We are a family of 6 who spent the day in Naples coming from Rome via train. We loved our walking tour of the highlights of Naples with Raffaele. Raffaele was very knowledgeable about his city. We learned the history of the city while visiting sites such as the palace, opera house, spanish quarter and the Cathedral of San Gennaro just to name a few. We sampled food along the way and truly enjoyed our day long trip. Rafaelle’s passion for his city is infectious and we all came away loving Naples!Walking tour of Naples

Coming by cruise ship, we had only a day in Napoli. Our first visit to this city could not have been better. To walk and listen to Raffaele was so absolutely fantastic, we could not believe, how much Raffaele knows about his city. All the historic facts he explained in such a interesting way to us. It was a joy listening to him. He also explained the todays live and showed us the little squares in the Spanish quieter and the old town. We can highly recommend Raffaele. Don’t miss this!!! Absolutely fascinating Tour

As a first time cruiser, and a first time Mediterranean trip, there are a lot of decisions that needs to be made. Gennaro was our first guide on our trip. His expertise about the city he loves truly reflected on our exploration. My wish was to see the highlights of the city, where the locals live, and to experience street food. He fulfilled everyone of our needs. He would say “whatever you want, let’s go“. I will definitely use Withlocals for any more trips around the world. Thank you so much Gennaro ,you made our honeymoon fantastic. Best excursion choice we made.

The experience with Roberto started 4 months before I arrived in Naples. We started our conversations about the tour day via WhatsApp and god knows I had a lot of questions. Roberto rose to the occasion with enthusiams, & patience, along with answers and suggestions that would prove to be the best day ever. His love and knowledge of the city of Naples far out weighed what we ever expected. He is a "Napolitano" through and through!!! Our Tour was the "Hidden Gems Of Naples" Tour. His expertise on where to go, what to do, and what to eat was far better than I could have imagined. Without a doubt Roberto is your go to guy! What to expect in 210 Mins with Roberto?

Dario is very knowledgeable about history in Naples. His communication was clear and easy to understand. He checked in with us frequently to ensure we understood and to see if we had questions. This is not a reflection on Dario, but we found the cost for the tour to be quite high, particularly as the price did not include admission to any of the buildings that were discussed.More than that…

Had a tremendous private walking tour of Napoli with the highly educated unassuming Raffaele over 3 hours. I had never been to Napoli before but in this tour I got a great overview of the history, art and architecture of this magnificent, unique city. This is a must do for any first time visit and made my few days there an enriching experience. Thanks Raffaele.Great overview of Napoli.

The weather was not in our favour. However our tour with Raffaele was very good. He knows his subject inside out and was full of interesting pointers. The tour we had gave us an idea of the things we wanted to go back and see in more detail. This we’re doing over our next couple days here in Naples. Thank you Raffaele. Naples with Raffaele

Raffaelle has a comprehensive knowledge and deep passion for Napoli and its long history, yes of course the tour included many of the city highlights but what most impressed us was Raffaelle’s understanding of what makes Napoli a unique city in the Western world- it’s history, it’s people and it’s setting. A fantastic and sympathetic tour guide. Highly recommended.Deep understanding and passion for Napoli

If I could give Raffaele’s tour more stars I would bc our afternoon walk about Naples was an absolutely delightful way to experience this magical city. Raffaele is incredibly well versed in the history, art, culture, politics, and undercurrents of Naples. That depth of historical knowledge comes to life through his warm and charming personality. He regularly checked in to ensure the tour was tailored to my needs and wants, and I laughed and learned along the way. I would recommend Raffaele without hesitation to any future tour-goers and, indeed, when I make it back to Naples I will book another tour with him. Magnifico!Fantastic tour of Naples with Raffaele!

We had the most wonderful time with Gennaro. He made sure to be constantly in touch with us and that we met at a location most convenient to us and then tailored the entire walk keeping in mind we had two young kids. He was patient and made sure the kids had a great time during the walk. I would highly recommend Gennaro for his overall wealth of knowledge about the city and his passion for travel and his experience of having lived around the world makes the whole experience a more rounded discussion and perspective rather than being too focused on just Napoli. We wanted to experience the culture and food of Naples rather than being focused on the main landmarks and Gennaro made sure we got that away from the tour. Wish Gennaro all the best and thank him for the great time.Wonderful Gennaro!

Raffaele was a superior guide. He is very knowledgeable, his English is excellent we had no problems communicating. He has an obvious love of his city. Raf was patient with our questions. He took us everywhere in the city. He gave us time to stop , rest, and refresh. He was helpful with our stumbling Italian. We learned many things in a relaxed fun afternoon and evening with Raf. We will certainly look for Raf when we return to Naples. 10

Armando was a wonderful guide to Naples! He was responsive and communicated throughout the process and shared so many interesting tidbits of information. He was super flexible when it was too hot to do the tour at the appointed time. Our conversations were a wonderful look into Naples and he was also very attentive to our needs with a hard-of-hearing guest, which made the tour even better! We would highly recommend Armando for any trip to Naples! His experience living in the city is infectious and will really open Naples up to you! Fantastic!

We had one day to visit Napoli so we booked a tour with Raffaele. Raffaele did a fantastic job of introducing us to the city. We visited many major sights and he has much history to impart about Napoli. Much of that history, such as that Napoli was once the biggest city in Italy, was a surprise to us. We visited the Spanish Quarter (quartieri spagnoli) and saw the neighborhood’s homage to Maradona at the top of a hill. Raffaele told us much about the architecture in Napoli and showed us how many homes are built around an interior garden and how the design of homes changed over time. He also educated us about the dynasties in Napoli. He introduced us to many food specialties in the city and took us to the local markets to show us how Napolitans really live. At the end of the tour, Raffaele had many suggestions about what we could do next with our day, so we were able to fill the rest of our day with adventures. Altogether, the tour with Raffaele was a brilliant way to get to know the city, and we highly recommend you book a tour with Raffaele if you want to get to know the real Napoli.Fantastic introduction to Napoli

Gennaro took us through a tour of Naples, hitting the “must see” places, but also showing the streets and places of Naples we would have misses if it wasn’t for him. He brought to light the history of this amazing city; he did so with passion and lot’s of insight. All we can say: it was a fantastic experience…Thanks to GennaroGetting to see the real Naples

Raffaele provides a terrific tour highlighting the important sites and history of Napoli. He is able to weave a narrative tying together the history of the city with the character of the people. His tour through the Spanish Quarters and the old city were particularly fascinating and gave us insight into the day to day lives of Napoletani. The history and soul of Napoli

My wife and I had a delightful walking tour of Naples with Rita in May 2023. Rita has so much knowledge. She beautifully introduced us to the fascinating history of the city as well as opened a captivating window to its present. One significant aspect is the fact that Rita is a true local patriot. She engaged us in such a way that by the end of the tour we acquired admiration for Naples in a way I couldn't imagine before hence! Highly recommended! Thank you, Rita!

An incredible experience. I booked this tour for myself and two of my college age daughters. Yana was amazing. She did everything that you would expect and hope a professional guide would do and so much more. She educated us about Naples’ history, culture and people. She shared the highlights but also enabled us to see and appreciate the many nuances that make Naples special. She is bright, thoughtful, and passionate about Naples. She inspired us to see through Naples’ chaos and embrace it’s many charms. She also went above and beyond, caring enough to provide great recommendations for my daughter who has Celiac disease. Yana will transform your experience. Fantastic Tour Fantastic Guide
