Things to Do in Naples
Plan your days in Naples, your way
Naples gives you the full spectrum without demanding anything extreme.
One morning for Pompeii or the Archaeological Museum, your pick, and it will be the right one.
Lunch is pizza, obviously, at a place where the dough has been rising since yesterday.
An afternoon wandering the centro storico: Spaccanapoli, a church or two, coffee standing at a marble bar.
Ride the funicular up to the Vomero as the light goes soft, for the castle view over the whole bay.
Dinner in Chiaia at a trattoria where the menu changes with the morning's catch.
A gelato on the lungomare afterward, Vesuvius a silhouette across the water.
One easy day trip, Capri or Sorrento, whenever the mood strikes.
Nothing rushed, nothing skipped, everything tasted.
You will leave feeling like you actually met the city.
