Naples Travelers Recommend

The Amalfi Coast’s colorful seaside towns are an idyllic respite from busy Naples, and they’re close enough to make for an easy day trip. Here’s what you need to know about coastal tours, which handle all of the logistics so you can simply relax.

Group Tours

The Amalfi Coast is one of the most popular day trip destinations from Naples, so organized group tours of the area are plentiful. Some tours combine a visit to the excavated ancient Roman city of Pompeii or the charming nearby city of Sorrento with one or two Amalfi Coast towns, giving you a broader sense of the region. Group tours have the benefits of being budget-friendly, and they give you a chance to focus on sightseeing rather than navigating the notoriously difficult coastal road.

Private Tours

Choose a private tour of the Amalfi Coast for the kind of unique, intimate experience you can’t get with a group tour. Learn more about the history of Pompeii with a personal guide, or travel the coastal road in a vintage Fiat 500 or on the back of an iconic Italian scooter. Private tours are ideal for small groups traveling together and for those who want to custom-build their itinerary.

Things to Know

• Though not technically part of the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento is often included on Amalfi Coast tours.

• Naples to Sorrento is about 32 miles (51 kilometers) by road, or about half that distance by boat. Naples to Positano is about 39 miles (62 kilometers) by car.

• There is no train service along the Amalfi Coast. Trains go only as far as Sorrento on one end and Salerno on the other; on the coast itself, tour buses and public buses are the main transportation options.

• The winding coastal road can be a challenge for drivers who need to share the narrow turns with large buses and tiny scooters.

With its tranquil coves, charming villages, and spectacular views, Capri is one of the highlights of the gulf of Naples. Reachable only by boat, the island makes for an easy day tour from Naples. Here’s what you need to know for a memorable trip.

Group Tours

Group tours offer the best value and mean you can maximize your time and cram multiple sites into one day. In addition to checking off the island’s top attractions—including the Blue Grotto, the Faraglioni rock formations, the Roman ruins of Villa Jovis, and the towns of Capri and Anacapri—many tours combine an island visit with stops at Pompeii, Sorrento, or the Amalfi Coast.

Private Tours

Private tours offer a more personalized experience and a flexibility itinerary that can be tailored to your interests. Enjoy the undivided attention of your private guide as you visit sights such as the Villa San Michele, the Gardens of Augustus, and Marina Grande; take a scenic boat ride around the Blue Grotto, or drive along the famous Mamma Mia! road. Alternatively, save time with a private speedboat transfer and explore the island at your own pace.

Things to Know

• Capri island is located in the Bay of Naples and is reachable only by boat.

• High-speed ferries take about 45 minutes from Naples.

• Day tours from Naples typically last eight to 10 hours, and most tours include hotel pickup and round-trip transport by hydrofoil.

• Capri has a Mediterranean climate, so be sure to wear sunblock and drink plenty of water if you’re visiting during summer.

The excavated city of Pompeii offers visitors a genuine feel for ancient Roman life, as they can travel back in time to stroll the cobbled streets that were buried in volcanic ash nearly 2,000 years ago. Here’s how to best visit this UNESCO-listed site from Naples.

Half-Day Tours

The ruins of Pompeii are close enough to the center of Naples that it’s easy to visit the archaeological site with a half-day tour. Fit it into your trip to Naples with a morning or afternoon trip, but keep in mind that there’s not much shade so it’s best to bring sun protection in summer. You’ll be back in Naples in time for an evening out exploring the city.

Full-Day Tours

With a full-day tour, you can add other destinations and activities to a Pompeii tour, including a hike up to the crater of Mt. Vesuvius—the volcano that buried the city in the first place. Another option is to visit Pompeii and Herculaneum, a smaller yet better preserved ancient city also buried by Vesuvius. For a break from history, consider a tour that combined Pompeii with an exploration of Sorrento or the stunning Amalfi Coast.

Things to Know

• The excavated ancient city of Pompeii is set 16.6 miles (26.5 kilometers) from Naples.

• Pompeii tours involve quite a bit of walking over uneven surfaces, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes. Bring water and sunscreen during warm weather, too.

• Half-day tours tend to be five hours or fewer, while some full-day tours can be about nine hours long.

As one of the busiest ports and transport hubs in southern Italy, Naples serves as a convenient jumping-off point for the Amalfi Coast and Capri; the archaeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum; and Mt. Vesuvius. Here are some of the best day trips from Naples.

The Amalfi Coast — about 40 miles (60 kilometers) away

Located just south of Naples, this famous stretch of coastline is characterized by dramatic cliffs and colorful fishing villages that appear to tumble into the sea. Skip the hassle of car hire on a boat or bus tour of coastal villages Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello; most Amalfi Coast excursions also include a stop in the resort town of Sorrento.

