I'm looking for 2 to 4 TripMates, ladies and dudes of all ages over 18 are welcome! If you are an enthusiast of arts, architecture, history, geography, or cuisine, or you say you love all of them, then don't miss it! We will spend around 2 days in the city of Naples, visiting its iconic sites, museums, and neighbourhoods, trying authentic Neapolitan food; taking photos from impressive viewpoints; appreciating the artworks, architecture, and relics of different periods of the city; and chasing the trace from of the ancient Greeks to Diego Maradona; feeding our stomaches, eyes, and brains! ๐Ÿคฉ If lucky and energetic enough, we could also buy the freshest ingredients in the morning from the local market and enjoy cooking in our well-equipped kitchen. The third day we will spend around Mount Vesuvio ๐ŸŒ‹, visiting the relics of Pompeii, and Herculaneum, climbing up to the volcano (there are transportations taking visitors close to the top), and again, seeing the stunning Neapolitan coast from the volcano. ๐ŸŒ… On the last day of our trip, we will discover the well-known magnificent Roman relics of Pompeii! ๐Ÿ› We will explore the Forum, walk Via dell'Abbondanza, see the Amphitheater, and witness the Garden of the Fugitives (if open). And relax in the Teatro Grande, which is my favourite attraction in Pompeii. After the trip, we can decide whether to have dinner in Pompeii or return to Naples. ๐Ÿ The daily cost includes accommodation, travel guide, photography, etc. Entrance fees and transportation are not listed as covered items in case some people prefer more flexibility. However, I know some nice tourist passes for visiting attractions and museums and taking local transportation, if some people want them, I can assist with the booking. ๐Ÿ˜ Before our trip starts, I will arrive in Naples beforehand and keep you updated. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

About me! Hanzhe hails from Limerick! I'm a Chinese lad living and working in Ireland who enjoys reading, cooking, gym, and of course travelling! ๐Ÿผ I graduated with an M.A. in International Tourism from the University of Limerick and am currently working for a SaaS company. I'd never travelled abroad until I went to study in the UK 10 years ago, since then, I've travelled to almost 30 countries and regions across Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Before I travel to different countries and cities, I always research their geography, history, people, culture, etc., comparing with my previous imagination of the destination; and then travel there to see by person the scenery and people told by words, images, and stories; feel the real vibe at the destination, broaden my perspectives, and complement my understanding on this planet and its people. I like an old Chinese proverb that "It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books". A good trip is relaxing and enjoyable, but it can also sharpen our wisdom. Every destination has its beauty and story, and each of them would enrich travellers like you and me. When I was on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, a line jumped to my mind, "The time is the longest river, and the world is the broadest canvas". May we meet somewhere on this beautiful planet.๐Ÿ˜Š

Details about the accommodation: We will stay in a lovely apartment located in the beating heart of Naples' historic center and within a 10-minute' walk to the port. It is an ideal solution for us to explore this magical city and uncover its natural theatricality. The location is in one of the best neighborhoods in Naples and close to most attractions of the city! The apartment is situated on the first floor of a prestigious historical building and boasts two cozy terraces where we are free to enjoy a break finding peace right in the middle of the historical centre. The apartment is fully equipped with two bathrooms, a kitchen, air conditioning, a washing machine, etc. We have one bedroom with a double bed, the other with a double bed and sofa bed, and also a big sofa bed in the living room, you can pick your favourite in accordance of first come, first serve. Just a reminder that there could be 4 to 5 (including myself) in the squad, so it would help if you were also willing to share your space; however, a single room can be arranged, but the prices would differ. Reach me for more info on our lovely apartment during the stay ๐Ÿ˜Ž
