Experience Naples
Beyond the Guidebooks

This Private Tour was an excellent way to get acclimated to Naples on our first day in the city. Donatella was a great guide who gave us a lot of history as well as explaining a lot of the local customs. We saw a lot in our time together and got great advice for other things to see during our stay. I would recommend this tour to anyone new to Naples.

If you are looking for the perfect introduction to Naples, look no further than a walking tour with Donatella. Our family of three (including a 12-year-old) began our two-week Italian holiday with her 3-hour "Centro Storico" tour, and it was the best decision we could have made. Donatella met us promptly at our hotel in Piazza Bellini and led us through the heart of the city. Strolling down Via Dei Tribunali and the iconic Spaccanapoli was a sensory delight—everything you imagine Naples to be, from the colorful laundry fluttering overhead to the incredible aromas of local cuisine. We visited the historic San Lorenzo Maggiore and the stunning Santa Chiara, where we were even lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a beautiful bride arriving for her wedding! We finished the tour taking in the grandeur of Galleria Umberto and Piazza del Plebiscito. What truly set this tour apart, however, was Donatella herself. Having just arrived from California the day before, my husband and son were struggling with major jet lag and were, admittedly, a bit disengaged at first. Donatella was incredibly gracious and patient. She went above and beyond to connect with my tween, and once they discovered their mutual love for Pokémon and video games, the energy completely shifted! Seeing my son open up and engage with the city was a highlight for me. Donatella is deeply knowledgeable and fiercely proud of the Campania region. Since we visited around Christmas, she shared fascinating insights into local holiday traditions that we never would have learned otherwise. She was a massive part of our Naples story, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. If you want a guide with heart, expertise, and the "cool factor" to win over a teenager, Donatella is the one!

Donatella was magnificent. Patient knowledgeable and lovely to spend an afternoon with.

Donatella knew the history of Napoli really well and we came away with a sense of direction and where to go during our trip

We had a great time with Nadia! She perfectly tailored our experience to our needs and likings. It made our experience so much better than if we had ventured out on our own.

Our guide was amazing. She was what set this apart from other tours
