What to expect
Your guide will orient you at Capua's ancient amphitheater, contextualising Spartacus's story within the wider Roman period. After an hour or so there, you'll be driven to Caserta Palace. The structure itself is monumental—expect grand rooms, frescoed ceilings, and the architecture of Bourbon ambition. The real draw is outdoors: the gardens stretch far enough that most visitors use the shuttle for at least part of the route. The waterfall is the centrepiece, but there's plenty of woodland, formal paths, and follies to discover. Minimal climbing, so it suits most mobility levels.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes for garden walking; shuttle buses reduce fatigue if needed. No meals provided, so plan lunch beforehand or pack snacks. Service animals welcome. Infant seats available on request. The pace is leisurely—you're not rushing.
