Valeria was so funny, knowledgeable and interesting. She has great knowledge about the history of Napoli, the food culture and she had a great sense of humour. We had great fun in this tour. Highly recommend Valeria.
Our guide, Daniela, was great! She was very knowledgeable about the tour itinerary, and about the city/area as well.
Fun tour where you will try some interesting local street food like fried pizza and pasta along with gelato and lemon cello. The guide was excellent and took us to some really unique places.
Very knowledgeable tour guide Valentina. Great food.
Very nice guide, who told with humor and gave nice explanations. The food was delicious and more than adequate.
Great evening. Plenty of food and drink tasting. Not too far to walk. Alex was a great host and full of information 😀
Dani was a great guide, organised, energetic, informative and a good sense of humour. Plenty food, so don’t have breakfast! Mostly fried food and a couple of drinks are included, so we felt we definitely got our money’s worth.
Other than our guide being a bit late and was visible on where to meet it was an excellent tour. Great variety of food, with plenty size portions. Do not eat beforehand.
We loved learning the history and culture of Naples as we did our food tour. Alex did an exceptional job telling us about Naples. We could feel his love and passion for the city. The food was also excellent along the way and we got a generous amount, we were very full by the end of it!! Come hungry!
Not just a food tour but a tour of the old city with cultural tips along the way Danielle, our tour leader, was fabulous. Excellent tastings of a range of local food and beverages.
