Naples view from the sea

Posillipo and Marechiaro

Arrival in Posillipo, the beginning of the guided tour that will lead us to the discovery of the Archaeological Park of ancient Pausylipon. The itinerary, extremely fascinating and suggestive, starts from the access located at the end of the descent Coroglio, where the monumental Cave of Seiano opens: an artificial tunnel that crosses with a tunnel of about 770 meters the tufa hill of Posillipo joining the area of Bagnoli and Phlegraean Fields with the valley of Gaiola. The path of the long ancient passage, excavated about two millennia ago and reinforced in the Bourbon era, winds through the fascinating dim light of the tunnel crossed at the end by the blazing light that radiates from the side tunnels overlooking the beautiful coves that offer a breathtaking view. After the cave you reach, in the area of the villa that Vedio Pollione, rich Roman knight tied to Octavian Augustus, wanted to call with a Greek designation of origin "Pausylipon", ie "place that stops the troubles", thus admirably describing the enchantment and beauty of the site called Posillipo.  Continue to Marechiaro, with comfortable minibuses down to embark for our tour by sea, thanks to the boatmen of Marechiaro will begin our boat tour from the ridge of Posillipo, stops at the submerged park of Gaiola, the Palace of Spirits, the cave of your parents, the cave of corals and the natural amphitheater of Trentaremi.  Lunch with seafood specialties at the renowned Al Faro restaurant in Marechiaro.   End of services.
