Sorrento & Ischia, Italy
From £2,499 per person

Visiting
7 nights Sorrento: 3 nights Ischia: 4 nights

Interest
Multi Centre

Combine a stay in sophisticated Sorrento with a few days in Ischia. In Sorrento, wander through the delightful Old Town with its winding medieval lanes, stroll down Via San Cesareo for a taste of limoncello from artisan makers and find a spot to people watch in one of the bustling pavement cafès in Piazza Tasso. Take a drive along the breathtaking coastline – a coastal road runs from Sorrento to Ravello via Amalfi and Positano and it's lined with charming fishing villages and scented lemon groves.

Ischia is Capri's larger, and more down-to-earth neighbouring island. There's the beautiful 8th- to 18th-Century ruins of Castello Aragonese in the old town, the lovely seaside piazzetta at the heart of Ischia's social hub and the picturesque pastel coloured fishing village of Sant'Angelo on the south coast. Head to the west coast for the best beaches, Ischia Porto for the glittering nightlife and Corso Vittoria Colonna for the designer shops. Hike up to the lush Mount Epomeo - the island's highest point - for panoramic views of the Med.

We've based this multi-centre holiday on what we feel allows the right amount of time to explore Sorrento and see some of the local coastline before heading off to Ischia for a more relaxed pace. If you have more or less time, talk to us and we can recommend an alternative itinerary to meet your requirements.
