Naples city breaks
Naples is a window into Italy at its most authentic. Daily life plays out against a stunning setting, rich with religious and historical wonders. From scooters and street food to chaos and coffee, this compelling Italian masterpiece is sure to stir your senses in every way.
Eat the perfect pizza
The city’s claim to fame is the Pizza Margherita. A wood-fired base topped with tomatoes, mozzarella and basil make up this world-famous dish. Legend has it the pizza was first created in 1889 for Queen Margherita who wanted the colours to match the Italian flag. You’ll find this street snack everywhere and you can even try it deep-fried at legendary pizzeria Di Matteo!
Go underground
To really get under the skin of this city, you need to go underground. Running below the busy streets above, the sacred Catacomba di San Gennaro is an extensive network of narrow alleyways. An ancient burial chamber for saints, bishops and noblemen, a walk through these caves will give you a compelling insight into the city’s reverent religious faith.
Take a sip
Coffee is the lifeblood of Naples; so much so, the locals have turned the preparation of the perfect cup into an art form. Sip in style at Caffè Gambrinus on Piazza Trieste – a grand, art deco space that was a favourite of writer Oscar Wilde. For a quick drink on the go, head to Il Vero bar del Professore where the old-school baristas serve up over 60 different types of coffee.

Eating and drinking
Do as the locals do and grab street food on the go – pizza, risotto balls and deep-fried seafood are all specialities. At night, head to the Chiaia district for an upmarket scene of aperitivo cocktails and nibbles, or for a more relaxed affair, the boho vibe of Piazza Bellini should fit the bill.

Things get a little more glam at the Galleria Umberto – a grand, glass-roofed arcade housing swanky designer boutiques.
