How to spend less

  • Pizza a portafoglio (folded, takeaway) from a hole-in-the-wall costs a third of a sit-down margherita and is often just as good
  • First Sunday of the month is free entry at Pompeii, Herculaneum and most state museums including MANN
  • Buy the Campania Artecard if doing 3+ paid sites plus transport, it bundles entry and Circumvesuviana/metro rides
  • Skip the taxi from Napoli Centrale to the historic center, it's a 15-minute walk or one metro stop
