Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1 : Uk - Naples - Ischia

Location: Metropolitan City of Naples, Ischia

Meals Included: No Meals

Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home for your flight to Naples. On arrival, we’ll board our ferry for the crossing to Ischia and transfer to our hotel.

Day 2 : Ischia

Location: Ischia

Meals Included: No Meals

Discover a slice of local Italy in Ischia. Just a stone’s throw from the mainland in the sparkling Bay of Naples, the island is regarded as Capri’s lesser-known sister. Quieter, yes. More relaxed, yes. But this volcanic island is just as seductive. It’s host to some dramatic historic sites and a string of soft, sandy beaches - plus there’s over 100 thermal springs which make it a popular wellness destination for locals and visitors alike.We waste no time in getting to know the island on a coastline tour with a local guide today. We’ll stop in Forio; drive via Panza to Serrara Fontana; visit Ischia Ponte, the site of the island’s magnificent medieval Castello Aragonese; and pretty little Lacco Ameno.

Day 3 : Ischia - Procida

Location: Ischia, Procida

Meals Included: No Meals

If you’ve felt the urge to dip your toes into sparkling blue waters, today might be the day. After a nice, leisurely morning, we take to the water for an island tour by boat around Ischia and Procida. The tiny little island of Procida in the Bay of Naples is a favourite among Italian holidaymakers and there’s a real local feel here.We’ll cruise around the island taking in the pretty sights from afar. We’ll pass Castello Aragonese and sail towards San Angelo to enjoy the views from the harbour. We’ll watch the sunset in the bay of Citara, with Prosecco and canapés. The perfect end to a memorable day.

Day 4 : Ischia - Sorrento

Location: Ischia, Sorrento

Meals Included: No Meals

You’ll have the whole morning to yourself today. Perhaps opt for a spot of shopping in the boutique shops lining Via Roma, or spend the morning at the nearby beach.This afternoon we’ll take the ferry back to the mainland and transfer to our hotel in Sorrento; a former converted religious convent in a beautiful setting on a cliff edge. The views of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius from the restaurant and terrace are breathtaking.

Day 5 : Sorrento

Location: Sorrento

Meals Included: No Meals

Cascading down a steep hillside overlooking the Bay of Naples and mighty Mount Vesuvius, Sorrento is a web of twisting narrow streets filled with family-run trattorias and gelato parlours. We head into Sorrento today to explore its cobbled streets together. Soak up the beautiful sea views - the view of Mount Vesuvius in the distance - and browse the lively street vendors selling famed Amalfi lemons. After the guided tour, we’ll stop by a local lemon grove to learn about the production of limoncello and local jam tasting.

Day 6 : Amalfi Coast

Location: Amalfi Coast

Meals Included: No Meals

Feast your eyes on some of the world’s most beautiful and iconic towns as we cruise past the glamorous Amalfi Coast by private boat. On our guided tour, we’ll first visit Positano; a cascade of pretty pastel-coloured houses and steep, winding streets. We’ll then continue to Amalfi, where sun-filled piazzas sit by historic buildings. It’s the perfect place to just sit and look.We’ll stop by a local patisserie for a tasting of the local sweet, ‘delize al limone’ (lemon delight) which is a sponge drizzled in a limoncello-based syrup.

Day 7 : Sorrento

Location: Sorrento

Meals Included: No Meals

Today is at leisure for you to spend as you please. Perhaps relax around the pool at our hotel and soak up those last views of the Bay of Naples, or maybe potter around the streets of Sorrento.Alternatively, you could join our optional tour to Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius. With a local expert, we’ll explore the one-time wealthy Roman town of Pompeii, which was buried in AD 79 by a massive eruption of Mount Vesuvius. We’ll also make the incredible journey up to the crater at the peak of the volcano.This evening we’ll enjoy a local farewell dinner together.

Recently returned from the great...

08-Apr-2024

Recently returned from the great Indian rail journey.My wife and I could hardly believe the value for money.From pick ups from Durham to Heathrow and back,to the number of coach and train journeys , quality hotels, great choice of food throughout and our first night in Heathrow Hilton. What really made our trip a success was our guide, Prashant,who managed a party of twenty four very varied, sometimes a little unpredictable travellers with ease.Nothing was too much trouble for him and as a group we gelled and warmed to Prashant as he kept us safe, well informed and a little entertained by his mix of authority and humanity.Where do I begin with the tour itself ? India,a country of extremes.Poverty,wealth,order,chaos.Sometimes bleak,often breathtakingly beautiful.The people,the cities,art, architecture,flaura and fauna.Delhi,Jaipur, Amritsar,Agra, Ranthambore, Chandigarh and the icing on the cake that is Shimla. An absolute masterclass of man versus nature,the railway and buildings are an unbelievable feat,but wait until you see the dual carriageway being built on the mountainside.🤯I could go on for a very long time but I'll just post some photos.Thanks to Titan,thanks to the excellent Prashant and and a massive thanks to the other twenty two travellers who helped shape our holiday of a lifetime.🏁💜

I have booked the Icelandic Adventure holiday with Titan Travel, the Booking Staff was pleasant throughout. What I love about Titan Travel, transfer from your home to the airport and vice versa is included in the holiday.

