From ancient to modern Naples tour with underground entry

A city split in two – you’ll be exploring the ancient and modern sides of the city all in one on this tour. Dive into Underground Naples to discover its historic roots, and see how they intertwine with the lively spirit of modern Naples wandering around the city. Maria Novella, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Picture this – Greek-Roman vibes, medieval charm, Baroque splendour, and contemporary coolness all rolled into one. Its roots run deep, but the city remains faithful to itself, and that’s what makes Naples so unique!’

You’ll feel Naples’ charm hit you straight away kickstarting your tour at Piazza Bellini. Then, brace yourself for a series of surprises as you navigate the vibrant streets of the city centre. With each twist and turn, you’ll come face to face with hidden gems like the Campanile della Pietrasanta – a quirky medieval bell tower that pops up unexpectedly among Naples’ hustle and bustle. You’ll definitely want to snap up pics of the Chiesa di San Lorenzo, dripping with Baroque beauty. Then, prepare to delve down at Napoli Sotteranea or Underground Naples.

Plummet down into the passageways, tunnels and caverns – with a glimpse of the ancient Roman city beneath your feet. You’ll get to see ancient marketplaces, public buildings and echoes of the Roman Forum. It’s like a visit to Pompeii. Back in the sunshine, soak up the buzz of daily life along Spaccanapoli. These streets ooze with Neapolitan charm – you won’t be able to resist. Wrap up your journey at San Gregorio Armeno and its treasure trove of artisan nativity scenes. Bursting with character, the church provides the perfect backdrop for those Insta-worthy pics.
