Italy · NAPLES TOURS
Naples is loud, layered and the birthplace of the thing you think you already know about pizza. These 15 cover the underground city, the archaeological museum and the street-food lanes, priced and clear on which run after dark.
Enter beside San Paolo Maggiore and follow an English or Italian guide below Naples. You will see the Greek-Roman Aqueduct, Roman Theater, and Summa Cavea, with an optional narrow passage and pizza meal. Expect 121 steps, cool tunnels, and about 1.5 to 2 hours underground.

Groups can reach 30 people.

Meet your English, Spanish, or Italian-speaking guide near Toledo Street and Plebiscito Square, then descend into Naples through old tunnels and the Neapolitan Aqueduct. Guides such as Alex, Eduardo, Alessandro, and Grazia bring the route alive with history, folklore, humor, and stories of its wartime use. Expect stairs, darkness, and some very tight passages.
“We started the tour at exactly 2:05 PM. It was incredibly interesting, and I found it exciting to walk through the narrow tunnels. My husband, who is claustrophobic, was accommodated well since there are larger tunnels that can be used as bypasses. Our guide, Giulia, was extraordinary. I would rate her a 10 out of 10!”

Walk beneath Naples with guides such as David, Lucia, Sabrina, or Martina, depending on the departure. You will see a 19th-century escape route, wartime shelters, old cars and motorcycles, fascist-era statues, and earlier caves. Choose the Via delle Memorie option for a longer underground route with 115 entrance steps.
“Our guide was friendly, lively and very informative. There were only 6 people in our group so it was very relaxed and plenty of opportunity to ask questions. It would be nice to have a little more time in the Bourbon tunnel part of the tour. I would definitely recommend this tour with the extension Via di Memoire over the subterranean tour in the old town as the groups are much smaller and the tunnels more spacious and interesting to see.”
Walk beneath central Naples with an English or Italian guide, descending into the Bourbon Tunnel near Plebiscito Square. You will see World War II shelter spaces, old cars and Vespas, traces of aqueducts, and stories of royal escape plans. The tour lasts about an hour and ends at a different exit.

“My family and I were very much looking forward to our street food tour and reached out to the activity organizer the day before the event, to inquire about parking as we know that it’s EXTREMELY crowded in these big cities. Didn’t hear anything back until less than two hours before the start of the event. At that time we had already driven around over an hour looking for parking and trying to avoid an accident in the chaos of the city…we were already driving back to our hotel when we received a response from them. Needless to say, we didn’t get to partake in the activity and it was…”