Exceptional trip and service by Titan

04-Oct-2022

Just returned from a fabulous tour of California & the golden west. It’s a full on tour with early starts but you see so much varied landscape from the ocean to the desert to Yosemite. My 2nd tour with Titan & my first solo tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it & met some great people. Grand Canyon was amazing would definitely recommend

Not merely a holiday, rather a memorable experience

29-Dec-2022

I have used other travel operators; this was the 1st time of touring with Titan----Israel, The Holy Land, from being collected from home and returned at the end of the holiday this was an unforgettable experience; the Tour Manager, a PhD Archaeology made the whole tour so interesting, he enlightened us throughout each day from an historical, archeological and Biblical viewpoint, bringing each site we visited come to life, and went over and above his remit escorting us for evening trips around the local area; thanks also to our very patient driver who coped with the very busy traffic; our hotels were good, professional and pleasant staff and really good food; I would recommend Titan to anyone looking for a fascinating tour with excellent efficient service thank you Titan nor just for a holiday for a memorable experience

Very good service by Vietnam Airlines, if you could afford book it in premium economy. We had a door to door service , picked up to airport from home and then dropped at home from airport, very convinient. Particular credit goes to our guide THI who is a caring, knolegeable, friendly down to earth man who made our trip a memorable one. I will not hesitate to book another holiday through Titan, their staff are friendly and helpful

We had a fantastic holiday...

26-May-2023

We had a fantastic holiday in Mississippi. Right from our chauffeur driven car picking us up to the return journey, we had a great time. The first hotel The Gaylord was amazing,absolutely huge,first class. The second The Double tree in Memphis unfortunately wasn't, the hotel was tired and very basic, the only plus was where it is situated in the centre of town, we were only there two nights so it wasn't to bad. The American Queen Steam Boat was first class all the way, thoroughly enjoyed the seven nights sailing down the Mississippi. The last hotel the Sheraton New Orleans was very comfortable too. Our guide throughout our time away was Laura Tuttle. she was amazing, very knowledgeable, and helpful. We also had a coach driver Guil, who went over and beyond to give you the best time. Other coach guides included Jim,who was so funny, and also very knowledgeably. Very entertaining throughout. The entire itinerary itinerary was very well thought out, included a huge variety of visits to different Interesting locations. Highly recommend using Titan for all your holiday destinations.

Perfect Italian Holiday…

31-Oct-2022

Just returned from a lovely week in Sorrento at the Grand Hotel Hermitage, we had an excellent guide Peter Macchristopher. we loved the hotel the staff were very nice especially in the dining rooms, the food was good and the room we had was really nice with a wonderful view. Altogether very good value holiday.we felt the trip to Pompei was very good also boat trip to Amalfi. I would recommend a walk to the village of St Agatha and a three hour ride on the Little Blue Train. Great fun.this can be booked at reception.

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!!...

03-Feb-2024

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!! (Dreadful) Avoid Titan and Saga at all costs. False descriptions of the tour and dreadful administration Returned to the UK last evening with a great sigh of relief after the worst holiday ever. 1. No block booking of airplane seats by Titan. (Husband and I sat apart on the long, overnight flight) 2. Unable to pre-book seats as Titan reference numbers did not coincide with anything. 3. Husband and I not sat together on any of the train journeys! In fact, on one occasion I was sat, alone on a sleeper carriage, a couple of carriages away from the rest of the group who were scattered over two or three carriages. Terrifying as a female to be sat alone in the midst of noisy locals!!!!! (Eventually the guide, Rahi, did come to rescue me and found a seat near the main group) 4. The guide, Rahi, would usually get off the coach and begin walking off without waiting for all the group to disembark the coach. (Spot the guide in the crowd!) 5. The guide, Rahi, refused to use any identifying prop such as a flag, hat, jacket or umbrella. Frightening to be in the manic crowds of Delhi and other crowded places to be unable to see the guide. 6. NO AUDIO HEADSET system on any excursion 7. The guide, Rahi, didn’t face the whole group, but stood sideways on and was unable to be heard by the majority. 8. OUTRAGEOUS behaviour by the guide when he enquired as to the whereabouts of my husband, whom I explained was in bed with an upset stomach and was feeling unwell. Rahi DID A REVERSE AIR PUNCH😳😳. This was in response to an earlier conversation when my husband had complained about our separate seating arrangements. TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL 9. When we arrived at Heathrow to find our aircraft seats were not allocated, we were advised to speak to our guide on arrival at Delhi. Rahi merely shrugged his shoulders and said he couldn’t do anything. 10. Tour pace incorrect - gruelling pace and only half a day relaxation due to the guide, Rahi, throwing in visits to shops and factories fie him to earn his commission as I head him tell another!!!!!!! 11. When off loaded the return flight due to illness, we were unable to get in contact with Titan/Saga. Left in Delhi without an hotel or flight!!! Found accommodation but didn’t remove shoes or clothes due to the poor standard. Final summary: Poor, disappointing, inefficient, incompetent, misleading, misrepresentations, are just a few words to describe.

Luxury VIP door to door...

17-Jul-2023

Luxury VIP door to door travel! I don't think so....Titan sent a Toyota Prius uber to Stanstead for a return journey to Newport, S Wales. 4 adults plus luggage! the experience was anything but luxurious. Contacted Titan on the return journey and since return. They simply didn't seem interested and offered us a £300 travel discount off a future trip! After a lot of emails they converted it to a £300 cash refund. Give it a lot of thought before booking !
