Private tour of Naples
Naples, with 1 million inhabitants, is the third-largest city in Italy after Rome and Milan. The city centre, the largest in Europe, was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1995 for its important historical past, particularly during the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, as well as for its wealth of churches, monuments and buildings.
Naples and the 'Pizza Margherita'
When you think of Naples the first thing that probably comes to mind is its famous pizza. According to legend, pizza was invented in Naples by the Neapolitan Raffaele Esposito in 1889 in honour of the visit of Queen Margaret. Three different pizzas were presented to the queen, who chose the one surmounted by the three colours of the Italian flag (tomato red, mozzarella white and basil green). This is how one of the most emblematic Italian dishes was born and loved all over the world. This is how Pizza Margherita was born.
Hike through the wonders of Naples
With this tour, you will experience Naples, one of the most famous cities in the world. You will have the opportunity to visit some of the most evocative places, such as the Santa Chiara monastic complex in Piazza del Gesù Nuovo. The monastic complex was heavily bombed during the Second World War and is known for its cloister with 64 pillars as well as for the polychrome tiles designed by Vaccaro. The tour continues with a visit to the Church of San Severo and the Veiled Christ.
After a short lunch break, the tour continues with a short walk in Piazza del Plebiscito and the next visit to the Royal Palace, which was once the private residence of Charles III of Bourbon. Then you will visit Maschio Angioino (Castel Nuovo) and via Caracciolo on Posillipo hill, from where you will have the opportunity to admire Naples, the Gulf and Vesuvius.
