Day one of your Italian adventure…
Pick up from the airport and transfer to the hotel, but first…..

Throw your bags in the back on the van and we will start with a tour of historic city of Naples. The city of Naples is unique, it’s fast, it’s busy, it’s colourful but we will have Nicola our guide for the week who will show us around. There isn’t anything he doesn’t know about Naples and his home town in Castellabate. He’s passionate, intelligent and funny – what more do we want!

We will see the Ca****la San Severo. The Ca****la Sansevero (also known as the Ca****la Sansevero de’ Sangri or Pietatella) is a chapel located in the historic center of Naples. The chapel is more properly named the Chapel of Santa Maria della Pietà. It contains works of Rococo – art by some of the leading Italian artists of the 18th century

After the art we eat a classic Neopolitan pizza. It’s named in honour of Queen Margherita of Savoy. When she visited Naples in 1889 with King Umberto a pizza was baked especially for them and its colours mirrored those of the Italian flag: red (tomatoes), white (mozzarella), and green (basil leaves). But don’t worry if your prefer something else on your pizza that can be arranged too.

After we eat we head off to the accommodation, taking in the scenery along the way. On arrival – unpack, unwind and take in the view from your room.

Meet at 5.00 pm for drinks on the hotel terrace – Introductions from Bernadette and Hazel. Intro from guests.

Dinner and drinks.

You are welcome to join Bernadette and Hazel for dinner around 8.
