally you will only need to dress for warm and delightful weather – and the occasional shower.

In Europe, especially in finer restaurants, it is generally customary to dress somewhat formally. Slacks or a dress for women and a jacket for men are acceptable dining attire. It is advisable to avoid wearing jeans, sneakers or shorts for dinner. You may also wish to dress up a bit for the welcome reception and the farewell dinner, but by all means be comfortable.

Most catholic churches in Italy require that your knees and shoulders be covered when you enter, even during the hot days of summer. This is particularly important when you visit St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, where shorts, tank tops and other off-the-shoulder tops are not allowed.

You will find a hair dryer located in your hotel guest room. By law in Italy, irons and ironing boards are not made available to guests at hotels. Valet laundry and dry cleaning services are also available for a fee.

We recommend that you pack an adequate supply of your prescription medication in its original container to last through your entire journey, together with a copy of your doctor’s prescription (or a letter from your health-care provider on office stationery explaining that the medication has been prescribed for you), a list of the generic names of your medication, your travel documents and a change of clothing in your carry-on bag to avoid any inconvenience in the event that your flight or luggage is delayed.

Following is a list of recommended items to pack for your trip to Italy:

• Sports jacket for men
• Casually-elegant outfits for women
• Short and long sleeve shirts
• Shorts, slacks and jeans
• Tee shirts
• Socks
• Light sweater
• Light-weight jacket
• Comfortable yet sturdy walking shoes that have already been broken-in
• Raincoat and rain hat
• Collapsible umbrella
• Swimwear
• Sunglasses and sunscreen
• Insect repellent
• Wash cloth – not all European hotels provide washcloths, so you may want to bring one along if you prefer them; a package of reusable cloth wipes is an excellent alternative
• Camera, lenses, batteries, memory cards and plenty of film
• Copies of your travel documents that should be secured in the safe in your hotel room while traveling
  

Elevation - The maximum elevation on this tour is approximately 1,300 ft (396 m).

Health – This journey is paced to accommodate all our guests, but is, nonetheless, an active and extensive tour. You should be in good health and able to walk reasonable distances over uneven terrain, as some of the most memorable sightseeing can only be accomplished on foot. Italy is home to innumerable historic buildings and sites, some dating from antiquity. Therefore, roads, walkways and architecture will present difficulties for some guests with physical limitations. You will encounter cobblestone streets, narrow passageways, and some steep and winding staircases. For the most part, however, the amount of walking you do at the various sites and towns is at your discretion.

We regret that we cannot provide you with individual assistance for walking, dining or other personal needs. If you need such assistance, you must be accompanied by an able companion who will help you.

Please check with your health insurance provider to determine whether you are covered while traveling. If you will not be covered under your current policy, we strongly suggest that you arrange for adequate coverage while on tour.

If you have a medical condition which might limit your participation in activities, please consult your physician for pre-departure health advice and notify Tauck as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. We will advise your Tauck Director accordingly.

If you are a U.S. citizen, no vaccinations are currently required for travel to Italy. For complete vaccination and inoculation information, contact your physician, the public health service in your area, or the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. The Travelers' Health Section of the CDC operates a 24-hour, prerecorded "Travelers' Health Hotline" at 877-394-8747 (toll-free in the U.S.). You may also log on on to the CDC Internet website at www.cdc.gov.

If you are a citizen of another country, please contact an embassy or consulate of Italy to determine what vaccinations may be required for your travel.

Luggage Restrictions:

Checked Luggage – General
While it is common that airlines allow passengers to check more than one piece of luggage per person, space constraints during your Tauck journey make it difficult to accommodate extra luggage. We ask that you limit your checked luggage to one average size suitcase per person.

In addition, airlines have adopted more strict policies in enforcing size and weight limits. Luggage exceeding maximum restrictions may require expensive overage fees, frustrating and hurried re-packing at the ticket counter, or even risk being left behind.

Many carriers require checked luggage not exceed a weight of 50 lbs (22.7 kg) per piece. Airlines revise luggage policies frequently and often without notice; therefore, Tauck cannot be held liable to the weight limit listed above. We urge you to check with your airline before traveling to determine current weight and size restrictions. It is also important to note that restrictions for luggage size and weight may vary with the same airline based on the class of service you select. First and Business Class ticket holders may have different restrictions than Coach Class travelers.

