Day by day

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Welcome to Rome

    Take time to embrace the Italian passion for life on this grand adventure that starts and ends in the 'Eternal City' of Rome. Spend the day exploring on your own before meeting your Travel Director and fellow travellers this evening for a light meal.

  2. 2

    Explore Ancient Rome and the Vatican City

    Begin your journey through Rome at the Vatican Museums, where you’ll join a Local Specialist to see Michelangelo’s frescoed ceiling in the Sistine Chapel and his Pietà inside St. Peter’s Basilica. Explore the landmarks of Ancient Rome, viewing the Circus Maximus and visiting the Colosseum. This afternoon is yours to explore — relax in a lively piazza with a coffee or visit one of the city’s world-class museums.On some departures, access to St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums may be restricted. You'll still enjoy the atmosphere of St. Peter's Square during your visit to the Vatican City, and if tickets are unavailable to the Vatican Museums, you'll instead explore the Capitoline Museums, home to iconic Roman art and archaeology.

  3. 3

    Admire Pompeii and on to Sorrento

    Venture south towards the ancient city of Pompeii which remains frozen in time since it was covered in ash during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius centuries ago. Here, you'll join a Local Specialist who will share insights into the city's tragic history. Continue to the clifftop town of Sorrento.

  4. 4

    The Isle of Capri

    Cruise to the captivating Isle of Capri this morning and explore its glamour on a walking tour with a Local Specialist that will include views of the marina and Augustus Gardens. Venture to the heart of the island and the legendary Piazzetta, where the locals come to people-watch. Spend free time shopping at elegant boutiques or perhaps join an Optional Experience and explore the rugged coastline and hidden grottos by private motor launch.

  5. 5

    Onwards to Assisi

    Venture north to the historic city of Perugia. Here we'll Make Travel Matter and discover Italy's weaving tradition during an impressive MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience at our visit to Laboratorio Giuditta Brozzetti, a TreadRight and Join Trafalgar Heritage Initiative project. Explore one of the last remaining traditional wooden frame hand-weaving workshops in the country, before continuing to the ancient hilltop town of Assisi.

  6. 6

    Journey to Venice

    Join a Local Specialist to explore the Basilica of St. Francis, known for its striking stained glass and Giotto’s famous frescoes. Travel north past hilltop villages and through open farmland towards Venice, the ‘Queen of the Adriatic’.

  7. 7

    Cruise the Canals of Venice

    The Winged Lion of Venice is your constant companion as you travel by private launch to a Venetian glassblowing workshop. You'll watch master craftsmen use techniques dating from the 13th century to shape the delicate glass pieces Venice is famed for. Next up is St. Mark's Square to view the Basilica, the ornate Doge's Palace and Bridge of Sighs, so named because of the sound prisoners made as they took one last look at their beloved city from the bridge before meeting their fate. The rest of the afternoon is yours to explore and wander in the footsteps of Casanova and Marco Polo. You’ll want to relish every second spent in this enchanting city.

  8. 8

Visit Piazza della Signoria, the heart of this flourishing city with its statues and stunning palazzi, then view the Ponte Vecchio.

Travel at 60 Social Getaways

Travel further when you're not travelling alone

Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.

Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.

  • A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
  • Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
  • Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.

Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
