The Islands of Amalfi
Enjoy slow living on three stunning Italian Islands just off the Amalfi Coast — Capri, Ischia, and Procida (Italy’s 2022 Capital of Culture).
Live Your Dolce Vita
The first time you travel to an island in Italy, you get the memo pretty quickly — gear down. It’s like being in another dimension, even though it’s just a few miles from the coast of Naples. That big city energy is far, far away. A morning could find you wandering down to the marina to get a coffee. The stray cat who was snoozing on the pile of fishing nets wakes up and watches the going ons with you. A waiter asks what you’re doing today — you answer “everything and nothing.” Somehow both things are true on this tour peppered with artfully crafted day trips led from our island home base.
Your 5-night and 6-day Italian Fix experience includes stays on the islands of Ischia and Capri. You’ll also day trip to the island of Procida, the recipient of the 2022 award for the Italian Capital of Culture.
Ischia is known for its thermal waters, so we’ll be staying at a spa hotel while on the island. On Capri, we’ll be close to the shopping and experience the energy of the island after the day trippers leave. At the end of your tour, we’ll take you back to terra firma where you can choose to spend a few days on the Amalfi Coast or continue traveling. We pick you up from and return you to Naples, where there’s an international airport.

Itinerary Overview
The numbers indicate the amount of nights you will stay at each location.
We’ll collect you in the morning from your Naples hotel and head down to the port to catch the hydrofoil to Ischia — it’s a picturesque ride and you’ll be taking all the photos. We’ll check in to our spa hotel on Ischia — it’s right in town, so you can walk to amenities. Ischia is known for its thermal waters, and we’ve chosen a spa hotel so you can soak in these healing waters anytime you like during your stay. Our first day on Ischia includes some free time and some together time, including a beautiful meal al fresco.
One of the highlights of our experience together is getting to visit the island of Procida, which is in the spotlight for savvy travelers right now. Winner of Italy’s prestigious Capital of Culture award for 2022 (and its corresponding million-euro prize to help preserve and promote the area’s cultural heritage) Procida is the first island to win this award in Italy. What’s more, it’s often overlooked in favor of ritzier islands in the area, which is exactly why we’re going. We’re careful to hire local people and support local economies when we tour small communities like this. Lunch is at a no-frills trattoria — Italian Fix’s signature travel style makes sure we experience the locales frequented by the people who live there, and that’s usually away from the main drag. We’ll head back to Ischia before sunset so you can have some downtime.
This is a free morning on Ischia to do what your heart desires. Whether that’s getting up early and taking a walk to the marina or sleeping late and bobbing in the thermal waters at the hotel spa — enjoy your sweet life! The afternoon will be spent together for a tour of the castle followed by a sunset dinner together at our fave spot overlooking the bay.
Today we depart Ischia and head to Capri via passenger ferry — this takes less than an hour. We’ll check in to our Capri hotel and take a driving tour of the island. You’ll want to relax after your Capri review so tonight will be a free night to dine in the main piazza or wander the town of Capri.Our hotel is centrally located, so you can walk to shops, restaurants and amenities.
Today you’ll cruise the coast on our private boat. That classic shot of you living your best life with the Faraglioni (those steep rock formations in all the shots of Capri) behind you isn’t going to take itself, after all. We’ll have lunch at the beach club like a professional Italian and you’ll soak up the last rays of this sexy Amalfi energy.
Check-out and departure day with transfer back to Naples, or you can extend your stay on Capri or elsewhere on the Amalfi Coast. You might even be heading to another Italian Fix trip after this. Whatever you need, we’ll help. Buon viaggio!

A Word From Our Founder
All islands fascinate me. I grew up on an island in Canada, and whenever I travel, I seek them out. Islands attract a different kind of traveler. This experience is perfect for someone who has a natural affinity for Italy, and someone who’s already traveled to Italy before. You consider yourself travel savvy — you can jump on ferries and boats and throw your bag in the back of Angelo’s Ape. When we’re island hopping, we’re on the move. This is the least “polished” of any of the tours Italian Fix offers, and we plan to keep it that way. Not that we’ll be roughing it — I can already feel the stress wrinkles smoothing out after an hour bobbing in the thermal waters of our Ischa spa hotel and relaxing at the beach club on Capri — this is living your best mediterranean life at its finest. Just thinking about all those big pretty plates of pasta have me menu planning already — an activity we take pretty seriously around these parts!
If the islands intrigue you, we recommend tacking this mini-tour onto one of our longer trips. It’s just 5 nights, and we’ve designed our schedule to make stacking tours easy and convenient. But you can also do this tour on its own, and my team is a dream when it comes to helping you plan before or after travel. Pack all your bathing suits — we’re island hopping Italian style!
With love + vino,
Bianca

