Naples (Napoli), on Italy’s southern coast, is raw, vibrant, and layered. It is a city where pizza was born, where alleyways brim with artisan life, and where the mass of Mount Vesuvius looms over the Bay of Naples.
The historic center, among the largest in Europe, pulses with narrow lanes, baroque churches, piazzas, and street markets spilling lemons, seafood, and artisan goods. The waterfront promenade features castles, sea breeze, and views across bay to Mount Vesuvius and Capri. Museums like the National Archaeological Museum hold treasures from Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Day-trips radiate outward: Pompeii ruins, Herculaneum, Amalfi Coast, and island escapes. Coastal roads climb and curve in dramatic folds. The soundtrack is scooters, café chatter, street life, and distant waves.
With Atlas Tours, your Naples plan includes walking in the old city, museum stops, Vesuvius views or day excursions, lodging near the core or bay, and pacing to absorb flavor and intensity. Whether drawn to food, ruins, or Mediterranean life, Naples welcomes you into southern Italy’s bold and complicated heart.
