Italy, Group trip planner
Loud, cash-heavy, and the only Italian city where Roman rules do not apply.
Naples is the cash capital of Italy, expect 50 percent of small pizzerie and trattorie to refuse cards entirely. Pull €200 to €300 per person from a bank Bancomat on arrival. The pizza here is half the price of Rome and twice as good; €5 buys a margherita from Da Michele, Sorbillo, or Di Matteo. Traffic does not stop for pedestrians, you walk into it with conviction and the scooters flow around you. Pickpockets work the Via Toledo strip and the metro to Pompeii, keep your phone in a front pocket. Do not order anything called 'spaghetti bolognese' here, it does not exist.
Not the headlines. The spots Napleslocals reach for after the famous ones are done, and that Agoroam quietly seeds into your group's deck when you start planning.
Working-class quarter the food writers have rediscovered. Eat sfogliatella at Pasticceria Poppella.
A WWII shelter, royal escape tunnel, and seized-Vespas dump in one. Books out for groups.
The Veiled Christ sculpture, 20 minutes inside, mind-bending up close. Book a slot online.
The 1860 cafe where the resistance writers drank. Espresso for €1.30 if you stand.
Smaller, cheaper, no day-tripper buses. The fishing port is the photo nobody has on their feed.
April to early June and late September to early November. August is hot, full of Italians on holiday, and Pompeii is unbearable. December is mild and gloriously empty.
Safer than the reputation, dumber than Rome. Pickpocket-aware on the metro (especially line 2 toward Pompeii) and the Via Toledo shopping strip. Do not flash phones at intersections, scooter-snatchers do exist. The Spanish Quarter at night is fine in groups; the Sanità is fine in daylight and exceptional for food.
Yes. Naples is the protected origin (DOP, AVPN) of pizza and the dough hydration, fior di latte, and 60-second wood-fire bake produce a product Rome cannot match. The trick is to skip the Da Michele queue, walk to Di Matteo or Concettina ai Tre Santi instead, equally good, half the wait.
Both, on separate days. Pompeii is 35 minutes on the Circumvesuviana train (€3.20, run-down but works), go at 8:30am with hat and water. Capri is the ferry from Beverello, €25 return, do not book the Blue Grotto package, take a private boat instead and skip the queue.
Free for the first trip. Everyone votes. The AI does the boring half.
