Info Tour

Your journey begins with a scenic drive from Sorrento, traveling in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius until you reach the charming historic center of Naples. The first stop of the Real Soul of Naples experience is Mergellina, a breezy seaside district. Here, you will pause like a local for a proper Neapolitan coffee and a warm sfogliatella – the iconic, crisp, shell-shaped pastry filled with sweet ricotta that represents the true flavor of the city.
After this delicious start, we will dive into the monumental heart of the city. We will stroll past the majestic Royal Palace, the neoclassical church of San Francesco di Paola in the grand Piazza del Plebiscito, and continue towards the lavish Galleria Umberto I, located just steps away from Europe’s oldest opera house, the San Carlo Theater.
The Real Soul of Naples tour then takes you to the loud and proud Pignasecca street market, a place where colors, scents, and local life create an unforgettable atmosphere. Finally, we will explore the narrow Spaccanapoli – the famous 2km-long alley that bisects the ancient town. You will dip in and out of historic eateries, traditional laboratories, and local markets, sampling Neapolitan delights and discovering traditions that have been passed down for generations. By the end of the day, you will return to Sorrento with your heart full of the true spirit of Naples.
