Naples is a cultural center filled with classical Greek and Roman style architecture and bursting with extraordinary art, from modern street murals to ancient works. Take a tour through the city itself, where you can enjoy an authentic slice of Neapolitan pizza as you stroll along cobblestone streets, or branch out to nearby locales for some can't-miss excursions. Naples is a jumping-off point for outings to Pompeii, a village preserved in ash from the A.D. 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius-the still-active volcano that serves as a backdrop for Naples-as well as treks to the Amalfi Coast, one of the most breathtaking shorelines in the world. At the entrancing Isle of Capri, a short boat trip across the Gulf of Naples, you can take a chairlift to the islet's highest point for bird's-eye views or tour the famed Blue Grotto natural sea cave.
