Compare Naples holidays

If you think you know food and you think you know Italy, but you haven’t been to Naples, you might need to recalibrate the part of your brain that deals with taste and travel.

Read on to discover why Naples will open your eyes, tantalise your taste buds and steal your heart…

Italy’s third-largest city. The capital of Campania. Home to three million people. None of these factual titbits can prepare you for the onslaught of sensory experiences delivered by holidays to Naples. Why? Because Naples is a behemoth of pulsing activity, a constantly changing destination that ebbs and flows with life like the swell of passengers that stream in and out of the bustling port.

At the lower end of the crime scale, graffiti artists score the city’s architecture with their spray cans. At the top end, corruption sullies the waters of authority. But you don’t even have to scratch the surface to uncover the marvelousness beneath it all. It’s there in the opera houses, the palaces and museums, the rich mouthful of perfect coffee and the cheese-topped slice of pizza perfection.

Naples holidays can be spent within the borders of the city centre, perusing art, touring cathedrals, shopping for fine Italian threads, and licking your fingers after yet another delicious dish of authentic fare. Or they can be enjoyed mingling with the summer crowds, where the surf meets the sands and the sounds of the lively coastal scene. Alternatively, skip along the craggy shoreline to the south and stop in at Sorrento, hop across to Capri or find out what makes hearts flutter wildly in gorgeous Amalfi. Hire a car in Naples and you are no more than 90 minutes from Sorrento and Amalfi (or a ferry journey from Capri). For a totally different daytrip, head towards the fearsome Mt Vesuvius crouching low on the horizon beside Naples. It erupted nearly 2,000 years ago and buried the city of Pompeii under a blanket of ash. And no trip to Naples is complete without a haunting walk around the temples, theatres, homes, public baths and cart-worn streets of this unearthed city.
