PORTRAIT OF ITALYfrom the AmAlfi CoAst to VeniCe
June 2-17, 2020
Dear Rice alumni, parents, and friends,
Travel with us on an exclusive 16-day tour to Italy. Our small group will experience the best of Italy’s countryside and its great cities – Rome, Florence, and Venice – as well as priceless art, outstanding cuisine, and unique lodgings. We are pleased to have Leo Costello, Associate Professor of Art History at Rice University, lead this compelling journey.
Staying on the storied Amalfi Coast, we’ll discover Italy’s Campania region, visiting historic Pompeii and exploring Sorrento. Next, during a three-night stay in Rome, we see the city’s most famous sights and enjoy time for independent exploration. Then it’s on to Umbria and Tuscany with their traditional villages and medieval hill towns: Orvieto, Assisi, Siena, and San Gimignano. In Florence, we savor the opportunity to see Renaissance masterpieces, then we savor a tasting at a local winery in the Chianti region. Our tour concludes in magical Venice, with time to view its iconic sights and the chance to prolong the stay in this timeless city with a 3-day/2-night post-tour extension.
With space for only 24 Rice-affiliated guests in total, we expect this tour to fill quickly. Book today and secure your place on this memorable journey through Italy!
Sincerely,
Rice Alumni Traveling Owls

Day 1: Depart U.S. for Naples, Italy
Day 2: Arrive Naples/Amalfi Coast After arriving in Naples this morning, we travel to the storied Amalfi Coast, a popular resort and our base for exploring Italy’s Campania region. We dine at our hotel tonight, as we will throughout our stay here. D
Day 3: Ravello This morning we experience this breathtaking coast by sea as we cruise from our hotel to Amalfi Center (weather permitting). Here we en-joy a brief tour of the region’s largest town then have lunch on our own. Next we ascend to mountaintop Ravello, with its spectacular gardens and coastal views. B,D
Day 4: Pompeii/Amalfi Coast/Sorrento Our full-day excursion begins in Pompeii, the city frozen in time by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 ce but not excavated until 1748. After a tour and lunch on our own here we embark on a breathtaking drive along the winding Amalfi Coast road high above the azure Medi-terranean – with stops for photos and in Sorrento along the way. We return to our hotel late afternoon. B,D
Day 5: Amalfi Coast/Montecassino/Rome En route to Rome today we visit the town of Montecassino, whose Abbey is the mother church of the Benedictine order and a center of medieval art. A German strong-hold during World War II, the hilltop Abbey was destroyed by Allied bombing then rebuilt as a replica of the 17th-century original. We tour the Abbey, then continue on to the Eternal City. We arrive at our well-located hotel mid-afternoon; our tour director will lead an informal walk of the nearby area. B
Day 6: Rome This morning we tour the heart of ancient Rome: the 55,000-seat Colosseum, built in 72 ce to stage gladiator spectacles; and the temples of the Forum, ancient Rome’s political and legal center. The afternoon is free to explore on our own; the pos-sibilities endless: shopping along the fashionable Via Veneto; sipping espresso in beautiful Piazza Navona; seeing the Pantheon, the city’s best preserved ancient building; tossing a coin into Trevi Fountain; or visiting any number of renowned museums and churches.

Meet Your Faculty HostLeo Costello teaches eigh-teenth- and nineteenth-century European art and special-izes in Romantic European painting. He worked for two years at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston before coming to Rice in Fall 2004, having received his Ph.D. from Bryn
Mawr College. Since being at Rice he has been a four-time finalist for the George R. Brown teaching award and hopes to actually win it one day. In 2013 he was the recipient of the Graduate Student Association’s award for Graduate Teaching and Mentoring. His book, J.M.W. Turner and the Subject of History, was published in June 2012, and he is currently work-ing on a new book, Pictures of Nothing: Romantic Figurations of the Void, which is concerned with Romantic depictions of nothingness, absence, void and immateriality within related theological, socio-political and aesthetic/literary discursive networks.
