Castelli Romani (pass by)

Your voyage begins with a drive through lush farmlands and rolling hills of the Castelli Romani region, just south of Rome.Castelli Romani literally means "Roman Castles," which probably evokes images of stone palaces, fairy tale monarchs, and towers where Rapunzel could let down her hair. In this case, however, the "Castelli Romani" refers to a collection of quaint hilltop villages around Lake Albano and Lake Nemi. This area has always been associated with great food and the simplicity of life. In ancient times, citizens of Rome would come to the Castelli Romani to escape the hustle and bustle and heat of Rome. Today the area is best known for Castel Gandolfo, the summer residence of the Pope, but the entire region is one of great natural beauty with many charming places to visit.

Abbazia Di Montecassino (pass by)

Founded by Saint Benedict in 529, Montecassino is one of Europe's oldest monasteries and the birthplace of the Benedictine order. Over the centuries the abbey has suffered numerous disasters, from being sacked by a variety of invaders to being destroyed by an earthquake, and it has been rebuilt numerous times. During WWII, Montecassino abbey was almost completely destroyed during the famous battle that bears its name. After the war, the abbey was carefully rebuilt and reconsecrated by Pope Paul VI in 1964.

Bay of Naples (pass by)

As you travel around the Bay of Naples, you will receive a welcome not only from the sparkling water of the wide, graceful gulf but also from the natural wonder that dominates the landscape to the east: Mount Vesuvius.To the south of the bay lies the Sorrentine peninsula with the town of Sorrento perched at the end, and then the stupendous Amalfi coast.

Vesuvius National Park (pass by)

Pompeii Archaeological Park

Pompeii is a place where time has stood still since 79 AD, when the cataclysmic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius rained tons of ash and lava down on the Roman city. The monumental disaster perfectly preserved the city, enabling modern-day visitors to get a unique look at Ancient Roman life.
