Clever things to do in Naples
Explore the Archaeological Museum
Delve into the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, home to an unparalleled collection of artefacts from Pompeii and Herculaneum. Witness exquisite frescoes, mosaics, and sculptures that bring the ancient Roman world vividly to life.
Wander through Spaccanapoli
Stroll along Spaccanapoli, the ancient decumanus that literally 'splits Naples' in two, a narrow, teeming street cutting through the historic centre. Observe daily life unfolding amongst centuries-old churches and artisan workshops.
Descend into Napoli Sotterranea
Venture beneath the city streets into Napoli Sotterranea, an astounding network of ancient Greek and Roman aqueducts and tunnels. Discover air-raid shelters and even a Roman theatre deep underground, a truly unique perspective on Naples' layers of history.
Indulge in Neapolitan Pizza
Savour authentic Neapolitan pizza at a legendary spot like L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele, where simplicity and tradition reign supreme. Opt for a classic Margherita or Marinara and understand why this city is its birthplace.
Visit the Capodimonte Museum
Ascend to the Capodimonte Museum and Royal Park, a magnificent former Bourbon palace showcasing masterpieces by Caravaggio, Titian, and Raphael. Enjoy not only world-class art but also panoramic views over the city and Bay of Naples.
Experience the Veiled Christ
Be awestruck by Giuseppe Sanmartino's 'Veiled Christ' at the Sansevero Chapel Museum, a marble sculpture so lifelike it seems to defy its medium. The sheer artistry and detail of the transparent veil are profoundly moving.
Take a day trip to Pompeii
Embark on an unforgettable day trip to Pompeii, the ancient Roman city frozen in time by Vesuvius's eruption in 79 AD. Walk among the preserved streets, villas, and amphitheatres, gaining chilling insight into daily life two millennia ago.
Ride the Funicular to Vomero
Hop on one of Naples' funicular railways up to the Vomero district for breathtaking vistas, especially from Castel Sant'Elmo. The views of Mount Vesuvius, the Bay of Naples, and the sprawling city below are simply spectacular.
Know before you go
Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) offer the most pleasant weather, avoiding the scorching summer heat and winter chill, making exploration of outdoor sites far more enjoyable. Expect fewer crowds too.
Naples International Airport (NAP) is well-connected to the city centre. The Alibus airport shuttle is efficient, dropping you at the Central Station or Molo Beverello port. Taxis are also readily available, but confirm the fare beforehand.
Beyond pizza, explore trattorias in the Spanish Quarter (Quartieri Spagnoli) for authentic Neapolitan cuisine – think rich ragù, fried seafood, and pasta dishes. For pastries, a sfogliatella from Sfogliatella Mary near Galleria Umberto is non-negotiable.
Embrace street food! Naples offers incredible, budget-friendly eats from fried pizza (pizza fritta) to arancini and frittatine. Drinking coffee standing at the bar (al banco) is also significantly cheaper than table service.
For a truly unique experience, seek out the 'figure of the Monaciello' in the Museo del Sottosuolo (Museum of the Underground). This peculiar exhibit tells the legend of a mischievous little monk, a fascinating piece of Neapolitan folklore rarely known to tourists.
