I chose this tour to visit the historical center of Naples and it was a wonderful experience! The historic center is very crowed with tourists and there are many restaurants and pizzerias where you can rest and eat an excellent pizza! The tours lasts two hours and it is a walk through th churches and the main streets of historic center! The church of StPatricia is extraordinary! My tip:wear gym shoes!
