As well as passing a few days in Naples, marvelling at this busy and chaotic city, Caserta is a nice divertion, only 22Km away to the north. In this town there is the Bourbon Grand Palace. This palace, known as the Reggia di Caserta after Pompeii, is Italy’s most visited historical monument. A walk around the vast gardens (3Km long!), is recommended, especially the fountain of Diana and the English Garden.

Also worth a visit are Baia, Pozzioli and Cuma.

There are many ways to get around. Car hire widely available and the Ferrovia Cumana (train service) stops at Pozzuoli, Baia and Cuma.
