Highlights

The most exciting moment of the tour is the encounter with one of the absolute masterpieces of world art: the Veiled Christ. Housed in the extraordinary Sansevero Chapel, this masterpiece of perfection and mystery represents the true highlight of the experience and leaves an indelible memory of Naples. Accompanied by experienced and passionate local guides, you will start the route from Piazza Bellini, where the remains of the ancient Greek walls are visible. You will continue along Decumano Maggiore, one of the liveliest streets in the historic center, admiring the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore and the suggestive church of Purgatory in Arco. The tour continues with San Lorenzo Maggiore and the Cathedral of Naples, which preserves the ampoule of the miraculous Blood of San Gennaro. Crossing Spaccanapoli, through lively alleys you will visit the Basilica of San Domenico Maggiore, before concluding the experience in the Sansevero Chapel, where the beauty of the Veiled Christ will make Naples unforgettable.

About Naples

Passionate and chaotic beneath Vesuvius, Naples is the birthplace of pizza and the gateway to Pompeii, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.

The historic centre, a dense grid of streets laid out by the ancient Greeks, is a world of churches, street shrines and laundry strung between balconies. Spaccanapoli cuts straight through it, Via San Gregorio Armeno is lined with nativity-scene workshops, and the Sansevero Chapel holds the astonishing Veiled Christ. Underground, tunnels and cisterns reveal the Greek and Roman city below.

Top-ranked sights in Naples: Mt. Vesuvius (Monte Vesuvio), Via dei Tribunali, Naples Historic Center (Napoli Centro Storico).
