Hi! We’re the team at Around With a Local, true Neapolitans through and through. As tour leaders and local guides, we’re ready to lead you on an authentic journey into the soul of Naples.
Our goal isn’t just to tell you what happened 1,000 or 2,000 years ago, but to use history as a key to understanding modern Naples and the character of its people: our sense of humor, the art of getting by, and our philosophy of life.
During a 2–3-hour walking tour, we’ll visit the most iconic sites, viewing them from the outside so you can enjoy the city as it truly is—without wasting any time:
- Piazza del Plebiscito, the Royal Palace, and San Francesco di Paola
- Piazza Trieste e Trento, the San Carlo Theater, and the Umberto I Gallery
- Piazza Municipio and the Maschio Angioino
- Spaccanapoli, the beating heart where the sacred and the profane meet
- The Churches of Santa Chiara and Gesù Nuovo
In addition to history, this will serve as your orientation guide: we’ll give you practical tips on how to get around efficiently, make the most of your time, save money, and avoid the pitfalls of mass tourism, revealing where to drink authentic coffee and where to eat. The perfect experience to experience Naples like a true local from day one!
