What do you do in one of Europe’s largest and oldest cities? Though Naples sightseeing is the most obvious answer, there are even more truly exciting things to do in Naples. In a city that lives history and art, you can explore the museums and discover art in old churches.
The historic ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum offer a fascinating peek into life in those times. You can catch a performance at San Claro Theatre, Europe’s oldest continuously running opera house, or simply lounge at one of the beaches. Here’s a handy list of some of the top things to do in Naples.
This legendary volcano is notorious for having wiped out life at Pompeii and Herculaneum. The behemoth sleeps for now. You can climb up its gentle slope and peer into the crater – an experience worth the climb of around 30 minutes. The magnificent views from the top are an added bonus.
Before being destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius, Pompeii was a highly evolved city. The temples of Apollo and Jupiter, the amphitheatre and the case del Fauno are fascinating. Opt for the Virtual Reality tour that will bring alive the ruins for a more interactive experience.
Include this in your Naples sightseeing itinerary for its unique appeal. Underneath the Historic Centre of Naples you will find the Napoli Sotterranea, a 2400-year-old world. This is where Naples was born. Take a guided tour that includes the Greek-Roman aqueduct and a Roman theatre. This is one of the best things to do in Naples.
