Italy Family Tours
It's time to see the pastel colors that cling to Positano's dramatic cliffs above the blue Mediterranean Sea. These colors reveal the shocking ruins of Pompeii, which were frozen in time by Vesuvius. At a traditional mozzarella factory, you can learn the old art of making cheese by hand. You can also see how the rich and famous live on the beautiful Isle of Capri, where luxury yachts fill the harbor.

I wouldn’t change a thing. This was our first overseas trip with kids (8 &11) so we were a little trepidatious. Exodus travel had everything planed out perfectly. It was the right blend of incredible activity and free time. Our guide Savy always had an amazing 6th sense for just when the kids needed an ice cream recharge. 2 Tori in Agerola was a great place to stay and beautiful. It’s just above all the craziness of the coast but still very convenient. Not having to drive in Naples and the Amalfi coast yourself is probably worth the cost lol.

I took my 12 year old son on the Intrepid Family Adventure. We had an amazing time. The guide was helpful, considerate and lots of fun. Playing games with the kids in the pool and making sure everyone was comfortable and happy. The pace was fantastic for a family with the mornings full of exploring with the group and the afternoons reserved for free time for families to spend together. Our highlight was the sailing trip to Capri. Can't recommend highly enough
