Dinner with a phenomenal view in Marechiaro. If you are in two I advice my favourite order
- Sauté vongole (one to share in two)
- Linguine all'Astice (the classic recipe [main course])
- Greco di Tufo di Villa Matilde (one bottle in two)
- crostata di limone (dessert)
this way everything you should pay less than 100 euros (then if you are happy of your personal waiter we use to tips them in cash)

Not go for pizza, but traditional Neapolitan food. If you are in two I advice my favourite is "Zizzone mozzarella" with "Melanzane a funghetto". Then if you are still hungry maybe try one "Pasta alla Genovese " and "Carne alla Genovese" then if you drink water the bill will be fair

You’ll find this gem hidden among the narrow alleys of the city center, near the famous Via dei Presepi. The church’s underground crypt was once used as a burial site. Members of the Neapolitan Cult of the Dead often came here to pray. They often offered prayers especially to the “skull with ears,” hoping this anatomical curiosity would act as a messenger between the worlds of the living and dead. The skull lives up to its name as it has two pieces of mummified cartilage, one on either side, which resembles ears. Look out for it watching over you as you explore.

If you’re a travel buff then you’re not going to want to miss this hidden gem. The National Railway Museum of Pietrarsa is housed in the old Bourbon workshops that were founded in 1840 at the command of Ferdinand II. You’ll be able to uncover the history of railways in Italy from the mid-19th century to today’s high-speed trains. There are lots of locomotives on display and much of the museum is covered, making it perfect if you’re in the area on a rainy day. It lies just to the side of the Naples-Portici railway line – Italy’s first railway line – and is very close to Naples itself.

Another underground hidden gem of Naples. This tunnel, which was at first left incomplete was identified as one of the key spots for Naples during WWII. As Naples was one of the most widely-hit bombing destinations in Italy, the tunnel facilitated as an air-raid shelter for thousands. You can see artifacts like kids’ toys and gas-masks and other wartime debris like fascist statues and vehicles used during the war. The tunnel, however, underwent a restoration in the 2000s and transformed into a hidden gem.

The Stazioni dell’Arte or the Art Stations project entrusted the vision of the city’s public transit stations to contemporary artists and architects in order to bring art to people’s everyday lives.

Gaiola is mostly on the rocks, situated in front of two little islands. There’s a villa on one of the islands, which is said to be cursed and is therefore abandoned. This is the perfect place to visit if you’re looking to soak up some sunshine in the warmer summer months. The marine park offers some of the city’s cleanest waters in all of Italy and a great place to escape the bustling tourist crowds. With fishing being banned here, many fish have returned which makes it a fantastic snorkeling spot too.

Posillipo, Naples, Is Classy, Historical, Affluent—And Not on the Main Tourist Trail.
Part of its charm comes from its crumbling and restored historic villas, some of which have been converted into apartments
The Neapolitan neighborhood of Posillipo is an alluring mix of faded grandeur and sophisticated coastal living.
Posillipo wraps around a hilly peninsula in south Naples, Italy, and has fairy-tale scenery formed of sheer cliffs, tiny islands, coves and beaches, with views out to Capri island.
The area, which has been populated for at least two millennia, was once known as Pausílypon, an ancient Greek word meaning “respite from worry.” The Romans discovered it in the 1 century AD and settled there, building sea-facing villas on Posillipo hill.
A top choice among the Neapolitan elite and its wealthy classes, elegant Posillipo has enduring appeal, not least for its beautiful homes, which include picturesque palaces and villas that perch romantically on hillside promontories.

Tuck into spaghetti with clams or calamari cooked in white wine, while admiring seaside views of Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples.

