Must-see Naples in a day

Uncover Naples' hidden gems and top attractions in a day with a private tour, custom-tailored by a local insider to fit your interests.

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

It’s no secret that a city as historic as Naples would have too many attractions to count – but from visiting the Castel dell’Ovo, the oldest castle in Naples (and exploring the quaint sailor’s village and tiny port just below), to being blown away by the unexpected beauty of one of Europe’s most famous metro stations, you’ll experience 15 of the city’s top attractions in just eight hours. You’ll see the popular market on Pignasecca square, ancient churches, and the 800-year-old Federico II University – but more than that, your host will lead you to several sights you didn’t even know existed, like a street dedicated to artisans selling intricate, handmade models of Nativity characters and celebrities, and an impressive street mural by local street artist Jorit.

Alessia guided us through Napoli and showed us all the sights and interesting parts of the city. She listened to our requests and planned a tailor made tour that was perfect for us, from the Cloisters of Santa Chiara to a much needed Spritz with a local favorite, the frittatina. What we enjoyed the most was her warmth and attitude, which stayed positive regardless of the pouring rain: she had in mind alternative solutions so we would have fun in Napoli without getting drenched. In three words: a great guide!

Our guide Daria was exellent and we enjoyed so much, strong recomendation, it was so interesting and good time! She showed us very interesting things and places, and also we were able to ask questions anout lufe in Napoli. Daria is absolutely the best quide in Napoli. We had another guide Daniela, but she cancelled less than 24 hours before because we did not change time one hour earlier as agreed already one week before. Luckily we got Daria instead, she was so nice and professional with very good english.

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of Naples, which was led by Daniela. Daniela was very flexible and curated the tour towards our interests and what worked for us logistically. Throughout the tour, she seamlessly weaved her historical knowledge of the city and its monuments with the sites that we visited. If you only have a few hours to spend in Naples and are keen to learn as much about the city as possible in that time, I couldn’t recommend this tour highly enough!