Tauck World Discovery cannot be held liable for additional fees or inconveniences imposed by the airline due to luggage size, piece or weight policies.

Please be sure to attach your Tauck luggage tag to your suitcase before leaving home.

Carry-on Luggage - General
Although oversize bags and wheeled, carry-on luggage are popular for airline travel, they are often not convenient or appropriate for motor coach travel or for many on-tour flights. Most modern sightseeing motor coaches offer limited space for numerous or larger items. Space under seats or in the overhead rack is typically small, and designed to accommodate items like coats, hats, purses, and small camera bags, etc.

For your day-to-day travel while on tour, we recommend that you limit your hand luggage to a small, soft-sided carry-on piece, and only those items you need handy during the day such as purses, make-up, medications, cameras, film, etc. Items too large to fit under the motor coach seat or in the overhead rack must be stored in the luggage bays beneath the motor coach, and may not be accessible during daytime travel.

Travel Document Requirements – If you are a U.S. citizen, you will need a valid passport to enter Italy; however, you do not need a visa for the short duration of this tour. Please note that longer stays abroad for any purpose may require additional travel documentation.

If you are a citizen of another country, you should contact an embassy or consulate of Italy to determine what travel documentation is required.

We strongly recommend that your passport be valid for six months beyond the completion of your tour. Also, we recommend that you make at least two photocopies of all the travel documents that you bring with you. Include copies of the photo page of your passport that contains the date of issuance, date of expiration and your citizenship, as well as the front and back sides of your driver’s license. Secure one set of copies in the safe in your room while traveling and leave one set behind with someone at home who will assist you in the event your documents are misplaced, lost or stolen.

Travel with Children

Age Recommendations – Children 5 years of age or older at the time of travel are welcome on this Tauck journey. Based upon our experience with family travelers, for each itinerary we have a minimum recommended age to encourage comfort and enjoyment for all of our guests. For the optional visit to the Catacombs of St. Peter’s Basilica, only those who are 15 years of age or older are permitted entry. All children must be accompanied on activities by a parent or guardian. At least one guest in the traveling party must be 21 years of age or older in order to make a reservation.

Babysitting – Tauck journeys are designed for adults and children to share the wonder of discovery together. However, our guests have occasionally inquired about babysitting services. If you are interested, your Tauck Director will put you in contact with the appropriate hotel staff with whom you may make babysitting arrangements, to ensure your precise needs are met. There is usually an additional fee for these services. Many hotels do offer babysitting services that may be arranged on site; however, babysitting services are not guaranteed at all of our hotels. Please note that our Tauck Directors are not responsible for providing babysitting services.

Safety and Welfare Responsibility – We welcome the participation of child travelers on our exciting excursions. If you are traveling with a child on a Tauck journey, you have the sole responsibility for ensuring that that the child with whom you are traveling follows all rules of safety throughout the tour. By traveling with Tauck, you release Tauck, Inc. and our partners of all liability for any risks and/or injuries to the child with whom you are traveling.

Special Travel Documentation for Children

Authorization for Travel
If you travel into or out of the U.S. with children under the age of 18, you should be aware of the following: because of increasing incidents of child abductions in disputed custody cases and because children are at risk as possible victims of child pornography, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) strongly recommends that unless the child is accompanied by both parents, you should have a note from the child's other parent (or, in the case of a child traveling with grandparents, uncles or aunts, sisters or brothers, or friends, a note signed by both parents) stating that the parent(s) not traveling acknowledge that the parent(s), family members, etc. who are traveling into or out of the U.S. with the child have permission to do so.

CBP also suggests that this note be notarized. While CBP may not ask to see this documentation, if they do ask, and you do not have it, you may be detained until the circumstances of the child traveling without both parents can be fully assessed.

If there is no second parent with legal claims to the child (deceased, sole custody, etc.) any other relevant paperwork, such as a court decision, birth certificate naming only one parent, death certificate, etc., would be useful.

