Tour description
Naples is pure passion, it’s spontaneous and wild so it needs to be understood and experienced with the right spirit. We will set the right spirit! Just drop your luggage and meet us in piazza Dante ready to enjoy our Napoli street food and Pignasecca market tour, we will take you to the hood!
What you’ll do
Imagine of having a Neapolitan friend who’s excited to meet you and walk you around his favorite food spots. Stop imagining, this is exactly our spirit!
Our street food tour of Naples makes its best at the food market of Pignasecca, an authentic open air theater where locals shop, eat and drink. You will feel overwhelmed by the wide choice of delicious foods, just let us manage that! We will select for you the best specialties of the day.
It’s going to be a slow walk around the food stalls to observe local vendors in their daily activity. Just sip a drink, take photographs and enjoy the moment.
After the market our Napoli street food and Pignasecca market tour continues around the intricate alleys of Quartieri Spagnoli, the residential ”hood” of Naples city center. Ladies hanging clothes, kids playing soccer in the streets, bakers delivering bread. Just a day in the life of Naples!
We will tell you about our food, history, traditions and also controversial topics. Our food tours are unfiltered, just Naples the way it is.
The Quartieri Spagnoli hides the “sanctuary” of football dedicated to Maradona, the legendary number 10 of Naples FC in the 80’s. You will be impressed to see how far football passion can go. This will be the chance to sit and have a traditional Neapolitan aperitive. No tours end without a glorious sweet finale! And we will treat your taste buds real good!

Reviews
Davide, was super knowledgeable about both the food and history of the city and we learned a lot, even some Italian sign language :)
I am sugar addicted and I still dream of that amazing snow flake pastry! Davide is like your old-time friend!
It felt like exploring food culture with a friend, authentic, informative and laid-back! Being vegetarian was not problem at all and I really enjoyed the food. Thank you Alessio!
Our guide Alessio took us to all the places he grew up going to. I wish i could pick a favourite food but they were all outstanding, even the tripe which I can't believe I even tried!!
