Our guide, Walter, was truly excellent: both in terms of his empathy with the tour participants and, above all, his expertise. The only drawback—which wasn’t the organization’s fault—was the extreme heat, which obviously prevented us from spending much time in the various areas to explore them in greater depth.

The Caserta Palace was a neat addition to our Rome/Naples siteseeing. I most enjoyed seeing the items that had actually been used by people who had lived there like the beds, chandeliers, books, chairs, etc. We also enjoyed seeing the grandeur of the marble structures, statues, the chapel, etc. There was a weird modern art showing with contemporary pieces randomly strewn about the castle which felt out of place and distracting - would have preferred those be displayed together in one place rather than interrupting the flow of the historic items. And the "gardens" were mostly long hot stretches of grass with little in the way of statues, fountains or manicured hedges, flowers or palm trees as compared to Versailles. Best to wait in line for the €3 crowded shuttle to take you past the empty stretch to the end where there is more to see, particularly given the current heat wave. But it was neat to see a different city, and example of the life, wealth and politics of European aristocracy. Also the cafe had tasty food & refreshments which were greatly appreciated.

It was a truly fascinating tour. Our guide, Valter, treated us like old friends, combining professionalism with engaging commentary throughout the visit. He didn’t bore us with lists of dates and names that might have made the tour tedious, but instead fostered a two-way discussion about the main events, including some anecdotes that made the tour truly priceless. His thorough knowledge of the subject matter and his down-to-earth manner made the tour top-notch. Two hours flew by without us even noticing. Kudos to the organizers, but above all, kudos to Valter for his professionalism.

Experience the best of Caserta with access to both the opulent Royal Apartments and the sprawling Royal Park.

Step into the lavish Royal Apartments, where gilded ceilings, intricate frescoes, and dazzling chandeliers set the scene for regal splendor.

Wander through 120 hectares of nature's best—think cascading waterfalls, serene fountains, and lush greenery straight out of a royal fairytale.

Take your visit up a notch with an optional audio guide, available in multiple languages, for a deeper dive into history.

The Royal Palace of Caserta is an absolute masterpiece that takes your breath away. The royal apartments are indescribably opulent and elegant, but what truly captures your heart are the gardens: an endless vista of fountains and sculptures that culminates in the spectacular waterfall. It’s a must-see destination that’s every bit as impressive as Versailles—if not more so. A source of Italian pride that you absolutely must visit!

We never would have expected to see such a marvel. The Royal Palace of Caserta is perfectly preserved; the furnishings, paintings, and decorative items are splendid and can be viewed up close. The gardens are beautifully maintained, and the staff are very helpful and kind.

Bigger the palace, bigger the king

The Bourbons of Naples could be considered the overlords of the lands. Step inside their extravagantly furnished home and be baffled by an enormous collection of paintings, drawings, frescoes, books, bronzes, and other objects all around the Royal Apartments. Stop by the Grand Staircase of Honor, the neo-classical Royal Palatine Chapel, the spectacular horse-shoe-shaped Royal Court Theatre, the inspiring Terrae Motus Collection, and another picture gallery showcasing paintings that date back to the 16th century AD.

The beautiful Royal Park

Designed using an innovative ‘telescope effect’, the park is a beautiful space full of fountains, statues, and greenery. Visit the park to check out the French-inspired ‘Parterre’, the majestic Fountain of the Three Dolphins, the godly Fountain of Aeolus, the Fountain of Ceres, and many more wonderful cascades. Stop by the fascinating English Garden, the charming San Leucio Belvedere, and the Carolino Aqueduct, and discover the wildlife sanctuary at San Silvestro Oasis.

What to bring

Have entry tickets and a photocopy of your ID ready for a smooth check-in.

Be prepared for varying weather conditions—inside the palace and out in the gardens, it can get chilly, so pack accordingly.

Comfortable shoes are a must for walking, and don't forget water for hydration and sun protection.

What's not allowed

Leave food, drinks, drones, sharp metallic objects, alcohol, and motorized vehicles behind—they aren’t allowed inside.

Pets (except guide dogs), strollers, large bags, backpacks over 40 x 30 x 10 cm, and umbrellas are prohibited. You can check bulky items in the free cloakroom at the entrance.

Flash photography is forbidden inside, and the dress code requires appropriate attire (no skimpy or indecent clothing).

Accessibility

The palace is wheelchair accessible with ramps and elevators available.

Guide dogs are allowed inside.

Accessible parking spaces are near the entrance for easy access.

Additional information

The Royal Palace of Caserta is closed on Tuesdays, New Year’s Day (January 1), and Christmas Day (December 25).

Check train schedules in advance for a timely trip, as the train from Naples to Caserta takes about 40 minutes, followed by a 5-10 minute walk to the palace.
