# Naples Underground & Highlights Tour – Small Group Experience

**Guidekin's take:** Two cities in one small group walk: the streets from Piazza Bellini through the centre above, then the ticketed descent into Underground Naples, with a local guide and headsets when the group grows. Transfers and food are not included, and the underground part means stairs and narrow passages. 4.83 from 261 reviews for 2h 30m.

**Ticket and a walk?:** Centre walk and Underground Naples admission, 2h 30m at €29 per person; stairs, narrow passages and no transfers. 4.83 from 261 reviews. Trade-off: Transfers and food not included; stairs. (last checked September 22, 2026)

In our comparison: #5 of 7 in Walking Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

A city split in two – you’ll be exploring the ancient and modern sides of the city all in one on this tour. Dive into Underground Naples to discover its historic roots, and see how they intertwine with the lively spirit of modern Naples wandering around the city.

You’ll feel Naples’ charm hit you straight away kickstarting your tour at Piazza Bellini. Then, brace yourself for a series of surprises as you navigate the vibrant streets of the city centre. 

Plummet down into the passageways, tunnels and caverns – with a glimpse of the ancient Roman city beneath your feet. You’ll get to see ancient marketplaces, public buildings and echoes of the Roman Forum. Back in the sunshine, soak up the buzz of daily life along Spaccanapoli. These streets ooze with Neapolitan charm – you won’t be able to resist. Wrap up your journey at San Gregorio Armeno and its treasure trove of artisan nativity scenes. .
