It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by Naples’ teeming historic center, so for a fun break, hop on the city’s Funicolare Centrale and retreat uphill to the more staid hilltop neighborhood of Vomero. The funicular line stops near Piazza Vanvitelli, home to shops, restaurants, and views stretching over the city rooftops to the waters of the Mediterranean.
You can catch the funicular after a guided walking or Segway tour of Naples that includes famous sights like Piazza del Gesù, the Duomo, the Church of Santa Chiara, and Via San Gregorio Armeno. One of Naples’ most characteristic features is its cuisine, and many tours combine sightseeing with pizza and pastry breaks.
