Planning your trip to Naples
Best time to visit
April to June and September to October bring warm weather that suits both the city and trips out to the coast and the islands. July and August are hot and crowded along the coast; winter is mild and quiet, though some island and coastal services run less often.
How many days you need
Two to three days covers the historic center, the archaeological museum and a trip to Pompeii or Herculaneum. Many visitors add several more days for the Amalfi Coast, Sorrento, Capri or Procida.
Getting around
The historic center is dense and best explored on foot. The metro and funiculars help with the hills, and the Circumvesuviana train runs to Pompeii, Herculaneum and Sorrento. Ferries and hydrofoils from the port connect to Capri, Ischia and Procida. Traffic is intense, so driving in the city is not recommended.
What to skip
Keep phones and wallets secure in crowded spots, on busy trains and around the main station. Unofficial taxis at the station and port are best avoided; use licensed taxis or agree on a fixed fare before setting off.
