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
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.

Great 4 hour tour of Naples! Our guide, Donatella, took our personal likes into consideration as she guided us through the new city center and the historic city center. We explored streets that we would have never gone down alone! Highly recommend the tour!

Within 3 hours we got an impressive insight and overview of Napoli. Armando is an excellent guide who managed to share the flavor of Napoli. From historical background, to architecture, food specialties, importance of football, development of the city and the improvement of safety until the special dialect and breathtaking view over the bay of Napoli to the Vesuv. It not a boring lecture but a very lively tour !

Daniela was very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job. Seeing the underground tunnels was a highlight. Worth noting that is a good 25 minute uphill walk to the meeting point at piazza san Domenico Maggiore, NA. From the cruise port
