Tuesday, 12 September, 2023
Day 1: Arrive in Naples

Everything is louder, crazier, and tastier in Naples. The city constantly feels like it’s moving at 100 miles per hour, with rushing motorbikes and the mayhem of people as they go about their day. But once you sit down underneath a frescoed cupola, at a table in a candlelit pizzeria, or with an espresso as you look over the Mediterranean, everything in Naples comes to a stop for that moment so you can fully savor it.

Enjoy the first afternoon at your own pace, to rest and recharge from the flight.
Below are some things you might enjoy this afternoon.

🏺
Optional: Visit the Ipogeo dei Cristallini

The Ipogeo dei Cristallini is a rare and incredible testament to Hellenic painting and architecture, located in the heart of the Sanità-Vergini district.
Conveniently located next to your hotel, it is certainly worth a visit in the afternoon.

This is a recommendation; no booking has been made by scenset.

🍦
Suggested Afternoon Activities

Visit the Galleria Borbonica or the Catacombe di San Gennaro or simply take a stroll by the port to try your first truly Italian gelato!

This is a recommendation, no booking has been made by the scenset

🍕
Pizza in Naples

Head into the old town of Naples to its most awarded pizzeria: Gino Sorbillo. Sorbillo is buried in a maze of narrow streets in the historical heart of the city, serving pizzas – ranging from the simple and traditional to the elaborate and creative – that are simply glorious and expertly prepared by some of the best Italian pizzaioli. You’ll find all the classics here – margherita, bianca al cotto (ham and cheese), calzone and more.

This is a recommendation, no booking has been made by scenset

🛎️
Check in

Check in at Casa d'Anna begins in the afternoon. A request for earlier check-in has been made, but it cannot be guaranteed due to high season and likely full booking.

  • The hotel will be happy to keep your bags while you are out exploring
Your Stay: Casa d'Anna

Why we love it for you: A baroque mansion from the early 1500s, finely restored and a few steps from the Archaeological Museum; this is the ideal address for an authentic experience of Neapolitan life thanks to its position in the lively local market of Via Virgins and the surrounding architectural masterpieces such as the Spanish palace and the precious Ipogeo dei Cristallini archaeological site.

Day 3: Buongiorno Amalfi!

While most of Italy is about sightseeing, there’s nothing to visit per se on the Amalfi Coast. Instead of lavish churches and ancient monuments, the rugged coastline is the sight, best enjoyed from a hilltop al fresco restaurant, the bow of a yacht, or inside your car while navigating one of the world’s most scenic drives. Amalfi is a luxurious destination with a humble past, where glitzy villas still intermingle with sleepy fishing villages and bucolic lemon orchards

With your 9.60 meter Gozzo-style boat, you can choose whether to split your day between Capri and Positano or spend the full day exploring Capri - it's totally up to you!

Back on board, enjoy a tour around the island for a memorable view of the dramatic tree-topped cliffs and imposing Faraglioni rocks.

Disembarking in Capri

Capri is full of gorgeous boutique stores and galleries; a blast to walk through. We also recommend going to Anacapri and Montesolano while you are there to avoid the crowds! You can use taxis and there is also a cable car for Montesolano. It is much quieter up there and the views get better and better!

🚗
Private Transfer

After the boating activity, a driver will greet you at the disembarkation location and transport you back to the hotel.

Your Stay: Maison La Minervetta

Why we love it for you: Perched on the ridge overlooking the sea, this is the ideal location for wide-open views of the Mediterranean Sea. A private whitewashed staircase leads to the small fishing village down below, and every turn is somehow more breathtaking than the last.

Here, mountains dive into the sea, creating a dramatic vertical scenset of dizzying cliffs crowned by verdant gardens, sweet-scented citrus fruit orchards, and exquisite pastel-hued villages. You'll visit towns like Amalfi, Positano, and Ravello, each charming in its unique way.
