You’ll have 3 nights on the Isle of Capri, from where you’ll have a private boat tour around the island, have the opportunity to visit the neighboring island of Ischia, or hike the famous walking paths of Capri. See what the day visitors miss on Capri at night.

The next 4 nights you will be based in Positano, the heart and soul of the Amalfi Coast. You’ll get to visit small villages accessible only by sea or foot, visit parts of Pompeii that are not open to the public, explore Sorrento, Amalfi, and the Pearl of the Amalfi Coast, Ravello, which has attracted artists, musicians and literary types for decades.

See the breathtaking beauty of the Amalfi Coast
with Dream Italia this September.

The area is well known for it’s handcrafted ceramics, with a center for ceramics making located in Vietri sul Mare.

There are many styles to choose from, and various objects made with the delightful, colorful paintings of the local artisans, including espresso sets and crockery to outdoor tables brilliantly painted in the style of the Amalfi Coast. You can find individual tiles, or a complete composite of hand-painted tiles depicting beautiful scenes of the area.

One of the joys of visiting the Amalfi Coast is browsing through the many shops, each with distinctive pottery, and should you decide to bring some home, shipping is the best method to avoid breakage. The larger shops are quite well practiced in packing and shipping the delicate wares.
