What to expect

Naples is a unique mixture of colors and perfumes, be enchanted by the warmth of its people and the sounds of its daily life! Begin your journey at Piazza del Gesù, one of the city's most famous squares, a stone's throw from the historic center. Your first destination is the serene Chiostro di Santa Chiara (if option selected), where you'll be captivated by its historic majolica tiles, offering a peaceful retreat amidst the city's hustle.

Continue with a leisurely walk through Spaccanapoli, the long and narrow street that cuts the old city into two perfect halves. Marvel at the San Domenico Maggiore square and witness the harmonious blend of architectural styles; then, make your way to the Chapel Sansevero, home to Giuseppe Sanmartino's stunning Cristo Velato sculpture.

Pause to see the famous statue of the God of the Nile River, and take a moment to enjoy a typical Neapolitan coffee at one of the city center's renowned bars. Explore Piazza St. Gaetano, the city's oldest square, standing on grounds that once hosted the Greek Agora and later, the Roman forum.

Conclude your tour with visits to the churches of San Lorenzo and San Paolo Maggiore, and gaze upon the baroque Cathedral of Saint Gennaro, dating back to the 13th century. This cathedral, the heart of the Neapolitan faith, encapsulates the spirit and resilience of Naples. The tour at 10am is available in Italian only and includes a visit to Sansevero Chapel and Santa Chiara Cloister. The tour at 3.30pm is available in French only and includes a visit to Sansevero Chapel.

Nat Geo Day Tour: A Taste of Tramonti and pizza-making experience.

Discover the treasures of Tramonti on this National Geographic Day Tour. Kickstart your adventure with a scenic ride along the Bay of Naples, under the watchful eye of Mount Vesuvius, leading through Monte Latteri and Valle dei Chiunz, revealing Tramonti's hidden hamlets. Pizza's global popularity owes much to Tramonti's ancestors, who played a pivotal role in spreading pizzerias worldwide. As you coast along lush countryside, your National Geographic-trained guide will share captivating stories of local culture and history. Perched high above the Amalfi Coast, Tramonti treats visitors to lemon-scented orchards, chestnut trees, and terraced vineyards. Your first stop is the garden of Acarbio, a pioneering association advocating for the Amalfi Coast to become a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Here, you'll enjoy a refreshment and hear about ongoing projects, including the revival of the almost-extinct Rè Fiascone tomato, a key ingredient for pizza. It's truly inspiring to see this dynamic group in action, preserving the rural heritage and biodiversity of the Amalfi Coast, reviving local agriculture, and protecting endangered species. At your last stop, you'll dive into a pizza-making workshop at a local Agriturismo, led by a skilled pizza chef. As you master the art of traditional ‘Neapolitan' pizza, the president of the Tramonti Pizzaioli Association, a prominent group of around 2000 pizza chefs, discusses Tramonti's pizza legacy. Finally, savour your culinary creations during a delightful lunch.
