Board your train and, in just over an hour, arrive in Caserta refreshed and ready to explore. Relax in modern, spacious carriages and admire the scenic Italian countryside along the way.
Upon arrival, head straight to the Royal Palace of Caserta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Europe’s most magnificent royal residences. Built in the 18th century for the Bourbon kings of Naples, the palace boasts over 1,200 rooms filled with exquisite frescoes, intricate details, and royal furnishings.
Stroll through the grand Palazzo Reale, marveling at its opulent interiors, before stepping outside into the vast gardens, a masterpiece of landscape design. With fountains, cascading waterfalls, and perfectly manicured lawns stretching over 120 hectares, the grounds are ideal for a tranquil walk or even a relaxing picnic.
Don’t miss the palace park, home to hidden pathways, lakes, and sculptures that rival the palace’s beauty. Each hall and garden corner evokes the elegance and artistry of a bygone royal era.
After your visit, enjoy the local flavors of Caserta at a nearby trattoria. Indulge in traditional Neapolitan pizza, fresh mozzarella di bufala, or the famous casatiello - a savory bread filled with cheese and cured meats. Pair your meal with a glass of Campania wine for an authentic regional experience.
Before returning to Rome, take a stroll through Caserta’s charming town center, with its peaceful streets, pretty squares, and welcoming cafés - perfect for a final coffee before your journey back.
