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 enjoyed seeing something of the region, but there was not enough time in Pizzo at the end for us to view the town after being taken to the ice cream cafe. The tour isn’t really a full day tour. We were taken around Tropea and then given free time to occupy ourselves. This was 2hours and we had been taken around the main route. It would have been nicer to have a little less time here and more in Pizzo. We enjoyed the guide we were with who was very caring about inclusion of all of the group.

Our guide was very knowledgable & our driver very professional. I think the reps in resort could have give us a little more detail as to how much walking was involved or maybe a little more information on the description would be useful.

Coach smelt disgusting of fish upon arrival, then spent over an hour travelling to collect more passengers. First stop was ********** view point for 20 mins, the cafe man was rude and didn’t want to let us use their toilet - then we arrived In town for too long - and we decided enough was enough and ordered an uber - best additional £40 spent as we then went back to hotel for a nap instead of more **********

Awful experience. We’ve had some great experiences with TUI but this was horrendous. The bus had a strong sickly, and fishy toilet smell. The bus was old and looked uncared for with pieces of plastic missing off seats and my seatbelt wouldn’t click in properly. We drove for 90 minutes to Capo Vatican to stop for only 15 minutes. Guide was vague and disorganised. 1 family didn’t travel back either us and made their own way back from Tropea due to short comings of trip. Very poor overall.

I enjoyed the hole trip.i have one wish more time in pizzo .the pizzo stay ended sooo fast we didnt had the time to check around a lot.maybe Tui ka cut one hour from tropea and put it to pizzo it will be perfekt.

We enjoyed the information given on the tour. We didn't enjoy or understood, why we left so early in the morning and had to miss breakfast. A half hour reschedule, leaving at 8 o'clock would have been better especially for people with health issues.