All children who are U.S. citizens should also have a certified copy of their birth certificate or baptism record for ID. Children over the age of 14 are also required to have a photo ID.

Many other countries also share this concern for children who travel without both parents. To ensure smooth travel, Tauck requires all guests to comply with the travel regulations of each country visited. This information is available from each country’s consulate.

Authorization for Emergency Medical Treatment
In the unlikely event of a medical emergency, a medical facility will require permission from the child’s parents to provide treatment. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you bring along a letter from both parents authorizing emergency medical treatment for their child.

Tauck is not responsible for the disruption of travel caused by improper documentation for any travelers, including children traveling without both parents. While there is no definitive format or standard for these letters, click here to view a sample letter for guardians or one parent traveling with a child.

Destination Information

Cell Phones - We understand and appreciate the value of instant communication when we travel; it keeps us in touch with friends and family, and it's a reassurance in the event of an emergency. However, the use of cell phones can be disruptive to a tour and to other guests who are enjoying their vacation. As a courtesy to others, we ask that you refrain from using your cell phone during motor coach travel, during group functions, when sightseeing and when the Tauck Director is addressing the group as a whole. There are usually many opportunities to make or receive calls at times when it does not affect others.

Please contact your cell phone carrier to determine whether your service extends to Italy.

Currency and Exchange Rates - The official currency in Italy is the Euro.

In Italy, travelers’ checks are becoming increasingly unpopular. Most reputable establishments will accept major credit cards. The Automatic Teller Machines (ATM's) in Italy are known as Bancomats, and they are widespread. Using a credit card, or even better, a debit card or your local bank ATM card, is very easy. If you are unsure about the compatibility or the banking systems, contact the bank or institution that issued your card. The Bancomat will dispense Euro. Many banks are now charging large fees of 2.5% to 4% for cash advances on credit cards which negates any advantage of using the Bancomat in the first place. We advise that you use your regular ATM card and simply withdraw money from your account just as you would do at your local bank.

To obtain up-to-date currency exchange rates, you may want to check your local newspaper or log on to the Internet website www.oanda.com.

Customs and Tax-Free Shopping – If you are a U.S resident who will be returning to the U.S. at the end of the tour, current regulations permit bringing back $800 worth of items duty-free, as long as you physically bring them with you. There are limits to the amount of alcohol that can be a part of this exemption. Certain restrictions apply to unaccompanied goods mailed from abroad to the United States. Please call your local customs office or consult the government's customs regulations as contained in their publication entitled Know Before You Go.

If you are a resident of another country, you should refer to yourt own country’s rules and regulations regarding customs and duty-free shopping to ensure compliance.

Currently, Italy levies a 20% Value Added Tax (VAT) on most consumer goods and services. (The tax may be higher on luxury items and lower on basic goods.) As a rule, if you are not a resident of the country in which the purchase is made (or of the country’s intergovernmental economic community, e.g., the European Union), you may be entitled to a VAT refund and should inquire about the refund policy where you shop.

Electrical Current – The electrical current in Italy is 230 V, 50 Hz, AC. If your electrical devices do not conform to this standard, you will need to bring the appropriate converters and adapters.

Internet Access – All the hotels on this itinerary offer internet access, as indicated below:

Grand Hotel Quisisana – Wireless internet access in the lobby
Hotel Le Agavi – Internet access in the lobby
Hotel d’Inghilterra – Dial-up internet access in rooms

Time Zones – Italy is 1 hour ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (or Greenwich Mean Time). From late March through October, Italy switches to Daylight Savings Time and is 2 hours ahead. To determine current time in major cities around the world, we suggest you log on to the Internet website www.timeanddate.com.

Weather - The weather in Italy is temperate and unpredictable. Generally, April through June average high temperatures range from 64 to 79°F (18 to 26°C), July through September, 78 to 85°F (26 to 29°C), though temperatures are frequently over 90°F (32°C) in summer, and October through December, 56 to 71°F (13 to 22°C). Rain falls seasonally in Rome, where summers are dryer than winters. Capri and the Amalfi Coast experience more rain though summers also tend to be drier.
