Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"I had a wonderful “Tastes of Naples” tour with Roberto, and I can wholeheartedly recommend both the experience and Roberto himself. He is incredibly charming, charismatic and easy to connect with - we clicked immediately. And although this was a food tour, it was much more than just tasting local specialities. Roberto also shared so many fascinating stories and historical facts about Naples while we walked through the Centro Storico and visited some of the city’s most iconic places. And then, of course, there was the food! Mozzarella, the famous Pizza Margherita, gelato… Roberto seemed to know absolutely everyone along the way. 😂 Everything was organised so naturally and effortlessly: we would walk into little local shops, joke with the owners, taste something delicious and continue exploring the city. It felt incredibly authentic, relaxed and genuinely Neapolitan rather than like a standard tourist experience. A special thank you to Roberto for switching to Italian with me as soon as he found out that I am learning the language and can understand quite a lot. I really appreciated that and it made the whole experience even more fun. It was a warm, lively and very entertaining tour, full of delicious food, laughter and great stories. Just book this tour with Roberto - you will have a fantastic time and leave Naples with plenty of wonderful memories. ❤️"
"I am so grateful that we were able to do this tour with Gennaro. It was the best part of our trip. He helped us fall in love with Naples, and we are planning to go back some day to spend more time in the city. The food was delicious of course, but what made the tour special was Genaro’s passion. He went above and beyond to be an amazing host, and was especially lovely with our two year old. Thank you so much, Gennaro! If you are thinking of booking this tour don’t hesitate. It will be such a special experience. "
"We had such a great time with Gennaro. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Naples. Before the pizza class, Gennaro took us through the Spanish Quarter to see the Maradona tribute, sharing the history of the area and fascinating stories about Naples along the way. His knowledge and passion for the city made the walk just as enjoyable as the cooking experience itself. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel welcome. We learned how to make authentic Neapolitan pizza from scratch, picked up plenty of tips, and enjoyed hearing about the traditions behind what makes Naples the home of pizza. The whole experience felt genuine, relaxed, and personal rather than like a typical cooking class. Our two teenage boys loved it just as much as we did, which says a lot! The pizza was absolutely delicious, and we’ll definitely be making it again at home. If you’re looking for an authentic and memorable experience in Naples, we couldn’t recommend Gennaro more highly. Thank you for such a wonderful afternoon! 🍕🇮🇹"
"Noemi guided my family group of 8 (with toddlers to grandparents) through the streets of Naples. There was something for everyone! She was extremely personable and knowledgeable. We walked away with insights on Napoli history and bellies full of the freshest mozzarella, frittatina, pizza, and portafoglio. We had an amazing time and would book this tour and guide again in a heartbeat! Thanks for your expertise, Noemi!"
"My family of four went on the Naples food tour with Gennaro. It was a highlight of our Italy trip! Gennaro was a great guide explaining the Naples regional cuisine. You can tell he is passionate about his hometown Napoli. The food choices were excellent but make sure you come hungry! Can’t wait to go back and visit again. Tina Ruggirello"
"We had a really nice time with Raffaele and ate a lot of delicious italian food and had great conversations with him. He also gave us some very interesting facts about the city. Thank you very much, hope to see you again to discover Napoli ☺️"
"Booking this tour with Gennaro was one of the best decisions we made for our trip to Italy. After giving him a sense of our itinerary (we had a 2-week hiking trip of the Amalfi coast planned with a small group), we arranged for Gennaro to pick us up at the airport, transport us to our hotel and then give us an introduction to Napoli's amazing foods. Gennaro was great about communicating with us and let us know in advance about Italy's historic heat wave. He offered to adjust our tour time to make it more comfortable. He was on time and gave great directions for our meeting point at the airport. As we drove to the hotel he took time to explain the city. When we arrived at our hotel, he arranged for us to get into our room early so we could freshen up before the tour. The tour was magnificent. Gennaro explained the history and culture of the city. And he tailored the tour for our particular needs, taking us through the Spanish quarter (We had a more traditional city tour already planned as part of the group trip and didn't want to duplicate that). Everything we tasted was amazing! I lived overseas and have never had pizza that tasted so amazing. And I am still dreaming of the fabulous buffalo mozzarella. We saw parts of the city that are often overlooked. Born in Napoli, Gennaro's pride in his city was evident. It was very important to him that we have a wonderful experience. It felt like a friend was giving us a tour. When we parted ways, he gave us some suggestions for areas to visit the next day. His suggestions were perfect! I look forward to working with Gennaro again because I know whatever he plans will be favoloso! "
"Raffaele was perfect. We had some great food and very interesting walking route. He loves Naples, has a lot of local knowledge and inspires people to want to return and explore further. Grazie mille Raffaele! Ci vediamo."
"I took a tour with my 7 years old daughter with Manuela. She was very welcoming It felt like a friend showing you around. Manuela knew a lot of interesting places were you can feel the history of the city and knew very well how to get the kid interested. She has profound knowledge of the history. For the culinary part we had great ice cream, pizza and sweets. All of this was very good. I can only recommend a tour with Manuela. You learn about the city and the food. my daughter absolutely liked the tour as well."

Imagine the aroma of fresh basil and bubbling mozzarella in the birthplace of pizza! This is Naples, where every slice tells a story. Dive into the world of authentic Neapolitan pizza and let a local guide show you the city's most delicious secrets. Your pizza adventure starts now!
Did you know the world's most famous pizza has a royal history? In 1889, pizzaiolo Raffaele Esposito created a pizza for Queen Margherita of Savoy, using toppings that represented the Italian flag: basil, mozzarella, and tomato. This iconic Naples pizza was named Pizza Margherita in her honor.
Authentic Neapolitan pizza is serious business! There's an official association (AVPN) that certifies true Naples pizza. It dictates the use of specific ingredients, a hand-stretched base, and a blistering hot wood-fired oven. It's a craft protected by tradition, ensuring every bite is perfect.
In Naples, the 'pizzaiolo' (pizza maker) is a celebrated artist. Their craft, the art of Neapolitan pizza making, is so important that it's recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. It's a skill passed down through generations, making your pizza a true masterpiece.
Want to eat pizza like a true Neapolitan? For a quick lunch, grab a 'pizza a portafoglio' or 'wallet pizza'—a classic pizza folded up to be eaten on the go. In a pizzeria, locals typically enjoy a whole pizza to themselves, savored with a knife and fork. Don't you dare ask for slices!
Before the Margherita, there was the Marinara. This classic Naples pizza is even older and beautifully simple, topped only with tomato, garlic, oregano, and extra virgin olive oil. Its name comes from 'la marinara' (the seaman's wife), who would prepare it for her husband upon his return from the sea.
