Good combination
Doug_F, Apr 2024
Only us and the tour guide so it was very close and personal. A little disconcerting when guide left us for the undergound. We weren't sure what was going on and after waiting a while we had to ask what was happening. Really enjoyed the undergound tour to see water in the cisterns and squeeze sideways through the narrow tunnel sections.
Disapointed
Pat_A, Apr 2024
Guide walked faster than we could keep up or at least wanted to keep up between the crowd and wanting to take pictures. There were four couples including us and we were the slowest. By the time we caught up at a stop we had missed most of the guides talk. I had a hard time hearing the guide over the crowd noise outside or when he was talking softly in a church. Last we did not realize the underground portion had some narrow spaces. My wife read on another description of the underground. She asked the guide if it was claustrophobic. He said yes, so she did not want to go in. We left the tour at that point. I was surprised that the stops for coffee and pastry was at our own cost. Not a big deal just surprised. Could have done with a slower pace skipping the coffee and pastry and getting time to take pictures.
Worth it

Giovani was great. Walked and talked and actually gave us more confidence to walk around after the tour. The underground tour was great also. Amazing what's below your feet.
Must see Naples!
Donella_W, Nov 2023
This was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy! An excellent way to get to know Napoli and all it has to offer. From the handmade street markets to the underground tunnels, this fascinating and fast paced tour gave us a great introduction to the city sights, sounds and its history. Both guides were outstanding, and their commentary was not only information but entertaining as well. If you only book one tour in Naples, make it this one!
Brill experience
haley_E, Nov 2023
Great little morning trip! Our guide was very informative and gave us lots of tips of places to eat and drink too!
Underground worth the tour but our guide did not take care of tickets like he should have.
John_D, Oct 2023
Tickets to Underground Naples tour were supposed to be included. But when we tried to enter we were forced to buy tickets. Our guide for the walking tour left us.
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Dear John, thanks for the review. We are sorry if something went wrong but entrance tickets are included in the tour. We will investigate with the entrance gate and get you back. Ciao.
Meh
Tracy_R, Oct 2023
Similar to the food tour but without the food. Guide left us at the underground entrance and we were told we needed to pay for tickets because they weren’t included, despite them being included in the description. Do the food tour instead.

Monica was very knowledgeable and friendly showed us places we wouldn’t have found. Really enjoyed the tour
Great introduction to Napoli
Annamaria_M, Sep 2023
Mara, our guide was great. She gave an historical overview above ground which provided great context for what we saw below ground. I recommend this tour for people who enjoy history, architecture and art.
Well worth the trip
Gordon_M, Jul 2023
Great guides and a very knowledgeable guides, underground fascinating. Well worth ticket price. Underground also worth the cool down.
Okay but they don’t pick you up
holly_a, Jun 2023
The problem was it took an hour to get to the meeting place. We also never saw the only thing we wanted to see. The underground part was completely overwhelmed by tourists. The guide was excellent but the plan was flawed.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Ciao, thanks for the review! :) However, the pickup is not included in the program! See you next time! Ciao.
Fantastic underground!
Barbara_E, May 2023
Very knowledgeable guide Giovanni did a wonderful job & gave very informative information about everything we saw. The Naples Underground was special. The guide in the underground was also excellent. So happy we took this tour
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thanks for the nice review! See you next time!
Interesting Experience
YurkShan_N, Aug 2019
The meeting place is a bit difficult to find for visitors, but the trip is interesting. We are all exciting while walking through those narrow long tunnels. The guild was good and gave us enough information to understand the underground world of Napoli. Worth to visit!
Response from Host, Aug 2019
Thanks for your review! See you soon! :)
Bad description; nothing beyond basic tour.
CaptMikeH, Mar 2019
Interesting, but just buy ticket at the door. No mention of pizza or anything else. Had to double-check to see we were even on the right tour.
Not properly advertised
Thomas S, Oct 2018
There are two Underground Tours in Naples, both starting from the same Piazza. The above picture is used by the other tour as a lead picture. It is not seen on the tour sold by this presentation. Indeed, we were sold a tour including a pizza only to discover the pizza location was not open on Wednesday. To make matters worse, the on-site tour operator sent us across town to another pizza place, which was also closed on Wednesday. Based on the problems, Viator did refund the tour cost. Thank you - but others should be aware of the misrepresentation in the tour itself and the pizza place being closed on Wednesday.

No optional transport and no pizza.Very unhsppy with the arrangement,there was no possibility to get a voucher for the pizza

Heidi O, May 2018
Delightfully fun tour and worth seeing. There are a lot of steps and some tight passages, so be aware that you need to be comfortable climbing all the steps, okay in the dark and able to get through tight spots. The only thing I would change is that our group was right in front a group of school children. The children were loud at times and would push ahead to border our group - making it hard to hear our guide at times or enjoy the setting. I suggest that if school groups are going, there be more space between them and other groups - also maybe they need more chaperones to ensure the students are respectful of others.

Our tour guide Maria was excellent. Well worth going to see the history of the old Naples and to hear the stories, especially the Nuns.
Well organised and very interesting...
JULIE S, Dec 2017
Well organised and very interesting. Our guide was excellent. This is a very popular tour and there were lots of other groups going round at the same time as ours. The lighting was atmospheric and gave a real sense of what it would have been like to work and live in the tunnels and caverns. Really enjoyed it.

T Hill, Nov 2017
Amazing! Gives another dimension to Naples! Highly recommend this tour. Just beware of 120 steps each way to climb!
