Ciao, travelers! I’m Rileigh, the owner of Travel Mellow, and I’m thrilled to share my personalized itinerary for a 2-week trip to Naples, Italy during the winter season. Having lived in Italy for 2 years, I’ve gained a deep appreciation for the country’s rich culture, history, and cuisine. This itinerary is designed to help you experience the authentic side of Naples and its surroundings, while avoiding the typical tourist traps.

Day 1: Exploring the Historic Heart of Naples

Kick off your Italian adventure by immersing yourself in the vibrant historic center of Naples. Stroll through the iconic Spaccanapoli street, lined with churches, shops, and bustling cafes. Visit the stunning Piazza del Gesù and the captivating Cappella Sansevero, known for its remarkable sculptures. In the afternoon, explore the Naples National Archaeological Museum, which houses an impressive collection of ancient Roman artifacts. For dinner, I recommend Da Michele or Di Matteo for an authentic Neapolitan pizza experience.

Day 2: Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius

Today, embark on a journey back in time by visiting the ancient ruins of Pompeii. Explore the remarkably preserved streets, homes, and public buildings that were buried under volcanic ash nearly 2,000 years ago. After Pompeii, consider hiking to the top of Mount Vesuvius for breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples. For a delicious lunch, try one of the local restaurants in Pompeii serving traditional Campanian cuisine.
