Private Visit to the Royal Palace of Caserta
Nestled approximately 20 miles (32 km) north of Naples lies one of the world's most extensive royal residences, a remarkable illustration of Baroque artistry: the Reggia di Caserta. Constructed in the 18th century by the Bourbon dynasty, who were the Spanish monarchs in control of what is now Italy, this Royal Palace encompasses 1200 rooms amidst splendid gardens. Upon arrival, you'll meet your guide and secure your entrance tickets before embarking on a journey into its intriguing past.
As you explore the various rooms within the Royal Palace, take in the refined interior design that reflects the opulence and splendor of its former residents. The architecture and decor of the Reggia di Caserta, influenced by the Palace of Versailles, showcases a blend of Baroque, Neoclassical, and Pompeiian styles, the latter inspired by the rediscovery of the ancient city during the palace's construction.
Your guide will share captivating stories of the monarchs who made Caserta their residence while you wander through the Palatine Chapel, one of the artistic highlights of the palace, the royal apartments, and even the theatre!
