  • How Getting to Sorrento
    HOW GETTING TO SORRENTO: 1) For the people who arrive straight to Naples (Capodichino) airport From Capodichino airport you can get to Sorrento in several ways: a) Airport-Sorrento Bus the best solution is taking a CURRERI VIAGGI (www.curreriviaggi.it) Capodichino-Sorrento bus, it is 10 € and it takes 75 min to get to Sorrento from Naples (Capodichino) airport ( 6 buses a day, every day, at 9 - 11 - 13 - 14.30 - 16,30 - 19,30). You can buy the ticket on the bus and you can take the bus in front of Arrival Hall. b) Bus + Train from the airport there is a public transport of Naples municipality AMN, called Alibus , whose times can be seen on-line (http://www.anm.it/Upload/RES/PDF/ORARI/Capodichino.pdf). The ticket is 3€, it leaves every 20 min, from 6,30 to 24,00 and you can go straight both to Naples centre and to Garibaldi square central station, whence you can get to Sorrento by Circumvesuviana train (local transport) in about 60 min. You can find the times on http://www.vesuviana.it/web/files/Napoli%20Sorrento%20A4.pdf. The Circumvesuviana station is at the lower floor of Central station, it is called Naples Garibaldi and it is well evident. The AMN bus stop at the airport is opposite the arrivals. c) Taxi If you want to get to Sorrento by taxi I suggest to take an official taxi by standing in a queue on the right, coming out of the airport, near the municipal police. The taxi is quite expensive, about 70/100 € and you have to pay the return too because the distance is over 50 Km.

  • Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Naples
    Sorrento, Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Naples 24 - 31 March 2019 from £1795.00 A tempting Spring break to Italy, relaxing in the mild climate of the Amalfi coast and the Bay of Naples. We will be based in Sorrento on the Amalfi coast for the first three nights, where we will visit the Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone. These are the classic Amalfi gardens laid out in terraces where umbrella pines and cypresses shade classical geometric beds edged with box and filled with modern flowers. The site of Villa Cimbrone on a cliff top promontory overlooking the sea is beyond compare. We will also take the ferry to the enchanting island of Capri and explore some of its captivating sights. We travel round the Bay of Naples, breaking our journey with visits to the unique archaeological wonders of Pompeii and Herculaneum, to the pulsating port of Naples itself. We travel out to the north of the city to spend a day at the impressive palace and gardens of La Caserta. This huge palace, with equally grand and impressive gardens, was constructed for the Bourbon Kings of Naples and on completion in the 18th century it was the largest royal residence in the world. Finally a day of art and archaeological treasures as we tour the hot-blooded city of Naples, rich with the aroma of Neapolitan cuisine. Itinerary Day 1 We depart by coach from York for Manchester Airport in time for our scheduled flight to Naples (provisional times 08.00/12.00). Upon arrival we will transfer to our hotel in Sorrento, where we will stay for the next three nights.

  • Herculaneum Archaeology
    I In this edition: Ercolano Meeting, June 2010 - report by Robert Fowler, Trustee Herculaneum: an Ancient Town in the Bay of Naples - Christopher Smith, Director of the British School in Rome Pompeii and the Roman Villa: Art and Culture around the Bay of Naples. Report on the exhibition by Carol Mattusch House of the Relief of Telephus, Herculaneum herculaneum archaeology herculaneum Society - Issue 12 Summer 2010 of the Friends Herculaneum the newsletter Suburban Baths, not normally open to the public, and a peak inside the Bourbon tunnels in the Basilica—this was The Third Herculaneum a particular treat, as one could see some quite breathtaking original frescoes in situ, untouched by any restoration. The Conference narrow space could accommodate only three or four tightly Robert Fowler squeezed people at a time. 2. 3. 4. The Suburban Baths 1. The Gardens of the Miglio d’Oro The Friends met 11–13 June for their third gathering in Campania since 2006, in what is now an established biennial tradition. For repeat attenders it felt like a reunion, while at the same time it was gratifying to welcome a good number of newcomers. For the first two meetings we resided in Naples (hence the First and Second ‘Naples’ Congresses), but for this one we moved out to Ercolano itself, a prospect made enticing by the opening of the four-star Miglio D’Oro hotel, a spectacular, done-over 18th-century villa which made up in atmosphere—especially the garden—what it (so far) lacks in abundance of staff (in some areas). The experiment was judged successful both for its convenience and for the benefit we were able to deliver to the local economy, not just the Miglio D’Oro but to B&Bs and local businesses.