Capri — about 25 miles (40 kilometers) away

The fashionable island of Capri has served as a retreat for the world’s celebrities and intellectuals for centuries. Join a day cruise to get the best views of the Faraglioni sea stacks and the Blue Grotto. Private and small-group boat tours generally let you swim in the island’s crystalline waters and dock at Marina Grande, from where you’ll have free time to explore the island. 

Pompeii and Herculaneum — about 15 miles (25 kilometers) away

Archaeology buffs will jump at the chance to explore two of the world’s most significant Roman ruins. The ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum were both buried beneath layers of mud and ash during the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD, which preserved them over the millennia. Today, day trips allow you to see the remains of houses, shops, and temples that were once lavishly covered in frescoes and mosaics.

Mt. Vesuvius — about 10 miles (15 kilometers) away

Mt. Vesuvius is one of the most striking features along the Bay of Naples. Venture to the edge of its upper cone and you’ll be rewarded with views that stretch to the island of Capri. Gourmands can pair a trek to the peak with wine tasting and lunch, which typically takes place in the vineyards that line the fertile volcanic slopes. 

In Naples, summer means long days, lots of sunshine, and an exhilarating slate of activities. From island trips to ancient ruins to Vespa tours, here are some of the best ways to make the most of a summer trip to sunny southern Italy.

• Sample delicious street foods, including sfogliatella (a sweet ricotta-filled pastry) and Neapolitan-style pizza, during a food tour of the city.

• Take shelter from the midday sun inside the fresco-filled Naples Cathedral (Duomo di San Gennaro), the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, and the Sansevero Chapel (Museo Cappella Sansevero).

• Travel along the Amalfi Coast, a scenic region famed for its charming cliff-top towns and spectacular coastal scenery.

• Take a boat trip out to the idyllic island of Capri, a favorite getaway of the rich and famous.

• Zip around the UNESCO-listed center of Naples on a vintage Vespa.

• Enjoy the cool evening breeze and atmospheric streets during a nighttime tour of Naples.

• Inspect the perfectly preserved remnants of the Roman town of Pompeii, which was devastated by a volcanic eruption in AD 79.

• Hike to the summit of Mount Vesuvius and soak up the incredible views out over the Bay of Naples.

• Taste limoncello and shop for locally made handicrafts in the Mediterranean resort town of Sorrento.

• Take advantage of the warm temperatures and long days to explore Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii.

Naples may lack the romantic appeal of Rome and Venice, but southern Italy’s gritty, noisy port town is a comparative bargain for budget travelers. The country's third-largest city, it has amenities at all price ranges and makes a cost-effective base for exploring the Bay of Naples’ ancient attractions. Here’s how to stretch your euros. 

Visit Art-Filled Churches

Many of Naples’ artistic treasures can be seen at little to no cost inside places of worship that are open to the public. Check out frescoes by Giotto in Santa Chiara church, Byzantine mosaics at the Cathedral of Naples baptistery, and the ancient Roman ruins buried under the Basilica of San Lorenzo Maggiore.  

Walk or Bike

The compact historical center of Naples is ideal for wandering on foot or exploring by bicycle. It doesn’t cost a thing to soak up the scene in public squares such as Piazza San Domenico Maggiore or stroll through the labyrinth of old Naples’ backstreets. Guided walking and bike tours can reveal hidden corners brimming with history. 

Take Advantage of Low-Cost Day Trips

Naples is well positioned as a jumping-off point for southern Italian highlights such as Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius, and the Amalfi Coast. The cheap Circumvesuviana regional train can zip you there for a day of archaeological exploring and have you back in Naples in time for dinner. Alternatively, group day trips arrange all the transportation for a stress-free day of sightseeing. 

Dig In to Neapolitan Pizza

Luckily for budget travelers, the signature dish of Naples will only set you back a handful of euros at most casual pizzerias. Fresh, margherita-style pizzas are easy to find in any corner of the city and pair well with a wallet-friendly scoop of gelato. Take the guesswork out of finding the city's best pizza, pastries, and other Neapolitan specialties on a food tour.

Stretching along the coastline to the foot of brooding Mt. Vesuvius, Naples is a mix of fascinating history, world-class art, and a feisty spirit. Get a taste of all three in the city center, where headliners such as the National Archaeological Museum, Churches of Gesù Nuovo and Santa Chiara, San Carlo Theater, and Piazza Plebiscito sit shoulder to shoulder with the teeming Spaccanapoli thoroughfare, artisan-lined Via San Gregorio Armeno, and picturesquely gritty Spanish Quarter (Quartieri Spagnoli). Don’t forget to dip into Naples’ spirited food scene, centered on rowdy pizzerias and traditional trattorias. Naples is also a hub for day trips and excursions to Positano and the Amalfi Coast, Capri, and Sorrento, as well as to the archaeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum and Mt. Vesuvius. Experience the essence of Naples with these top picks and experiences.

