Students will also visit the Museo Nazionale in Naples which contains the treasures from Pompeii and Herculaneum. Site visits will include the classical ruins on the island of Capri, the ancient Roman harbor at Pozzuoli, the ancient cisterns of the Piscina Mirabilis, and the best preserved Greek ruins in the world at Paestum.

Note that there may be some variance in the itineraries due to unforeseen circumstances.

This tour will concentrate on the history and art of historical sites in Campania and Rome. Students will experience firsthand Italian culture, food, and language.

Rather than being isolated on tour busses, the students will access the sites and museums for the most part by walking or by public transportation.

Hotel accommodations are clean and orderly, and in the most desirable locations. All hotel rooms have bathrooms in the room.
