Highly recommended

Jose_D, Dec 2023

Tour guide was knowledgeable, good sense of humor and gave us more than history but the complexities of Naples. Sorry sir that we don’t remember your name but we will remember our tour! We were in Naples for only 1 day and are glad we took this tour.

Delightful

Corinne_P, Sep 2023

Millie was fabulous. She was a delight and very knowledgable. The tour took me to places I would have never thought to visit in Naples. The street art was probably my favourite part. Just seeing Naples in a new way was fantastic. I would recommend this tour to anyone looking to seeing a different side to Naples.

Like Having a Friend Show You Their City

Lynn_M, Aug 2023

My tour with Ramona was exceptional. It was not a traditional, historically-centered tour, but more like having a friend walk you through their city and point out their favorite spots. That said, Ramona did sprinkle in knowledge about the city's history at various points in the tour. We stopped at several places for spritzes and snacks which my partner and I absolutely loved. We also got on the subway at one point which was a fantastic way to get an a better feel of day to day life for those living in Naples. I give this tour a 10 out of 10 because my partner and I felt like we got so much out of our time with Ramona. That said, if you are looking for a tour routed in history and archeology, this tour may not be for you. Thank you, Ramona for an unforgettable afternoon - your American sister! <3

Can I Please Give 10 Stars?

When you tour with a local guide, you have an opportunity to experience the location through a different lense. Our guide Mariarosaria was absolutely wonderful. A native of Naples, her passion for her city allowed us to experience it with a sense of awe and wonder that I think would have been absent had we not had her as our guide. Mariarosaria was more than a guide. She was like an ambassador of the city. She also took such good care of us, going the extra mile to help us purchase funicular tickets and making sure we had her number should we have questions at any time during our stay. Many thanks, Mariarosaria!

Great alternative tour. Different and cool

Gregory_K, Jul 2023

Great, alternative tour of Naples. Really get a feel for the city and the art that is all around. We did Pompeii in morning. This tour after lunch. Perfect day.

An exceptional guide in every way

Leigh, May 2023

We had a private tour for my husband and I with Franco. Franco was exceptional in his local knowledge and fluent English. I am especially grateful because I have a mobility issue and Franco was so helpful and understanding throughout. We are looking forward to our return trip to Naples so we can complete more tours with him.

Evening tour of historic Naples

Lynda_C, May 2023

Franco was a wonderful guide. We learned some history of the city and different neighborhoods. Walking thru markets and stopping in a few interesting shops such as the violin makers shop, the booksellers shop. Enjoying a relaxing moment in the piazza. It was quite enjoyable stroll thru much of Naples. Franco provided a lot of interesting information on the steets that we walked, the piazza’s and the buildings in each area we passed through. Thank you for a wonderful tour.

Rita was great company, had a wonderful feel for the city and talked a lot about her passions - art, street art and history. We enjoyed exploring the backstreets of the city and learning a bit more about all sorts of things!

The best experience

Claudia_F, Apr 2023

Ylenia was our guided tour!!! We had a wonderful experience and time with her. She knows a lot about Naples’s history and we loved!!! I highly recommend her.

Fun day in Naples!

Alyssa_L, Feb 2023

Franco was a great guide! He took us in and out of all the wonderful corners of Naples and shared his love for unique artisans in town. We would highly recommend Franco as a guide for anyone visiting Naples!

Off the Beaten Track with Alex is a MUST!

Kiki_J, Dec 2022

Alessandro (Alex) was the best tour guide we could have wished for! Although we booked a specific tour, he was still kind enough to change the plan completely according to our wishes. Alex is super knowledgeable, friendly and funny! He answers every question and truly brings you off track :) I cannot recommend him enough!

Don't waste your time

sherresaymiller, Jul 2022

Rita was slow & not very enthusiastic. We had just landed into Naples & needed an excursion to keep us awake until we could check into our hotel. This excursion did not help. She went on & on about what all the graffiti meant through out the town. Not something we were interested in at all. When we stopped for a pastry she started smoking without even asking if we would mind, which I did.

The city walk was nice and interesting. The guide prepared and friendly. an experience absolutely recommended.

Authentic view of Napoli

Oliver_Z, Jul 2021

This tour provided me with a profound understanding of Napoli’s culture. Enrico was able to explain the street art, food, and architecture in great detail which left me feeling connected to the city in a unique way. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in an authentic view of this beautiful city.

Wow! See Naples from the Inside

Robert_C, Jan 2020

This is an amazing private tour that lasts about 2+ hours. Our guide, Francesca, walked us through neighborhoods where real Neapolitans live and showed us how they live. She explained the dynamics of life in Naples, its history, its architecture and public artwork we walked by, including the ever present graffiti. The tour ended at the eerie and spectacular Cimitero Delle Fontanelle.

Great visit to the other side of Naples

Linda_N, Oct 2019

This tour takes you away from the usual sites to where the locals live. I loved the new perspective!

Great Tour

peter_m, Jul 2019

This was an exceptional tour. My guide, Valeria, did a great job of showing the streets and sights of Naples. It was extremely interesting and informative about the city and its culture. Valeria is an A+ guide, very knowledgeable and interesting. I've never had a better tour -- Peter

Excelente tour... Gracias...

Nos gustó mucho cuando comimos pizza napolitana, las compras, las iglesias, y que nuestro gupia era conocedor y amable
