What to expect

A city split in two – you’ll be exploring the ancient and modern sides of the city all in one on this tour. Dive into Underground Naples to discover its historic roots, and see how they intertwine with the lively spirit of modern Naples wandering around the city. Maria Novella, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Picture this – Greek-Roman vibes, medieval charm, Baroque splendour, and contemporary coolness all rolled into one. Its roots run deep, but the city remains faithful to itself, and that’s what makes Naples so unique!’

You’ll feel Naples’ charm hit you straight away kickstarting your tour at Piazza Bellini. Then, brace yourself for a series of surprises as you navigate the vibrant streets of the city centre. With each twist and turn, you’ll come face to face with hidden gems like the Campanile della Pietrasanta – a quirky medieval bell tower that pops up unexpectedly among Naples’ hustle and bustle. You’ll definitely want to snap up pics of the Chiesa di San Lorenzo, dripping with Baroque beauty. Then, prepare to delve down at Napoli Sotteranea or Underground Naples.

Plummet down into the passageways, tunnels and caverns – with a glimpse of the ancient Roman city beneath your feet. You’ll get to see ancient marketplaces, public buildings and echoes of the Roman Forum. It’s like a visit to Pompeii. Back in the sunshine, soak up the buzz of daily life along Spaccanapoli. These streets ooze with Neapolitan charm – you won’t be able to resist. Wrap up your journey at San Gregorio Armeno and its treasure trove of artisan nativity scenes. Bursting with character, the church provides the perfect backdrop for those Insta-worthy pics.

Nat Geo Day Tour: A Taste of Tramonti and pizza-making experience.

Discover the treasures of Tramonti on this National Geographic Day Tour. Kickstart your adventure with a scenic ride along the Bay of Naples, under the watchful eye of Mount Vesuvius, leading through Monte Latteri and Valle dei Chiunz, revealing Tramonti's hidden hamlets. Pizza's global popularity owes much to Tramonti's ancestors, who played a pivotal role in spreading pizzerias worldwide. As you coast along lush countryside, your National Geographic-trained guide will share captivating stories of local culture and history. Perched high above the Amalfi Coast, Tramonti treats visitors to lemon-scented orchards, chestnut trees, and terraced vineyards. Your first stop is the garden of Acarbio, a pioneering association advocating for the Amalfi Coast to become a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Here, you'll enjoy a refreshment and hear about ongoing projects, including the revival of the almost-extinct Rè Fiascone tomato, a key ingredient for pizza. It's truly inspiring to see this dynamic group in action, preserving the rural heritage and biodiversity of the Amalfi Coast, reviving local agriculture, and protecting endangered species. At your last stop, you'll dive into a pizza-making workshop at a local Agriturismo, led by a skilled pizza chef. As you master the art of traditional ‘Neapolitan' pizza, the president of the Tramonti Pizzaioli Association, a prominent group of around 2000 pizza chefs, discusses Tramonti's pizza legacy. Finally, savour your culinary creations during a delightful lunch.

During your tour you will meet and learn about one of the oldest pasta making families of the area, a family ancestry that is partly responsible for pasta's transatlantic journey to the United States in the late 1800s. Then, it's time to roll up your sleeves and put your culinary skills to test at an interactive pasta-making session, with Nonna Giuseppina (grandma!) on hand to guide you as you knead and roll.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Spartacus' World at Ancient Capua
Excursions & day trips

Nat Geo Day Tour: Spartacus' World at Ancient Capua

Boasting a strategic location on the Via Appia, Ancient Capua was a hugely important city since its foundation in the 5th century BCE. Your journey begins at the Arena of Spartacus, the ancient amphitheater in Capua. Second in size only to Rome's Colosseum, this amphitheater is older, better preserved, and less crowded. Join your guide, a specialist in Roman archaeology, to tour the home of the Gladiator school of Ancient Rome where the legendary gladiator Spartacus made his daring escape and ignited his revolt against Roman slavery.Upon leaving the army, Spartacus was sold into slavery. He was ordered to go to Capua to enroll in Gladiator training school, where he rebelled against his enslavement and managed to escape alongside several other trainee gladiators. He became the leader of the growing group of escaped slaves who were ready to fight for freedom and autonomy. Against the odds, Spartacus and his rebel army resisted Roman attempts to overpower them, becoming a symbol of resistance against oppression.As you explore the amphitheater's ‘hypogeum' or underground area, you'll feel like you have a backstage pass to the gladiator shows of days past. The areas here are far better preserved than those found at the Colosseum of Rome. You'll then visit what is known as the 'gladiator's room,' off limits to other visitors. Still being studied, specialist archeologists are still trying to understand the room's original purpose.An augmented reality experience, exclusive to National Geographic travelers, will bring to life the experience of being Spartacus 2000 years ago, complete with reconstructions of the original amphitheater from the perspective of both the spectators and the gladiators. Step into the shoes of Spartacus, and feel the pulse of Ancient Rome.After your tour, relax over a lunch lovingly prepared with local organic produce by owners who take pride in maintaining their historic surroundings. The restaurant is conveniently located on the perimeter of the archeological site.
