  This stunning Mediterranean city is enjoying a new-found self-confidence. Recent years have seen a dramatic reclamation of its heritage, as piazze that once functioned as car parks have been restored to their original glory in a clean-up process that is almost complete. Naples today is once again recognisable as the place that drew the Grand Tourists with its unique combination of outstanding beauty and overtones of mythology. But the bustle, the street-life, the numerous cafes, bars and restaurants remain. The guide will also take you beyond the city to explore the best of the Amalfi coast, the town of Sorrento, the islands of Capri, Ischia and Procida and the ancient sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
