Itinerary

The history of Naples is perfectly legible in its urban structure, which maintains the signs of a city built slowly over 25 centuries: this is the reason why the town is amongst the World Cultural Heritage Sites listed by UNESCO.

Once in the Old Naples, there are plenty of things to visit or to do according to your interests and feelings. You shall certainly enter some of its beautiful but sometimes hidden churches – more that you can imagine in Naples as well as in Rome!

You will find great examples of gothic and baroque architecture mixed up with the houses of ordinary people.

Your private Naples Excursion will bring you to the area so-called ‘Spaccanapoli’. You will discover the real town: its people, the students, the food (the best pizzerias and pastry shops are there), the craftsmanship. Not to miss is the area of San Gregorio where you have an incredible display of items produced to decorate the Nativity during Christmas Time.

If you like, you can also reach the Cathedral to marvel at the richness of its baroque decoration. In the Cathedral, you can visit San Gennaro Chapel, worldwide known not only for art but also because there the Patron Saint of the City liquefies its blood twice a year!!

If you would like to visit the Sansevero Chapel please let us know ahead of time to obtain a reservation (closed on Tuesdays).

At the end of the tour, you can decide to stay on own in town for a traditional pizza lunch or you can go back to the starting point.

If we could give Gianluca ten stars we would. We met Luca right on time. He was a walking encyclopedia of all things Naples. He was able to give us an expansive historical and societal background of the area as we walked through the narrow alleyways and beautiful churches and sites. As a local he was able to point out many more sites than a typical tour guide. As we strolled down a market street we ran into his mother, father and dog who greeted us like family. Luca was able to give us real insight into the lives of Neapolitans. He left us with perfect restaurant suggestions as we finished up our tour. Kudos to Luca for giving us the perfect introduction to Naples.

Giuseppe is an extraordinary guide! Giuseppe’s communication from booking until meeting us for the tour was exceptional. He greeted us warmly at our Air BNB then led us through Naples incorporating all the points of interest along the way. The depth of his knowledge of Naples history, art and geography was very impressive, made Naples come alive. Giuseppe customized the day to our individual interests and helped us avoid the crowds. He took us to the Archaeological Museum of Naples, his knowledge helped us to appreciate the history of Naples and Pompeii. Beyond his knowledge…
