Venice to Napoli

My wife and I will be in Venice in May 2006. We then move on to Napoli but I'd prefer not to fly or go by train. I don't suppose there is anything like a day cruise between the two cities we can take? Would be unusual.

It would be extremely unusual because Venezia and Napoli are on opposite sides of Italy. Even if there were ships between them, it would take more than one day, because the ship would have to go all the way round the south of Italy.

I agree that the cities are on opposite sides. If it took a full day and a bit, that would be fine. Just really trying to avoid the inevitable, train from Venice to Naples. How many changeovers would there be, any idea?

I was tossing up on how to fit Venice into my trip which is mainly focused on Rome, Amalfi and Ischia, I didn't want to miss seeing Venice and didn't want to cut out any days anywhere else so we bit the bullet, went cheap on accommodation which paid for flights between Naples and Venice

Hi RD,

>...train from Venice to Naples.

Schedules (including intermediate stops and changes) are at www.trenitalia.com.

You can fly on www.alpieagles.com for 94E pp.

Assuming this isn't a troll...

You can also fly with Alitalia which is what we did in June. By the time we'd added on all the extra taxes, charges, etc, Alitalia was cheaper than Alpieagles; so worth checking both. I think we paid €99 for the 2 of us, one way.
