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 most

What you’ll do

In Naples, a city known for its ancient history, spectacular cuisine and, of course, the iconic Mount Vesuvius, your local host will lead you off the well-trodden tourist trail to the city’s secret network of staircases leading to parts of Naples your guidebook doesn’t even know about. From the hilltop district of Vomero, walk to the top of Petraio stairs – a tranquil staircase leading from Vomero to Corso Vittorio Emanuele. Pass between 19th-century houses overgrown with wild plants, stopping off at a terrace for a stunning view, and see a few of the city’s famous votive altars as you make your way down the stairs and head towards the Santa Maria in Portico, a late-baroque church just off the seaside promenade leading to Egg Castle – the oldest castle in Naples.

Renato was an excellent guide for us. On our two hour walking tour we covered many sites and areas of Naples, but he did it at a speed that we could accommodate at our age. Would recommend him as a guide.

Roberto was so knowledgeable and passionate about his Napoli! He found us, which I really appreciated and he took us to all sorts of interesting places and had lots of stories and history to share. I highly recommend this tour with Roberto.

Donatella did a wonderful job introducing us to Naples. She is truly knowledgeable of the city and is eager to share that. She will ensure that she provides you with the type experience you are interested in. She loves Naples and can’t wait to share that. We left with a true appreciation and love of the city.

My walk through the city of Napoli with Nunzia was great! She has a lot of knowledge of history, architecture as well as classic Napoli traditions. She gave me a ton of recommendations of things to do, and has been helpful both before and since our walk. Highly recommend as a solo traveler.
