How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Get a three-hour crash course in Naples, from navigating the old streets to learning the distinct character of each district (and squeezing in some sightseeing along the way!). Stroll under the arch of Alba Gate towards the old city of Naples, where you’ll see one of the city’s most famous Neapolitan pizzerias, Sorbillo, and stately buildings belonging to the 800-year-old University of Naples Federico II, one of the oldest in the world. Get a perfect snapshot of Neapolitan life on Via Toledo, a hive of Italian boutiques and popular street food, and enter Toledo Metro, one of Europe’s most famous (and beautiful) metro stations. Not feeling like an honorary local yet? After a photo opportunity with the backdrop of Mount Vesuvius and the island of Capri, you certainly will!

Daniela was amazing! She met us and dropped us off at our accommodations and texted me with her proposed tour route days in advance to ensure everything we wanted to see was covered. She was personable, warm and customized the tour to us.

With limited time in Naples before heading to Rome, Emi made sure that we got the highlights. She has a love for Naples, and now we want to come back to see more of the city.

We had a great time walking the storied streets of Napoli! Noemi, our guide, was very knowledgeable of the city and her people. We saw so many things we would never have been able to navigate on our own, especially a small boat ride around Castle Uovo. It was a great experience!