With three days in Naples, there’s plenty of time to explore the city’s historic sights and museums, head out of town on a trip into the country, to the coast, or to explore the ruins of nearby Pompei—and, of course, lots of chances to enjoy the city’s famous pizzas. Here are a few excellent ways to spend 3 days in and around Naples.

Day 1: History and Underground Tunnels

Get your bearings in Naples with an introductory tour: Climb aboard a double decker, hop-on hop-off bus, and explore the city at your own pace with stops at landmarks like the Museum of Capodimonte, the San Carlo Theater, and Piazza del Plebiscito. Another option for covering ground quickly is to take a Segway tour or get a bit of exercise on a guided bike tour.

Once you’re familiar with the city’s geography, see its flip side and learn about its history by heading underground. Guided tours take you through the tunnels that run under the city and were used as air raid shelters during World War II. Finish the day with an after-dark tour on a Vespa or Fiat 500 for several photo ops.

Day 2: The Signature Flavors of Naples

Experience the city’s culinary traditions with a food-focused walking tour that features locals’ favorite places to eat and drink. Opt for a tour that focuses on street food or one that includes stops at markets and off-the-beaten-path restaurants. Pizza aficionados can sign up for a Neapolitan pizza-making course with a professional pizzaiolo. Hands-on workshops include step-by-step instructions from everything from kneading the dough to pulling the pizza out of the oven—and the chance to taste the fruits of your labor. It’s also possible to get a taste of Naples with an after-dark street food tour or dinner with a Neapolitan chef.

Day 3: Discover the Amalfi Coast and Beyond

Naples offers easy access to a variety of day-trip destinations. History buffs can explore the archaeological ruins of Pompeii and visit Mt. Vesuvius. For a full day of historic sites, combine a trip with a visit to Herculaneum, another ancient town that was destroyed by volcanic activity. Food-focused travelers may want to sign up for a truffle-hunting day trip or combine a trip to Pompeii with wine tasting at vineyards on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius.

To spend the day near the water, opt for a cruise along the scenic Amalfi Coast that includes stops at several towns, including Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. Alternatively, depart from Naples by boat and head to the island of Capri; some tours include a visit to the island’s famous Blue Grotto sea cave. Afterwards, you’ll make it back to the city in time for one last night out in Naples.

Though temperatures drop in Naples in the winter months, the climate of this southern Italian city is still usually mild enough to enjoy the outdoors. You will, however, get wet and windy days, so make sure you have a contingency plan in case it rains. Here are a few outdoor and indoor suggestions for exploring Naples in winter.

• Have the ancient Roman ruins virtually to yourself during a tour of Pompeii.
• See the city in comfort (even on a rare blustery day) by opting for a hop-on-hop-off bus tour.

• Experience the lavish lifestyle of Italy’s aristocracy with a tour of the Caserta Royal Palace.
• Shop for holiday gifts at the La Reggia Designer Outlet.

Naples is the birthplace of pizza, and one of the best places in Italy to find great examples of this now ubiquitous Italian food. Authentic Neapolitan pizza may not be as easy to find as you think, though. Here’s how to experience the real deal.

Highlights

• A traditional pizza in Naples arrives whole and is eaten with a knife and fork, partly because the crust is so thin that it wouldn’t hold up to being sliced. 

• One pizza is considered a single serving, so each diner usually gets his or her own. 

• Ingredients must be of exceptionally high quality or a pizzeria won’t get the local seal of approval.

Pizza Walking Tours

Learning what to look for when you’re choosing a pizzeria in Naples is key, and it’s the kind of insider knowledge you’ll get on a food-focused walking tour. Some tours in Naples include a pizza dinner, while others stop for several types of street food—including pizza—to give you a broader overview of the city’s culinary offerings.

Pizza Cooking Classes

Get beyond simply eating Naples’ most famous dish with a pizza-making class. Learn from an expert how to create an authentic Neapolitan pizza, from making the perfect crust to adding just the right amount of each topping. A pizza class not only means you’ll get to eat your delicious creation, but you’ll also get to take home a valuable skill.

A destination for its signature pizza, Naples has more to offer beyond its world famous restaurants. Explore the city’s underground tunnels, wander the galleries of the Archaeological Museum, and cruise the city streets on the back of a Vespa. Here are a few ways to spend 24 hours in Naples.  

