These are all North of Rome


His intent is to travel eastwards, or South if understood him well.

Napoli, Capri, Salerno in Campanilla are superb further down the coast.

Else the Puglia region is very nice too. Even the architecture and the 
villages may be somewhat different from their northern counterparts (Matera, 
Lecce, etc). 

Globally the south is poorer than the north, and more rural overall - but 
the food is as good if not better (I mean less "sophisticated" and closer to 
my own tastes).


Hope this may help.
