Naples Sergio Style

Today, after breakfast, our group will follow the tour leader in a private stroll across the centre of the city. Sergio will show you his favorite spots of the most beautiful city in the world, according to him. Passing through Via Toledo, Pignasecca, the Spanish Quarters you will end up into Piazza Plebiscito and Castel dell’Ovo. This seaside castle’s name derives from a legend about the Roman poet Virgil and the oldest standing fortification in Naples. From here you can enjoy the beautiful sea view and admire Mount Vesuvius.

In the afternoon, optional visit to the island of Procida, one of the Phlegraean Islands, where we will walk along its colorful streets and enjoy a tasty lunch by the sea in its small lively port. Returning to Naples, you will be free to spend the rest of the afternoon at your own leisure.

Free Day in Naples – Optional Visit to Ischia

Today is a free day: spend the time as you wish and explore the area at your own pace. Your host will be around to offer advice and guidance as needed.

Many will appreciate this free time to pay a visit to Pompeii and its historical ruins. Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried in the Eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

If history is not your thing your host will be happy to lead an Optional Visit to the largest island in the bay of Naples, Ischia. The island is considered by many to be the most beautiful, though Capri is considerably more famous. It is volcanic in origin and still classed as an active volcano. No worries, though, it has not erupted since 1302!
