TOUR HIGHLIGHTS

Naples: is famous for its intoxicating mix of old-world charm and modern grit. This is one of the oldest cities in Europe, with enough art, architecture, and archaeology to hold its own against other metropolitan cities.

Day 1: ARRIVAL NAPLES

Upon your arrival in Naples reach the hotel on your own and check in (transfer available as an optional extra). 

Overnight in Naples.




Day 2: NAPLES

After breakfast at the hotel, explore the city at your leisure. Indulge in authentic Neapolitan pizza at pizzerias like Sorbillo or Da Michele, then explore the historic heart of Naples with a stroll through the narrow streets of Spaccanapoli, discovering landmarks like San Gregorio Armeno and Naples Cathedral. Take a journey beneath the city at the Naples Underground, revealing hidden passages and ancient structures that tell the tale of Naples' rich history. You can learn about the history of pasta in our guided tour or you can join our exclusive Spartacus tour with augmented reality (not included).


Nat Geo: The History of Pasta 

(English guide, operates Fridays from February to November, shared tour, starts at 8:30 am, duration 8.5 hrs). Discover the essence of Gragnano on this National Geographic-exclusive pasta tour, starting with a scenic bus ride along the Bay of Naples under the watchful eye of Mount Vesuvius.  Your National Geographic-trained guide will give you an insight into Campanian culture as you sit back and soak up the views. Your first stop is the Valley of the Mills, a picturesque ravine on the slopes between Sorrento, Naples and the Amalfi Coast. Here, a local volunteer historian and retired miller, dedicated to the restoration of the site, will reveal the fascinating engineering behind the series of mills, two of which will be exclusively opened for travellers on this tour. Enjoy a leisurely walk through the landscape before heading to a renowned pasta factory with deep-rooted traditions. You will be given a guided tour of the premises by the owner, before travelling back in time to experience Gragnano's past through virtual reality. During this tour you will meet and learn about one of the oldest pasta making families in the area, a family ancestry that is partly responsible for pasta's transatlantic journey to the United States in the late 1800s. Next, it's time to roll up your sleeves at an interactive pasta-making session, with Nonna Giuseppina on hand to guide you as you knead. Finally, indulge in a pasta lunch featuring ingredients sourced from the factory's garden, a true farm-to-table experience and a rewarding way to end the tour. The tour includes transport, English speaking guide, pasta making class, a glass of wine, drinks and lunch.

Nat Geo: Spartacus' World at Ancient Capua 

(English guide, operates Saturdays from February to October, shared tour, starts at 9:00 am, duration 4hrs). Boasting a strategic location on the Via Appia, Ancient Capua was a hugely important city since its foundation in the 5th century BCE. Your journey begins at the Arena of Spartacus, the ancient amphitheater in Capua. Second in size only to Rome's Colosseum, this amphitheater is older, better preserved, and less crowded. You'll explore the amphitheater's ‘hypogeum' or underground area. The areas here are far better preserved than those found at the Colosseum of Rome. You'll then visit what is known as the 'gladiator's room,' off limits to other visitors. Still being studied, specialist archeologists are still trying to understand the room's original purpose. An augmented reality experience, exclusive to National Geographic travelers, will bring to life the experience of being Spartacus 2000 years ago. After your tour, relax over a lunch lovingly prepared with local organic produce by owners who take pride in maintaining their historic surroundings. The tour includes transport, English speaking guide, an augmented reality tour, admission fees and lunch.

Nat Geo: A Taste of Tramonti and Pizza Making Experience

(English guide, operates Mondays from February to October, shared tour, starts at 8:30 am, duration more than 8 hrs). Discover the treasures of Tramonti on this National Geographic Day Tour. The day starts with a scenic ride along the Bay of Naples, under the watchful eye of Mount Vesuvius, leading through Monte Lattari and Valle dei Chiunzi, where the small hamlets of Tramonti await. As you coast along lush countryside, your National Geographic-trained guide will share captivating stories of local culture and history. Your first stop is the garden of Acarbio, a pioneering association advocating for the Amalfi Coast to become a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.  The last stop of the tour is a local Agritourism venue, in their rural restaurant, for a hands-on pizza-making workshop led by a skilled pizza chef, who'll guide you through the art of crafting traditional pizzas.
