About this tour
Spend three hours eating your way through Naples with a local guide who knows the backstreets and best vendors. You'll taste taralli, folded pizza, cuoppo, crocchè, babà and sfogliatella whilst learning how the city's street food culture shaped its identity. Your host—born and raised here—shares stories about neighbourhoods, families and why Neapolitans take their food seriously. This is eating as a conversation about place.

- Crocchè and meatballs with tomato sauce and bread
- Babà and sfogliatella pastries from established bakeries
- Local-led route through residential streets, not tourist zones

What to expect
Your guide collects you and moves through several neighbourhood spots over three hours, stopping to buy and eat at each. Expect to stand while eating, squeeze into narrow shopfronts, and chat with owners who've been making the same things for decades. You'll eat more than you think possible. The pace is relaxed—this isn't a rushed tick-box tour. Between stops, your guide talks about the blocks you're walking through, family recipes, and why certain dishes matter to Neapolitans. You leave with a full stomach and a sense of how food anchors daily life here.
Good to know
Tell your guide about allergies or dietary needs before you start. Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring cash—not all vendors take cards. The meeting point is in your confirmation voucher. Public transport runs nearby if you need it.
