Excursion “Unknown Naples”.

An exciting journey awaits you through the narrow streets of Naples Old Town, surrounded by legends and centuries-old stories. During your walk, you'll discover the unusual, lesser-known face of Naples - a city where ancient temples alternate with bustling markets, and myths and legends come alive at every turn.

Find out about The miracle of St Januarius - the city's heavenly patron saint, visit Naples Cathedral and see its religious relics and treasures. You'll pass through the historic quarters, where craftsmen create the traditional Christmas scenes and miniature figures that have become a symbol of the city.

At the end of the tour, a real Neapolitan taste experience: a flavoursome Neapolitan pizza and a portion of soft gelato will be the perfect end to a day in the mood of southern Italy.

Free time for relaxing by the sea or if you prefer excursions to Positano and Amalfi (extra charge 60 € + ferry ticket ~45 €).

Amalfi Coast - It's an Italian dream come true: turquoise sea, colourful houses, lemon gardens and fresh sea air.

Every village on this coast is like a painting: Pozitano with its picturesque staircases, boutique shops and romantic atmosphere, Amalfi with its imposing cathedral and breath of antiquity.
Here you can enjoy a limoncello at sunset and feel like an Italian film hero.

The Amalfi Coast is not just a destination - it is an experience, an emotion and a taste of Italy that stays in your heart forever.

Day 4

Breakfast.
Free time for relaxing by the sea or if you prefer excursion trip to Caserta (additional fee 40 € + entrance ticket).

Royal Palace of Caserta Often called the Versailles of Italy, it is majestic and luxurious, but without the tourist rush, it retains a special southern elegance and charm.
18th century. The palace, built in the 18th century for the Bourbon dynasty of Naples, impresses with its grandeur: more than 1,200 halls, an impressive marble staircase, ornately decorated suites and solemn interiors where scenes from “Star Wars” and “Angels and Demons” were filmed.”

Behind the palace is a vast park, one of the most remarkable examples of European garden and park art. Cascading fountains, antique sculptures, avenues of orange trees and picturesque ponds reflecting the sky and the castle towers.

This place allows you to feel the breath of history, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Baroque era and, for a moment, step into a fairy tale - one of Italy's least-known gems.

Day 5

Breakfast.

Cruise to Herculaneum - an ancient city where time stands still. Like Pompeii, Herculaneum was also buried under a layer of ash during the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79. Thanks to the unique composition of the ash and lava, not only frescoes and mosaics have been preserved here, but also wooden structures, utensils and even furniture - a real rarity in the ancient world.

Walking along the cobbled streets, time seems to stand still and life as it was two thousand years ago comes alive before your eyes.

At the end of the tour - Campania wine tasting (~20 €). This region is famous for its vines and the sun-soaked aromas of its wines, which perfectly reveal the flavours and character of southern Italy.

Day 6

Breakfast.

Cruise to the island of Procida (ferry ticket at an extra cost of € 50 return) - one of the jewels of the Italian islands, where time moves slowly and life has kept its authentic rhythm.

Procida is every photographer's dream - narrow streets, brightly coloured building facades reflected in the blue waters of the bay, and fishing boats bobbing peacefully off the shore. The famous films “The Postman” with Massimo Troisi and “Catch-22” were filmed here.

Dinner at the hotel is available on request (extra charge).

Day 7

Breakfast.

Free time to relax by the sea or on request excursions to Gaeta and Sperlong (extra charge 40 €).

Gaeta - an ancient port town, perched on cliffs above the sea. The Aragon Castle stands out in the skyline, while the historic centre still has many churches, including the Cathedral of Saints Erasmus and Marciano, the Church of Saint Francis and the Byzantine Church of San Giovanni a Mare. The narrow streets, sea views and medieval atmosphere give Gaeta a special charm and make a stroll through the town unforgettable.

The road then leads to Sperlong - a small but charmingly beautiful resort town known as the “White City”. The old town is a maze of narrow streets, arches and staircases leading up to viewing platforms with fabulous panoramic sea views.

In your free time, stroll around town, relax by the sea, visit cafés and boutiques, enjoy photo-pauses and relax in a relaxed southern atmosphere.