Best for a shot of cinematic Naples. The Quartieri Spagnoli, or Spanish Quarters, were built in the 16th century and are said to form Napoli’s most authentic neighbourhood. This is the Naples of the movies: fluttering laundry strung between shuttered windows, cigarette-puffing residents surveying the street below from their balconies, and vendors, many in the same spot for years, flogging their produce – ripe tomatoes, plump olives or knobbly citrus fruits. The best way to explore the Quartieri Spagnoli is without a map or a plan, stopping in whatever shops, churches and markets that look enticing. But if you happen to pass (or arrive at) the Toledo metro stop, it’s worth popping inside to see the spellbinding immersive artwork inside – a more modern side to this old neighbourhood

Best for Neapolitan grit and exploring underground. Sanità (meaning health) where aristocratic families could move away from the chaotic – and at the time, filthy – city centre. It’s since garnered a reputation for being one of Naples’ grittier districts, traditionally a Camorra mafia stronghold and an area where petty crime can affect tourist stays. Nowadays, Sanità is slowly reaching the tourist radar, thanks to its characterful mix of peeling apartment blocks, antique palazzi and tiny shrines adorned with flowers and candles. The neighbourhood is perhaps most famous for its Catacombs of San Gaudioso and of San Gennaro, and the spookier-still Fontanelle Cemetery. Located in volcanic caves, the cemetery is the resting place of thousands of anonymous remains, many of which were victims of the plague epidemic which devastated Naples in the 17th century.

Among the natural attractions of the area is the Scrajo spa, founded in 1895. At the spa, they offer therapies for various diseases, thanks to the several sources of sulfur water that feed into the centre. The complex is also used for beach tourism, thanks to its proximity to the sea.
The Church of the Annunciation was the cathedral of the Diocese of Vico Equense, until 1818, when it was abolished. Built in the early 14th century on a clifftop overlooking the sea, it is an example of Gothic architecture, while the facade is in Baroque style.
The Antiquarium Silio Italico is an archaeological museum founded in 1966 that collects mainly funerary objects found in a necropolis, discovered in Vico Equense during the construction of some buildings in the 1960s and 1970s.
The Campanian Mineralogic Museum, founded in 1992, had originally on display a collection of mineral samples donated by Pasquale Discepolo, a local engineer. As the years went by the museum has further enriched its collections, adding various display sections dedicated to gemstones, palaeontology and even anthropology.

Positano is a village and comune on the Amalfi Coast (Province of Salerno), in Campania, Italy, mainly in an enclave in the hills leading down to the coast.
MAR Positano (Roman Archaeological Museum) Santa Maria Assunta. The museum, inaugurated on 18 July 2018, is a museum-like archaeological site. The underground complex is divided into two crypts and a room of the Roman villa. The walls of the frescoed room from the imperial era are the only example of wall painting in Roman villas on the Amalfi Coast. The particularly bright colors are a peculiarity of the site. Further archaeological investigations are planned, aimed at the recovery of other rooms of the complex.
The church of Santa Maria Assunta features a dome made of majolica tiles as well as a thirteenth-century Byzantine icon of a black Madonna. According to local legend, the icon had been stolen from Byzantium and was being transported by pirates across the Mediterranean. A storm had blown up in the waters opposite Positano and the frightened sailors heard a voice on board saying "Posa, posa!" ("Put down! Put down!"). The icon was unloaded and carried to the fishing village and the storm abated.
The Marina Grande beach is at the base of the cliff side town of Positano and is the most recognized beach in the town. Other popular beaches include Fornillo beach (the second largest beach in Positano) and Arienzo beach.

Amalfi occupied a high position in medieval architecture; its cathedral of Sant'Andrea (Saint Andrew, 11th century), the campanile, the convent of the Cappuccini, founded by the Amalfitan Cardinal Pietro Capuano, richly represent the artistic movement prevailing in Southern Italy at the time of the Normans, with its tendency to blend the Byzantine style with the forms and sharp lines of the northern architecture.

