Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. So many visitors ask us to furnish them with an itinerary for seeing the principal objects in Naples and its neighbourhood in a few days, that we present the following, which we have often executed, and so know that it is practical.<br><br>Leave Rome by mid-day express, arriving in Naples in time for dinner. Take the omnibus to the hotel.<br><br>First Day.<br><br>Visit the Museum at 9 a.m. Lunch at the restaurant in the Galleria Principe di Napoli, opposite, at 12.30. After lunch, take a cab to the station, in time for the 2 o'clock express for Pompeii, with a return ticket. After seeing the ruined city, return to Naples by the evening train.