Morning: Welcome to Naples

Get an introduction to Naples on a comprehensive tour. Go for a ride on the hop-on hop-off bus with 30 different stops on three routes, including top landmarks such as Capodimonte Museum and Piazza Municipio. To explore on foot, opt for a walking tour that includes historic sights such as Naples Royal Palace and Saint Gennaro church. For a speedy overview of the city, book a Segway tour and zip past San Carlo Theater, Piazza del Plebiscito, and other attractions. To see the hidden world beneath the city streets, take an underground tour that explores tunnels and caves. 

Afternoon: Neapolitan Flavors

Taste the renowned cuisine of Naples on a food-focused tour. Some tours combine street food and sightseeing, including stops at hidden eateries, while others might stop at a market. No trip to Naples is complete without eating the city’s signature pizza. To learn how to make the pizza—in addition to eating it hot from the oven—sign up for a pizza-making course with a pizzaiolo (pizza maker), which includes hands-on experience kneading the dough. Round out the afternoon with a tour of the Archaeological Museum of Naples to see a variety of Roman and Greek art. 

Night: Naples by Vespa or Fiat 500

Discover Naples by night on a tour that highlights the city's beauty. Cover ground quickly on a private Vespa sightseeing tour.

This type of comprehensive tour is also available in an iconic vintage car, a Fiat 500. Learn about the history and architecture of landmarks throughout Naples as you cruise the city. Another option to see the city lights of Naples includes a bus tour and pizza dinner at one of the city’s famous pizzerias.

Close your eyes and picture Italian food. What probably comes to mind are classic dishes from Naples: steaming pizza baked in a wood-burning oven; towering heaps of pasta tossed with bold sauces; and ricotta-rich pastries. These pillars of Naples’ informal fare are not to be missed, so here’s how to sample the city’s most beloved foods.

Must-Try Dishes

Neapolitans are unapologetic about their carb consumption, and the city is not a destination for those worried about their waistline. The most iconic dish from Naples is, of course, pizza. Whether eaten folded into quarters as a street food ( pizza al portafoglio ) or with a fork and knife from a plate while seated elbow-to-elbow with fellow diners at one of the pocket-sized local pizzerias ( pizza al piatto ), true UNESCO-listed Neapolitan pizza is pizza margherita, with tomato sauce, fresh buffalo mozzarella, and basil.

Pasta is also a favorite in Naples and can be found tossed with clams and mussels ( spaghetti alle vongole ), baked with tomato sauce and ground meat and sliced like a pie ( timballo ), or served with a last-minute sauce of tomatoes, garlic, hot pepper, capers, and olives as pasta alla puttanesca.

Must-Do Experiences

• Experience Naples’ historic coffee culture at one of the many historic coffeehouses, with a bracing espresso and crisp sfogliatella pastry, filled with sweetened ricotta and candied orange peel.

• Learn how to reproduce Naples’ most beloved dishes by joining a pizza or pasta cooking class with a local chef.
• Sample wines from the region at a winery on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius overlooking the Bay of Naples.

Though Naples is most famous for blue skies and sunshine, downpours do sometimes occur in the southern Italian city. A storm doesn’t mean you need to scuttle your plans, though: There are still plenty of things to keep you occupied. Here are our top picks for how to ride out the rain in Naples.

• Travel back in time during a tour of Naples National Archaeological Museum, home to sculptures that date back to ancient Rome.

Naples may be a bustling port, but Neapolitans are known for their passion, and there is no better way to celebrate your love than surrounded by the city’s ardour. Take in its timeless grandeur and uniquely lively spirit, fall in love with the local cuisine, and visit the most romantic island in the Mediterranean. Here are a few suggestions to help you find the romance in Naples.

Naples by Night

Naples is a feast for the eyes by day, with its teeming streets and picturesquely faded glory. At night, the city quiets and softens under the golden street lamps, and the historic center and waterfront become positively captivating. Join a night tour by car or Ape Calessino (tuk-tuk) to experience its magic.

Wine with a View

The soaring outline of Mt. Vesuvius looms above the city on the horizon, and its volcanic slopes are covered in lush vineyards. Sample local wines produced on this fertile mountainside by joining a wine tasting, and drink in the view over the city and Bay of Naples while sipping the local reds and whites. 

Set Sail to Capri

Set in the Bay of Naples just offshore from the city, the island of Capri is one of the most spectacular and romantic islands in the Mediterranean. Take a small-group or private day trip for two to the island, setting off from Naples or Sorrento to explore its dramatic coastline by sea and heading back to the mainland as the sun sets.

Neapolitan Dishes for Two

Naples is known for its excellent cuisine, and there is no better way to invoke memories of your romantic break in the city than by re-creating some of its classic dishes at home. Join a cooking class to learn how to prepare Neapolitan recipes for a lifetime of candlelight dinners. That’s amore!
