About this activity

The Royal Palace at Caserta spreads out before observers as a monumental complex and, with its five floors, stands 118 feet tall. It is constructed mostly in brick while the first two floors are laid with travertine. The entire structure is crowned by a very wide central dome. Those who see its inside are almost always astonished by its continuous succession of stuccoes, reliefs, frescoes, sulptures, flooring and inlays.

Naples is one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities, spilling down the hillside towards its wonderful Bay. Your guide will lead you through the city’s winding streets, and will include a visit to the city’s incredible Archaeological Museum, filled with masterpieces from ancient Rome such as the Farnese Bull and Farnese Hercules. Visit also the historic center: Castle Maschio Angioino, Royal Palace, Plebiscito square and Castle dell’Ovo on the scenic sea-promenade (exterior only).

Itinerary

Reggia di Caserta

2 h 30 min Admission included

The Royal Palace at Caserta and its park, inserted as one of the 55 Italian UNESCO World Heritage Sites in 1997, are treasures of truly incomparable splendor.

Commissioned by Charles III of Bourbon in the 1700s, Luigi Vanvitelli planned this palace, a triumph of the Italian Baroque and one of the most famous and important works by the Neapolitan architect.

The sumptuous palace is an ideal and harmonious fusion of two other royal residences: the Royal Palace at Versailles and the Escorial Palace in Madrid.
