Get ready to explore a hidden side of Naples. Just beyond the usual tourist routes lies the Sanità District—a vibrant neighborhood full of mystery, legends, and authentic soul. On this immersive 2-hour walking tour, a local guide will lead you through colorful alleys filled with street art, sacred shrines, and centuries of layered history. You’ll visit the stunning Hypogeum of the Cristallini, a 2,300-year-old underground Greek-Roman burial site (entry ticket included), and hear ghost stories and tales of the Bella ‘Mbriana, the protective spirit of Neapolitan homes. Strolling through the Vicolo della Cultura, you’ll experience how murals and poetry bring this community to life, and you’ll admire the elegant Palazzo dello Spagnolo, a hidden Baroque treasure. To complete your journey, enjoy a classic pizza a portafoglio with a refreshing local drink. This is more than a tour—it’s a journey into Naples’ heart, where the ancient meets the everyday in unforgettable ways.
