Travel through Italy’s southern regions to its largest island on this guided tour, exploring ruins, resorts, and history with a focus on Byzantine and Roman culture.
In Greek mythology, Scylla and Charybdis were fearsome sea monsters lurking in the Strait of Messina, challenging ancient mariners and giving rise to the phrase “caught between a rock and a hard place’. On this tour with Globus, however, you won’t face peril, you’ll be caught between cultures instead. Immerse yourself in Byzantine and Roman history, surrounded by Norman and Italian influences, in a vibrant cross-cultural landscape. Your journey begins in Rome, winds along the dramatic Sorrento Coast, travels down Italy’s heel to its toe and continues across to Sicily, where ruins, resorts and centuries of history await.