What You’ll Experience with Us
FAQ
We’re a boutique travel company, not a luxury travel company. Although we do think of ourselves as fancy (we even train our hosts with some of the same service tenets as the Ritz), we want to do things differently.
We want our trips to be more inclusive and open to a more diverse set of travelers than a typical luxury tour operator that just serves the 1%. We like to think of our experiences as a beautiful balance of high and low. We might offer a stunning multi-course meal with wine pairings at an award-winning restaurant one evening, and the next day, we’ll be eating a panino at a plastic table at the market. Because, let’s be honest. You didn’t come to Italy to have a Disneyland-esque type of experience. You’re here to experience it all, not just the touristy stuff. We love to offer our guests the kind of beautifully layered and nuanced experience that our Italian friends would plan for themselves.
Our travel and logistics experts are geniuses at crafting the perfect combination of local experiences, tastes, sights, and sounds. Many of our Italian Fix hosts live in the areas we visit or have lived there before. So, we know people.
We’re intentional in our decisions about where we stay, where we eat, and where we visit. It’s important to us that we support the ethical, family-owned businesses we know and love. No chain hotels are on our roster. We purposefully and artfully select the smaller, family-run places that offer next-level experiences and unique boutique-style service. We aim for 10/10 reviews — without the $12K price tag for access.
We have a combination of solo travelers, people traveling with friends, and people traveling with partners/spouses on all of our tours. We also have a mix of “co-ed” and “women only” dates.
First off, we speak Italian! We also understand the context, the customs, and the community of every location we visit. In Italy, it’s not what you know — it’s who you know. And we know people.
Coming with us is like having a backstage pass or an insider’s tour, and you need that in Italy because it’s way too busy and too easy to get caught up in the fray. If you travel on your own, you’re just one in a million foreigners waiting in lines and trying to get service. No connections or language fluency makes that so much more frustrating!
Our travel style allows you to be among friends and have access to things you couldn’t find on your own. We’re into slow — and sustainable — travel. We support family-run businesses and local producers. And we’re picky! No big-box concept of tourism around here. At Italian Fix, we’re mindful about keeping traditions alive and supporting local economies.
One of the most beautiful things about our trips is that they attract a lot of different kinds of people — and we’re proud of that. Our fun, safe, and let-your-hair-down energy the right kind of guests from around the world with different backgrounds — because wanting to live your dolce vita is something that transcends any zip code or age range.
We have guests who return to Italian Fix year after year. From the person who enjoys traveling solo to the besties who want to take one more trip of a lifetime, they all want to live the Italian lifestyle in a carefree, fun-filled, and relaxing week. They trust Italian Fix to confidently handle all the details so the only thing they’re responsible for is embracing the art of living — Italian style.
Our carefully crafted itineraries have been perfected over years of hosting successful trips so they play out like a symphony — with cadence, timing and rhythm. All of our trips have up-time and down-time. The introverts who need quiet to recharge can get it, and the extroverts who derive energy from new connections can thrive too. One of our mottos is “Hey, it’s your holiday — opt out of any days you like” We have lots to see, eat, do and explore whenever you wish to join in. Just put on your comfy shoes and andiamo!
We’re a really small company that serves just a few hundred people per year. You can read more about us here. By comparison, most tour operators are really, really big — some of them serve about 30,000 people per year! That’s not who we are — we’re female-owned and mostly female-run, and getting to know each of our travelers by name is super important to us! We truly want to get to know you.
We employ incredibly smart, organized, and hard-working individuals (mostly women) who are passionate about travel, culture, adventure, and people. We also work in our comfy pants and have a sane work schedule where we can pick up our kids from school and enjoy our lives too. We do what we do so that you can live your dolce vita.
