Naples & Amalfi Coast Holidays

Bursting at the seams with rich history, buzzing culture and some of Italy’s best food (which is really saying something), Naples champions indulgence and enjoyment to the max. Get your fill of history with a trip to the imposing Ovo Castle and the Museum of Archeology with its vast collection of artifacts from Greek, Roman and Renaissance times. Wander through the city’s tangle of streets and enjoy a long lunch to really savour the region’s flavours: garlicky spaghetti alle vongole (spaghetti with clams) and silky parmigiana di melanzane (eggplant parmigiana). Indulge in some retail therapy and seriously impressive architecture at the mall Umberto I and once you feel like you’ve gotten the lay of the land in Naples, drive to the nearby Amalfi Coast, one of the most evocative names in travel. A stay on the Amalfi Coast holiday incorporates dramatic cliffs plunging into the sea and charming towns dotted at regular intervals, making it a serious contender for Europe's most romantic spot. All together now - amo, amas, Amalfi. A Naples and Amalfi Coast holiday is guaranteed to leave you feeling well and truly relaxed and pampered (and perhaps a few pounds heavier).

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

Which experiences is Naples and the Amalfi Coast best for?

History-steeped Naples has plenty of ancient sites to tick off. Visit Fort Saint Elmo, a medieval fortress sitting high on a hill, and enjoy sweeping views over Naples. Head to the island of Magaride for more spectacular panoramas at the Castel dell'Ovo (Castle of the Egg) and for gory stories, visit the New Castle and see its Pit of the Crocodile where - legend has it - prisoners were dragged off by the beast in the castle’s dungeons. Other historical hot-spots include the museum housed in the Royal Palace, the city’s old town and Spanish quarter and the impossibly long and straight Spaccanapoli street.


Nearby, there are plenty of other attractions that lure. Admire the craters, lakes and volcanic edifices in the Phlegraean Fields park and stand before the crater of the Solfatara volcano that still emits jets of steam. Afterwards, visit the neighbouring city of Pozzuoli and see its impressive amphitheater (the third largest in Italy). Island hop between Procida, Capri and Ischia and enjoy a stay along the dreamy Amalfi coast with its many enchanting cliff-topped villages. Spend some time wandering through the ancient city of Pompeii that was engulfed by the towering Vesuvius volcano and be reminded of the true power of nature as you take in the ruins of this sprawling archeological site.
