Chaotic process to begin with (i.e. trying to find the right line and be allocated into the correct tour group) but afterwards all was good. The guide was friendly and spoke loudly to make sure we could all hear (this was important because of how many groups are in at the same time and pass by). The tour was super interesting and really fascinating to experience. Would recommend!!

It was really fun to see the underground system. Beware, part of the tour is through very small tunnels. You have the choice to do it or not. I decided to try, but needed to use the emergency exit (which is perfectly fine) after the first 10 metres. Glad to have tried, but no way I could spend 10 minutes in such a tight tunnel. Overall, great experience!

  • Experience a historical journey through Naples with your guide

Full description

Enjoy a unique underground experience with the official Underground Naples guided tour. Your guide will take you through 2,400 years of history, from the ancient Greeks to modern times, unveiling the “womb” of Naples from an archaeological, historical, anthropological, and geological point of view.
The tour includes a visit to the Greek-Roman Aqueduct, the remains of the Roman Theater, and the Summa Cavea, a new fragment of the Roman theater just brought back to life. 
The guide will speak English or Italian, or you can follow the visit in other languages, thanks to the free multilingual app that you can download at the beginning of your visit. 
In addition, a brochure in several languages is always delivered in order to follow the visit better. You may also take pictures along the way.
Choose the tour and pizza option to enjoy some tasty pizza at the end of your tour of the Naples Underground.

Guide had a distinct accent. Hard to understand occasionally.
