Description

Naples is wrapped... while its food and scenery command devotion, the city’s skulls and castles offer a glimpse into its violent past. Napoli, is an occult city, full of magic. A city where the mystery is hidden behind the art. A city where legends of ghosts still survive among seventeenth-century palaces.Naples is a city founded by a myth coming from far East. A city where the cult of Isis was the center of esoteric life. Walking through narrow streets, we will visit the historic sites of mysterious Naples.Sacred and profane, this is the Naples city with two faces, like Janus (juanuario - Gennaro). And before you even visit the cathedral where the remains of the saint patron (Saint Gennaro) are kept, you will stop to visit other souls, those "restless". The souls in purgatory, the skulls'c church. The city of mysteries and legends, you'll live a unique experience walking around the multiple lanes of this amazing town.

Esotericism, history and a bit of legend don't hurt anyone

Sometimes a little fairy tale-like but nothing to take away from the guide's competence, we hope to be able to do other tours since this one has already aroused a lot of curiosity.

Booking cancelled days later by the organizer

Reservation cancelled for overbooking with notice the day before the event. We had booked days before and went to Naples just for the type of tour. They dismissed us in a phone call of a few seconds trying before heading to other tours.

A visit full of mysteries!

Our guide, Federica, shared with us his knowledge and all the mystical beliefs of Naples, while strolling around the city center, in addition to some extra sights, which made our tour very intriguing and interesting. Thank you very much Federica!!!

Don't think twice! Take a tour!

I have enjoyed several tours with Raffaele. All have been extremely informative and he has pointed out things that would have not been noticed without him. Additionally, his command of history helps make what we see understandable in context.

A wonderful tour!

On the occasion of our birthday we decided to organize a visit to Naples that would allow us to discover it in an unusual and intriguing way. Esoteric Naples contained everything we hoped for. Raffaele, a young Neapolitan archaeologist, enchanted us by sharing and letting us discover his beloved city. The passion with which he led us ten Boys, including some from Naples, was indescribable. An exciting and overwhelming tour that we would not have liked to end! We really recommend everyone to try it and we look forward to returning to continue our discovery of Campania with naples grand tour!

The Old Naples You Won't Find On Your Own...

We pre-booked to go on this tour within hours of arriving from Western Canada, hoping to make the most of our brief time in Naples. Raffaele was incredibly professional and understanding about meeting us, as we didn't have our bearings of the area yet. This tour provided us with a solid orientation to Old Naples, by introducing us to local vendors that we frequented during our stay, excellent dining recommendations that never let us down and an amazing introduction to the architect, culture and history of our “home away from home”! In spite of our intense jet lag, this tour surpassed all our expectations and was one of the highlights of our time in the Compania Region. The Hidden History and Real Mysteries tour, opened our eyes to things that we never would have found on our own, let alone understood or fully appreciated without Raffaele’s passion and extensive knowledge of historical and contemporary Naples! Old Town Napoli is truly a diamond in the rough, with layers of history to appreciate that are often intermingled and existing alongside a diverse and vibrant contemporary culture; our time in Napoli went by way to fast! Our experience has inspired us to return in the hopes of exploring more of Naples and the Compania Region with Naples Grand Tour through either their set tours or through a customized tour as I believe they provide an experience that we won't find elsewhere. Grazie Raffaele!!!
