Naples and Campania - cities, islands, ruins and secret trails
Campania brings together the intense street life of Naples, the glamour and nature of its islands, the vertical villages of the Amalfi Coast and the quieter history of Salerno and Cilento. Use the city and coast as a framework, then leave time for ruins, caves, thermal water and less obvious paths.
In a nutshell: Use Naples and the Amalfi Coast for the regional overview, planning for logistics, and Pompeii and Capri for a focused route. Choose Naples and the islands, Sanità and Capodimonte, the western seafront, Campi Flegrei, Salerno and Cilento, or Campania outdoors by interest, then continue into the detailed Naples, archaeology and Campi Flegrei, islands and coast, and Salerno and Cilento chapters.
