Time Out Naples also goes 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. Color photos and maps throughout enhance the reader's experience.

Time Out Naples...T.O. Does It Once Again

Naples is the latest addition to my Time Out guides. Including New York, Paris, Frankfurt, Bombay and Madrid, I've found all of Time Out's publications to be highly dependable for what's happening.

Not only does the Naples guide provide highlights of Naples area history, its recommendations for the must-see eateries and sights are spot on. My recent trip took me to the area for 7 days for a wedding, but using this guide let me make the most of every free moment I had.

Only thing that is ever short-changed(as is the case with many guides) are the little out of the way places that one simple stumbles upon, are incredibly cool and actually make the tourist feel like they've stepped out of the controlled Disney-theme presentation of many cities by many guides.

This being said, I find that Time Out is always a reliable source for a well rounded experience, particularly if one wants to get a feel for what the local life is like.

An excellent guide

This is a thorough neighborhood-by-neighborhood guide of Naples. The food recommendations are all excellent, as are the maps and the suggested itineraries. The sections on historical and cultural background are also very informative and well-written. I stayed in Naples for over a week and was pleased to find that this book provided enough in-depth recommendations to go beyond the usual rapid-fire tourist itineraries. I have sought out other Time Out city guides based on my experience with this book.
