# Naples Street Food Tour: Discover Local Flavors with Expert Guide

**Guidekin's take:** A short walk through the old streets built around the classics: buffalo mozzarella, fried pizza, a slice of margherita and a shot of limoncello, with the history of the city between bites. Drinks beyond the tastings and transport are extra, vegetarians need to say so at booking, and it runs rain or shine. 4.82 from 448 reviews at €42 per person.
