Naples lives on two levels, and this tour shows you both.

Above ground, the Spanish Quarters: a maze of lanes built in the 16th century to house Spanish troops. Laundry strung between balconies, murals, street shrines and the voices of the neighbourhood are pure Neapolitan theatre. Your private guide shares the stories, saints and contradictions of a place you will never forget.

Then you go beneath the streets into Naples Underground, on a guided group tour: Greek-Roman aqueducts and cisterns carved into the tuff, later turned into air-raid shelters during the Second World War. A journey into silence and history, just metres below the bustling city.
