Overview

Ponza is one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean, part of a larger achipelago of islands - the Pontine islands -  a national park in the region of Lazio.  It's easily accessible from Rome, but few travelers to Italy ever hear about it and Thank God because if peoiple found out about this place it would soon become over-run with the masses of tourists and cruise passengers that now flood Capri causing the cost of a coffee to be over 5 Euro!  No way, not here on Ponza. You can still savour an espresso in a beautiful bay with all the colourful houses that surround you for under 50 cents!

The pontine islands offer not only incredible geology and landscapes - the islands are comprised of two groups: around Ponza, the largest, lie Palmarola, Zannone and Gavi; whilst at roughly 20 miles away there is Ventotene and, close by, Santo Stefano. Only two of the islands are inhabited throughout the year: those of Ponza and Ventotene.  

With its picturesque villages and gorgeous beaches, Ventotene is a charming holiday destination and an affirmed favourite with scuba divers. In addition to the island's many natural wonders, Ventotene conserves a number of traces of its ancient Roman past. The two largest islands are linked to the mainland by a frequent ferry service.

“As a travel agent, but also a traveler to Italy, thee is no other company I would recommend than the Italy Vacation Specialists. Not only do they really care about what they are doing, they also really know Italy and try to educate many people about ways they can best see the country and not fall into tourist traps. I have been on 4 trips with the IVS team, firstly when they did my first 2 trips f”

“I am a travel agent with All About Honeymoons and I would highly recommend Italy Vacation Specialists. Jessica was wonderful in helping us plan in a last minute anniversary vacation during high season without any issues.

“I am a travel agent from Lebanon and have organized several group tours as well as individual tours of Italy with Italy Vacation Specialists. I highly recommend them as one of the very best tour operators in Italy to work with, given their professionalism and work ethic which I feel is second-to-none in the travel industry. All of the staff, the guides, the coaches and even the meals we enjoyed we”

“This company really knows their stuff and recommended our family to stay longer in each location. We didn't listen to them, but wished we had in every single place we went. They recommended Sestri Levante over the Cinque Terre which was our favourite destination on our entire trip. We visited Rome where we stayed in the outstanding Hotel Locorno where they know the owner there, like in every place”

“In September of 2018 I brought a group of 12 from Venice to Sicily and organized all of my services with the Italy Vacation Specialists. Being a travel agent and in the business, I know how complicated organizing travel arrangements can be in Italy and the IVS team took a huge burden off of me! I would like to start of by saying "THANK YOU" both for the amazing job you did on our trip. There was n”

We enjoyed his informative and effervescent per”

“In August 2018, my family of four and myself travelled from Vancouver, BC to Rome Italy and spent 3 weeks touring Italy with IVS. This company had come highly recommended by many friends and associates of ours who had used them before and indeed to say they do an outstanding job is an understatement. You can tell while being in Italy that it is one complicated place to run tours in, just by the sh”
