Naples Historic Center Walking Tour - the Story of Naples
Overview
Discover Naples through the eyes of licensed guides and professional archaeologists on a small-group (or private tour) walking tour through more than 2,500 years of history.
From the ancient Greek walls of Piazza Bellini, walk through the historic centre along Via dei Tribunali and Spaccanapoli. Discover Basilica di San Domenico Maggiore, the ancient Statue of the Nile, and the fascinating traditions surrounding the Church of the Souls in Purgatory.
Explore the Monumental Complex of San Lorenzo Maggiore and its remarkable archaeological remains, including Roman mosaics that reveal the evolution of ancient Neapolis. Continue through San Gregorio Armeno, see Banksy’s famous mural, and finish at Naples Cathedral with a visit to the Chapel of the Treasure of San Gennaro.
