Fascinating tour of a unique city - We can thoroughly recommend Nino’s tour of Naples. I only wish we’d done it right at the beginning of our stay. Even before we met, Nino was very helpful via email in answering any queries we had. He was extremely knowledgeable and so enthusiastic about the history of Naples; it was really nice to meet a local who loves the place while being aware of its imperfections. He seemed to know the answer to any question we asked, and they were quite wide-ranging! He came armed with a folder of maps and pictures, which really helped to show how the modern city connects to its roots. As well as the fascinating historical input, we learnt about the best places to eat, sampled buffalo mozzarella and gelato, were shown details we would never have found otherwise, and met some interesting characters. This tour made me want to try to find something similar anywhere I go in future.

Thoroughly recommended - Nino was incredibly knowledgeable and a lovely man to spend a very relaxing and interesting morning with exploring the sites of Ancient Naples. I would recommend doing this your early in your visit as Nino was able to point out several places to visit, eat and drink.

Well worth the money, with a private tour of Naples - What a fantastic tour this morning with Nino, he is funny and has a wonderful knowledge of Naples history. We were taken to various locations and given interesting details, all our questions answered with great enthusiasm.
We were given a taste of real pizza, with coffee and cakes later.
