Excursions on Ischia and in the Bay of Naples with Ischia Red Carpet

Caldoglaciale by Sunlux Viaggi organises tours and excursions from the island of Ischia with the Ischia Red Carpet assistance service: selected guides, hotel transfers, boat crossings and organised entrance tickets, with a local contact on the island since 2001. The experiences cover the sea of the Bay of Naples — Capri, the Amalfi Coast, Procida — the Campania inland with Naples, Pompeii and the Royal Palace of Caserta, Ischia's iconic sights such as the Aragonese Castle and La Mortella Gardens, and the hiking trails of Mount Epomeo.

Four ways to discover Ischia and the Bay of Naples

Our excursions are organised into four categories, designed to match different interests during the same stay. Sea excursions go to Capri, the Amalfi Coast and Procida: destinations reachable in a day by boat from the island's main harbours, with no need to arrange an overnight stay away from Ischia. Land excursions stay on the island itself, exploring the Aragonese Castle, La Mortella Gardens and the Nitrodi Spring, plus a panoramic bus tour of the six municipalities. Trips to the Campania inland reach Naples, Pompeii and the Royal Palace of Caserta, departing in the morning by hydrofoil and returning the same day. Finally, the hiking routes cross Ischia's wilder side — Mount Epomeo, the craters of the Cretaio Woods, the coastal trails towards Sant'Angelo — for those looking for the island's volcanic nature away from the beaches.

Which excursion to choose

Guests staying a full week naturally alternate the four types of experience: a day at sea in Capri or on the Amalfi Coast, a more demanding trip to Pompeii or Naples, an afternoon of hiking on Mount Epomeo or towards Sorgeto Bay, and a quieter visit to the Aragonese Castle or La Mortella Gardens. For those with only a few days, it's worth choosing based on what you already know of the Bay of Naples: if you've already been to Capri, go for Procida or the Amalfi Coast instead; if you want to stay on the island, choose between the Aragonese Castle, hiking and the thermal parks; families with children will find the island boat tour and the Procida visit shorter and physically easier than the inland trips or the medium-difficulty hikes.

How to book an excursion on Ischia

Choose the tour, send your request with your preferred date, and we'll confirm availability, meeting point and details within 24 hours: no online payment, you pay on the spot. Departures leave from the island's main harbours and squares (Forio, Lacco Ameno, Casamicciola, Ischia Porto), and many excursions include hotel pick-up — ideal if you're staying at one of the properties selected by Caldoglaciale on Ischia. Sea excursions and trips to the Campania inland run on fixed days of the week, so it's worth checking available dates already when booking your stay, especially if you're travelling on a short itinerary.
