Naples is a city of contrasts: the pride of its people and the splendour of its kings, side by side for centuries. This private tour tells that story through the places that lived it.

You meet your guide outside Toledo metro station and step into the Spanish Quarters, the grid of narrow alleys built in the 16th century for the Spanish troops, today alive with murals, shrines, washing lines and everyday life. Here the guide tells you how the people of Naples endured, adapted and never gave up.

Then you cross into royal Naples and visit the Royal Palace, ticket included: grand staircase, halls and court rooms where viceroys and Bourbon kings ruled the city. The story continues to the dramatic years of the Second World War and the arrival of the Americans in 1943, when Naples became a crossroads of cultures.

The tour ends in Piazza del Plebiscito after the visit: three hours to understand the soul of Naples, between the street and the palace.
