Naples City sightseeing Trips

Our last day exploring Pompeii was unforgettable. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, and the skip-the-line tickets made everything smooth. I was especially moved by the plaster casts – such a powerful reminder of history. Great way to end an amazing tour.

Capri was just breathtaking! The hydrofoil ride was smooth, and we had ample free time in Anacapri to explore. I loved the Augustus Gardens – the view of the Faraglioni rocks was postcard-perfect. Definitely the highlight of the trip for me.

From Sorrento’s Limoncello tasting to strolling through Positano’s charming streets, this day was full of Mediterranean magic. Amalfi was wonderful – the cathedral is stunning and the coastline views are simply unbeatable.

Lovely walks and sensibly amended to cater for weather conditions. Gennaro was an excellent guide - it was good to hear about the area from someone whose family have lived there for generations.

Amalfi coast is definitely something to see before you die ( with Explore or otherwise). The best of south Mediteranean 'La vita e bella' feeling exhudes all around. The pinacle is Capri island, unsurprisingly widely popular among Holywood stars. Details: ITINERARY : excellent. The routes are well paced, and well chosen, to enjoy the best of the beautiful costal walks. Some views breathtaking. With a well balanced combination of nature and touristic attraction focus. One 'free' day to enjoy Pompei and Heraculaneum - really worth seeing both in one's lifetime (The best prerved Roman ancient cities, a real feel how ancient life was 2000 years ago ) ACCOMODATION - average ( we stayed in Hotel Risorgimento) A bit stuffy and tired, I would say MEALS - average. I have to say I did suffer a bit with the daily pasta, pizza and risotto. I was surprised to notice how scarce in vegetables the 'traditional' Italian restaurant menu is. Low in protein, low in fibre, rich in carbohydrate! :-( For a health conscious person, sub-standard. However in the context of everything else manageable for a week. Having said that I have to add: the home made pizza was de-lici-ous. The best pizza ever in my life. PRICE - value for money: ok. You have to add at least £250 for the trip which includes 'optional' add ons: pizza demo, tagilatele demo, Pompei entrance, bus trip. These are optional but everyone did them all. I would say that Pompei is a must; the pizza and pasta demos are optional GUIDE - amazing. Mateo is funny, sociable, personable, accomodating for everyone and has a high sense of responsiblity and awareness of every participant. I think he met everyone's needs.

I would highly recommend the Hotel Risorgimento, walking tour. The staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are basic, but spacious, light, airy and very clean. The food was good, and very happy to adapt if needed. The walks were great, very different every day and our guide Sati was wonderful, full of local knowledge and wit! The village was ideal to stay in, away from the hustle and bustle of the coast, with a good few restaurants to choose from when you had a free evening. You get to cover a fair bit of the Amalfi Coast in 6 days.
