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!

Our experience with Renato in Naples was amazing. He was a great guide and very knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Naples and got to try some classic food from Naples. We would enjoy a day with Renato again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend this tour, ask for Renato!

Renato was a pleasure. He touched on history, culture, and architecture. We asked for an overview and essence of Naples and he did just that. Thank you Renato.

We had one day to spend in Naples- and it was our 50th anniversary. Enya was the perfect guide to give us a taste of what Naples has to offer. She was so knowledgeable and eager to share her enthusiasm for this area rich in history. She was flexible and adapted our tour as we were still very jet-lagged and it was a busy weekend day. She made sure we saw a little of everything, pointing out places we might like to visit on our own if we had time. We ended the time with a roof-top dining experience of pizza in a town square, a place we would never have found on our own, and by the end of our time, we felt we had made a new friend.

History, neighborhoods, heritage, insider tips—Alesia shared a wealth of information. When my phone was pinched, she chased after the thief and took me to the police station. Explaining that the thief was not from Naples because Neapolitans love visitors.
