You'll get a real flavour of Calabria's ‘Coast of the Gods' on this tour. As well as visiting Capo Vaticano, famed for its views of Sicily and the Aeolian Islands, you'll discover the heritage-rich towns of Tropea and Pizzo, and learn about the local products that the Calabrians are so proud of.

This tour takes in the crown jewels of Calabria - Capo Vaticano, Tropea, and Pizzo, each offering its own unique charm. Stand on top of the cliffs of Capo Vaticano, where you'll snag Instagram-worthy shots of Sicily and the Aeolian Islands stretching out before you.

Tropea, the Tyrrhenian Sea's pearl, clings to the cliffs, dazzling visitors with its Cathedral, charming historic centre, and views of a secluded island. Then, there's Pizzo, where history meets sweet indulgence. Explore Gioacchino Murat's Castle, marvel at the rock-hewn church of Piedigrotta, and treat yourself to Pizzo's claim to fame – the irresistibly creamy Tartufo ice cream.

We had a fantastic trip to Cape Vaticano, Pizzo, and Tropea. Our guide, Maxine, was absolutely great, and our driver, Enzo, ensured we traveled safely and comfortably. The stunning views and charming towns made the experience unforgettable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the beauty of the region. Maxine's knowledge and enthusiasm brought the history and culture to life. Enzo's driving skills made navigating the winding roads feel effortless. It was a memorable experie

I enjoyed the whole day. The tour guide was really good, she was interesting and informative with a sense of humour. The only criticism would be that not enough warning was given before of the physical demands of the tour for anyone with a disability.

Very long day , but also Interesting and lovely places to visit , fantastic informative guide ( Betty ) also plenty of free time

Great tour overall. Enjoyed most of it. Was a very hot day though and a lot of walking which handsome struggles with. Product tasting in Tropea/Pizzo and walk around was excellent. There is only one thing I would say. On a downside was expecting as advertised to see Piedigrotta Church but was not taken there. Personally I would have preferred to see this as oppose to Capo Vaticano which, whilst a lovely view, was time I would rather have spent at Piedigrotta Church.

I was expecting a guided tour for the money that I was charged. It was not one. It was more oriented for German speakers with very little information/ guidance provided in English. It’s also 30mins at Capo Vaticano, 4hrs at Tropea and 2hrs at Pizzo. We struggled to keep pave with the guide as we had children with us. The guide also did not seem knowledgeable to answer any questions about anything else (streets, artefacts/ culture) that was not part of the tour script that she was following.

A lot of travelling picking other guest up. Tour guides struggling to fill day as places visted lacking intersting sites.. No proper toilet stops. Would not class tour as small group! Spent too long in Tropea. Guides did there best with what they had to offer
