Capri is famous for its wonderful natural beauty, deep-rooted history, mild climate and bright landscape. The island is spectacular, with postcard-worthy soaring cliffs, surrounded by a deep-blue sea.
Ischia may be one of Italy's best-kept secrets! The island boasts colorful towns and beach clubs, authentic food, mineral-rich thermal waters and spas surrounded by magical scenery.
Pompeii is the queen of archaeological sites. Destroyed in AD 79 by the terrible eruption of Vesuvius, Pompeii was buried under a thick layer of ash and has been preserved in an almost perfect state. A walk around this vast complex of ruins is a fascinating and moving experience.
Puzzuoli is a colorful maritime town famous for the Anfiteatro Flavio, one of the finest surviving ancient arenas, with its large underground caverns where exotic beasts from Africa were caged before being turned loose in the ring against gladiators.
As far as Italian cliches go, Naples seems to encapsulate them, but this is a city which is largely untouched by modern tourism, with plenty of art and history in its atmospheric streets, crowned by an incredible food culture.
The Neapolitan Riviera is one of Italy`s most popular vacation destinations. Its coastline curves around the sun-soaked bays of Sorrento and Naples on Italy`s southwest coast. Inland you`ll find ancient ruins like Pompeii and natural wonders like Mount Vesuvius.
Declared one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites for its undisputed beauty and the uniqueness of its natural landscape. Typical houses, painted in warm pastel colors, follow the natural slope of the foothills of Mounts Lattari, leaning against each other, creating a very picturesque landscape.
