BRAVA ITALIA
Naples ~ Capri ~ Amalfi Coast

 
May 22 - 30, 2025

That’s us in the photo above during our last tour to the Amalfi Coast prior to the pandemic, with picturesque Positano in the background! This incredible tour includes Naples, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Vesuvius, the Isle of Capri, Sorrento, and the Amalfi Coast. It is one of our most requested tours of all time, and we are thrilled to be offering it once again over the Memorial Day weekend next year. Come with us and you will understand why it is so popular with the Toto Tours crowd! Click here for full details.


Naples and Surrounds

Our tour begins in the historic city of Naples, which boasts incredible museums and imposing buildings. Towering over the horizon is Mount Vesuvius which created the frozen-in-time museums of Pompeii and Herculaneum, which we visit in a full-day excursion from the city. You’ll want to arrive early to soak up more of the atmosphere of this city!

The Isle of Capri

A hydrofoil whisks us across the Gulf of Naples to the Isle of Capri. During the day it is full of short-term visitors, but we are staying for two nights so we experience an entirely different side of Capri. In the evening, after the last day-trippers leave, a kind of exclusive peace settles over the island as those who are privileged to be staying here emerge for their evening stroll, or to sip drinks on the famous square, the Piazzetta. (Seen here: The “Mama Mia” bridge to Anacapri and the stunning colors inside the Blue Grotto)


The Amalfi Coast

Thrill to one of the world’s most scenic drives - the Amalfitana - passing between sea and mountains on a road carved out of the sheer rock. This coast was named on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage in 1997. We visit the towns of Ravello, Positano and Amalfi among others during our three-night stay among these amazing seaside towns. We return to Naples for our farewell festivities.


TIME AND TIDE WAIT FOR NO MAN . . .

Flowing Gently with Life

Toto Tours is celebrating its 35th Anniversary in 2025, and it has been my privilege to bring this company into existence and to share so many life-changing experiences with all of you over these decades. This passion for travel has been my true calling in life, but now I need to heed other calls from my family and friends and from my own body and spirit.

I will be hanging up my Ruby Slippers at the conclusion of our final tour next year. Toto Tours may very well continue on, with me in an advisory role for a short time after that. Details are still being ironed out and I’ll keep you posted. The upcoming tours represent our best chance to say farewell to each other in person. I hope you will travel with me at least one more time before the end of next year.

This decision feels absolutely right for me, and it brings me great peace of mind. I recognize the truth of impermanence - nothing lasts forever - and I want to exit gracefully while I still have my full faculties and so much more living to do. Please join me in celebrating the beauty of the full circle of life.

With love and gratitude, Dan Ware

Please Note: If you have any outstanding credits with Toto Tours from pandemic-cancelled tours, you need to use those before the end of 2025.

About

Toto Tours has been serving the LGBT community since 1990. We have the distinction of being the only gay tour company in existence which has been operating with the same ownership and management for such a long span of time. We are dedicated to creating exciting travel opportunities that enable our community to explore the wonders of the world in comfort and safety while having the time of our lives. Our clients come back year after year to travel with friends they met on previous trips, meet new people, and explore different parts of the world. We constantly develop new adventures to appeal to everyone, from those venturing on their first international trip, to even the most experienced and frequent world travelers. Our name is derived from the Latin word meaning "all-inclusive." The rainbow colors of the gay flag weave through the word TOTO to symbolize our connections to each other, our communities, and the world. Welcome to Toto Tours, where gay men, lesbians, their close friends and adult family members are invited to travel together to discover all the delights this world has to offer -- "in Toto."

KEEP HOPE ALIVE

In this difficult time we have created a short video message (at the right) to offer encouragement, and to remind everyone that this pandemic will someday be a memory. We might feel helpless right now, and unable to do all the things that we love (like exploring the world), but we can use this time to take an exciting inner journey to explore more about who we are and what we believe. We could very well emerge from such an adventure as more centered humans who are better able to cope with unexpected situations, and grateful for all the good things we have. This is the Toto Spirit. We support you on this inner journey and look forward to the day when we can once again travel together! -- Dan Ware, Founder

Words cannot describe the beauty of Africa -- seeing wildlife in their natural habitat along with the beauty and landscape of the Namibian desert. I had such a great time that I returned for my second Toto Tour (to the Balkans) one year later!

Grover Hartt & Charles Foster
Dallas, TX

The meticulous arrangements, including knowledgeable and accessible lecturers with comfortable and luxurious accommodations, impressed us a lot during our incredible trip to Antarctica.

Nick Barrett and Piero Bonino

Our Normandy tour with Toto in 2016 was fascinating, with a brilliant local guide who had an encyclopedic knowledge of French History, Customs and Culture.

Gary Ku

I had an excellent time with the Toto Tours family for our Antarctica cruise. Dan is always making sure everyone is taken care of and included. I would encourage people to give Toto Tours a try because it is awesome!

Hima Pamoedjo

I am a retired illustrator, and I enjoy traveling all around the world with Toto Tours. I've gone with them to Costa Rica, Newfoundland, Germany, Turkey, and most recently to Tanzania where we saw incredible wildlife! I love meeting new friends on Toto Tours, and hope I will meet you on a future tour -- somewhere in this beautiful world!

Russell Andrews
Lawrenceville, Georgia, near Kotor, Montenegro

It was such a great tour with an expertly thought-out itinerary visiting a mix of "can't miss" sites and small out of the way gems that a larger group might not have been able to do. I truly look forward to my next journey with Toto.