Pompeii was an ancient city located in what is now the comune of Pompei near Naples in the Campania region of Italy. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area (e.g. at Boscoreale, Stabiae), was buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79.
Largely preserved under the ash, the excavated city offered a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried, although much of the detailed evidence of the everyday life of its inhabitants was lost in the excavations. It was a wealthy town, with a population of ca. 11,000 in AD 79, enjoying many fine public buildings and luxurious private houses with lavish decorations, furnishings and works of art which were the main attractions for the early excavators. Organic remains, including wooden objects and human bodies, were interred in the ash. Over time, they decayed, leaving voids that archaeologists found could be used as moulds to make plaster casts of unique, and often gruesome, figures in their final moments of life. The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provide a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latin spoken colloquially at the time, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers.
Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors annually.
After many excavations prior to 1960 that had uncovered most of the city but left it in decay, further major excavations were banned or limited to targeted, prioritised areas. In 2018, these led to new discoveries in some previously unexplored areas of the city.

Ischia is a volcanic island in the Tyrrhenian Sea. It lies at the northern end of the Gulf of Naples, about 30 kilometres (19 miles) from Naples. It is the largest of the Phlegrean Islands. Roughly trapezoidal in shape, it measures approximately 10 km (6 miles) east to west and 7 km (4 miles) north to south and has about 34 km (21 miles) of coastline and a surface area of 46.3 square kilometres (17.9 sq mi). It is almost entirely mountainous; the highest peak is Mount Epomeo, at 788 metres (2,585 feet). The island is very densely populated, with 62,000 residents (more than 1,300 inhabitants per square km).
Ischia is also well known for its thermal water and thermal gardens used since ancient times. Its volcanic nature makes Ischia one of the largest spas in Europe. Ischia's thermal waters are alkaline. Already the first Euboic settlers (8th century BC), as evidenced by the numerous archaeological finds found in the site of Pithecusa and preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Villa Arbusto[5] in Lacco Ameno, appreciated and used the waters of the island's thermal springs. The Greeks, in fact, used the thermal waters to restore the spirit and the body and as a remedy for the healing of the after-effects of war wounds (in the pre-antibiotic era), attributing supernatural powers to the waters and vapors that gushed from the earth; it is no coincidence that temples dedicated to divinities such as that of Apollo in Delphi rose in every spa town. Strabo, Greek historian and geographer, mentions the island of Ischia and the virtues of its thermal springs in his monumental geographical work (Geograph. Lib. V). If the Greeks were the first peoples to learn about the powers of thermal waters, the Romans exalted them as an instrument of care and relaxation through the creation of public Thermae and they used the numerous springs of the island surely and profitably (as evidenced by the votive tablets found at the Source of Nitrodi in Barano d'Ischia, where there was a small temple dedicated to Apollo and to the Nitrodie Nymphs, guardians of the waters) even without lavish settlements; In fact, on the island, as in Rome and in other ancient thermal centres, no impressive vestiges of thermal buildings have been found, probably due to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes that frequently violently shook the crags. The decline of the power of Rome coincided with the abandonment of the use of bathrooms also in Ischia: in fact, there are no traces of the use of water in the Middle Ages.
Ischia is the name of the main comune of the island. The other comuni of the island are Barano d'Ischia, Casamicciola Terme, Forio, Lacco Ameno and Serrara Fontana.

Monumente 'e Caserta
The Royal Palace of Caserta is a former royal residence in Caserta, southern Italy, constructed by the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies as their main residence as kings of Naples. It is the largest palace erected in Europe during the 18th century. In 1997, the palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site; its nomination described it as "the swan song of the spectacular art of the Baroque, from which it adopted all the features needed to create the illusions of multidirectional space". The Royal Palace of Caserta is the largest former royal residence in the world, over 2 million m3 in volume and covering an area of 47,000 m2.
In 1861, with the birth of the Kingdom of Italy, Savoyan officials surveyed the contents of the Palace. The bidet was inventoried as follows: "strange object in the shape of a guitar".
The palace was listed as a world heritage site in 1997. According to the rationale, the palace, "whilst cast in the same mould as other 18th-century royal establishments, is exceptional for the broad sweep of its design, incorporating not only an imposing palace and park but also much of the surrounding natural landscape and an ambitious new town laid out according to the urban planning precepts of its time."
