We don't want to miss it, and we did last time!
for the absolute best pizza you will ever eat try this place :
Antica Pizzeria SRL 'Da Michele'
Via Cesare Sersal
1/3 (Angolo Via P Colleta)
80100 Naples
Italy
It is a very unpretencious pizza house but by far the best pizza you will ever experience. Get there early to avoid the queue waiting outside with ticket in hand awaiting their turn. There isn't a massive choice of pizza's in fact there are 2 only if i recall. One margarita, ( tomato and basil ) and a marinara which is basically the margarita with cheese. The pizzas are wood fired. simple and superb. Choice of drinks are beer, wine and soft drink. No big long wine list at all. I think we paid around 4 euro for a pizza. Great value.
I'm can't recall how far it is from the pier but ask anyone in Naples about Da Michele and they will all know it. It is very famous. Hopefully you get to experience a pizza from one of the oldest, authentic pizza houses in Italy.
Margherita means Daisy and in 1889 the Pizza was created and named after Margherita of Savoy wife and consort (and first cousin) of Humbert 1. Otherwise known as Umberto 1 King of Italy from 1878 to 1900.
Umberto was killed by an anarchist.

Take a city tour on a open topped double-decker bus. Various offers to see different sides of the city with a "hop on, hop off” system which allows the tourist to get on and off along the route.

The shop is called "Waiting Lounge", the address is Via Santa Caterina a Chiaia, 19 (Piazza dei Martiri).
It's not only an hairdresser (both for men and women) and not only a beauty parlour.
Get a haircut, a massage, or any other relaxing treatment, enjoy the soft atmosphere and the lounge music while sipping a coffe or a Campari. Let the time flow and forget about it.
In the real centre of Naples an oasis of calm and silence.
Waiters with black ties serving espresso and rich decadent cakes - this was the cafe which served la creme de la creme of Neapolitan society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Now you'll see plenty of tourists here, but if you come by in the evening you may also see some of the local cognoscenti. And the coffee is great!
This is the map that is placed on the left from Gambrius. It'll help you get around... I think...
Anyways! This is a map. :))
But seriously, if you do not have a guide, it is wise to have a map!
The volcano Solfatara lies from almost 4000 years in the center of Campi Flegrei. It continues to offer the show of an active volcanic area. Once you reach the crater, you can see raising exhalations sulfurees similar to clouds of vapour; the wall at the base shows a typical red-brown coloration, given by the substances contained in the fumaroles.
After the south-oriental slope, there is a small masonry, wrapped by the vapours of the fumarola called Bocca Grande: it’s an old Volcanological Observatory set up by the Borbone Royal family. Today it’s one of the stations of overseeing and measurement of the temperature, as well as of the chemical composition of the gaseous emanations.
According to ancient legends, the Solfatara has been theater of enterprises of Centaurs, Giants and Cyclopses, that disembarked together with the first Greek navigators. According to Omero, some travelling companions of Ulisse, sent in patrol, met king Antifate's daughter that led them to the king; immediately the Giants showed hostility toward foreigners and there was a great battle among the gods and the Giants. The place of the battle was all fire and flames: from here the name Flegrea (ardent earth); the sea, the mountains and the same cracks of the earth brought engraved the signs of that clash; so the gods decided that, from that moment, to remember this battle, those earths continued to burn for all through the years.
Today everything is still surrounded by a fascinating atmosphere. The visitor entering the Solfatara has the perception of beeing inside a boiling crater that almost seems on the point to explode.
The site also involves for its geophysical particularity that doesn't have equal in the world.
