Gorgeous Italian city that's 'home of pizza' has Aperol Spritz for just 84p

Picture yourself sipping on Aperol Spritz, basking in the sunshine and preparing to tuck into some of the world's best pizza - all without having to break the bank.

Brits in search of 'la dolce vita' can get just that in the gorgeous city of Naples, which has been revealed as the cheapest destination for an Aperol in new research from eurochange, with an average cost of €2 (£1.54) for the beloved summer drink. According to the travel experts, you'll want to bookmark Cammarota Spritz, a "cool, no-frills Aperol-themed bar in the heart of the city" where you can even snap up an Aperol for 84p. They also recommend a trip to Spritzerò, another Aperol-themed bar in Naples, where spritzes come in at the €2 average.

Then of course, foodies won't be disappointed in Naples - it is hailed as the birthplace of pizza after all. In fact, you'll be spoiled for choice from restaurants to food stalls where you can find some of the world's best pizza (just don't bring up the 'does pineapple belong on a pizza' debate as it's a very divisive issue amongst locals!).

There's plenty more than just food to Naples. The breathtaking spot was ranked as one of Europe's best weekend breaks earlier this year by Lonely Planet, thanks to the abundance of attractions, historic buildings and the vibrant nightlife. The travel insiders explained: "Italy's third-largest city, Naples is both chaotic and cultured, opulent and gritty, exuberant and understated, with architectural gems around every corner."

Meanwhile history fans will be delighted to know that the ancient city of Pompeii, famously destroyed when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79AD, is just a half hour train journey away, making Naples a great base from which to go exploring.

The good news for Brits is that it's fairly easy to get to the Italian city when you're on a budget. Skyscanner has found direct flights from £42 with the likes of Ryanair and easyJet, while Hotels.com has stays from £33 a night in the city.

One Mirror writer recently visited Naples, and was initially hesitant after various people warned her that it had a reputation as being a 'dodgy' and 'dangerous' city - but when she arrived, she was delighted to find that locals were friendly, the sights were beautiful, and the nightlife was great.

On the latter she remarked: "Naples' nightlife is second to none – kicking off with an Aperol spritz in one of the city's numerous bars, watching life pass by, before moving on to taste some truly amazing Neapolitan pizza, hailed as the world's best by many.

"We spent a thrilling three days in Naples, and every moment was a delight. Sure, it's bustling and crossing the road requires bravery and a certain level of recklessness, but the city is teeming with life. The city buzzes with activity, the views are breathtaking, and the locals are fantastic."
