The tour guide Alberto was very kind, patient, and, in my opinion, very knowledgeable. He showed us and explained the wonders of the city of Naples in a very relaxed manner without rushing us or anything else. I would recommend this tour to anyone who doesn't know the history of the city and to those visiting for the first time. Alberto is highly recommended as a tour guide.
