Choice Highlights
Trevi Fountain
Pantheon
Piazza Navona
Colosseum The Colosseum is one of the most recognizable structures of the Roman Empire. The structure was built in the first century AD as a place of celebration for Gladiator games and public spectacles. Today the structure has been preserved and is an open air museum that highlights the architectural expertise of the ancient Romans. Visitors can see the details of the recently cleaned facade made of Travertine marble and view the internal structure of this “Wonder of the World.”
Montecassino Montecassino is a rocky hill situated southeast of Rome, Italy, housing St. Benedict of Nursia’s first monastery in 529. The hilltop sanctuary was the site of the Battle of Montecassino in 1944, where the building was destroyed by Allied bombing and then rebuilt after the war. The site was one of the last remaining territorial abbeys within the Catholic Church, until 2014. Modern excavations have found wonderful treasures in Montecassino, including manuscripts codices that are now archived for safekeeping. (Codices is the plural of codex, and a codex is an ancient manuscript text in book form.) The site is also a burial ground for several historic religious figures.
Sorrento The north side of the Sorrento peninsula is the Sorrento Coast, named after the largest city and tourist center, Sorrento. The Sorrento Coast is home to panoramic views of shear cliffs, small rocky beaches and terraced gardens of olive and lemon trees. The town of Sorrento is a tourist’s delight, complete with excellent shopping, quaint cafes and elegant restaurants.

Amalfi Coast The rocky Sorrento Peninsula stretches into the Tyrrhenian Sea separating the Bay of Naples to the north from the Gulf of Salerno to the south. On the south of the peninsula is the famed Amalfi Coast. The Amalfi Coast features the 32-mile-long coastal drive that hugs the cliff as it passes through the picturesque fishing villages of Positano, Amalfi and Minori, among others. The coast is famed for its breathtaking views, local cuisine and drinks like limoncello.
Pompeii The Roman city of Pompeii is located in the southern region of Campania, near Naples. The city was covered by volcanic material in 79 AD and forgotten for centuries. When the city was excavated, archeologists found the city to be intact as it had been prior to the eruption. Today visitors walk on the original streets, complete with chariot ruts. The city was made up of a variety of different buildings including theaters, homes, shops, thermal baths and temples — all of which can be visited today. In addition, every-day objects and precious artifacts have been preserved along with original mosaic and fresco decorations.
