Car Hire in Naples North - Mini guide to Naples North

Founded by the Ancient Greeks, Naples offers its visitors romance, beauty and passion. The 18th century writer Goethe once wrote,“Naples is a paradise.” Each year, thousands of visitors journey to Italy’s second largest metropolitan area to explore its rich culture and history. Naples has many areas to choose from when selecting accommodation. Within the city’s northern suburbs, such as Soccavo, there are many hotels which are suitable for visitors.

Soccavo, positioned just north west of Naples’ historic city centre, is well-equipped with many amenities available, including: cafés, bars and restaurants. Its strategic position on the outskirts of Naples makes it a perfect base for exploring southern Italy. While buses and trains are available in Naples, they are by no means extensive and may often be time-consuming and restrictive. Those exploring the area independently are urged to use a car hire service, available at: Via Epomeo 257.

Naples historic city centre is less than twenty minutes by car from the northern suburbs. The city’s harbour offers breathtaking views across the bay as well as a number of traditional pizzerias and seafood restaurants. Perhaps what is most memorable about Naples is not the city itself, rather what is beneath it. Just thirty metres below ground level are a series of tunnels, cisterns and catacombs, developed by the Greeks and the Romans. From Via dei Tribunali, in the historic quarter, visitors can explore a section of this extensive underground network.

Just south from Naples are some of Italy’s most breathtaking locations, including the world-famous volcano, Mount Vesuvius. A national park surrounds this ever-active, yet non-destructive volcano. Sorrento and the stunning Amalfi coast are just an hour from the northern suburbs of Naples by car. The small town of Sorrento is perfect for taking in stunning views of the islands Capri, Procida and Ischia.
