We had the pleasure of experiencing a 10 tasting tour with Nino in Naples. It was full in terms of history and food and stories with many stops. Savory and sweet and robust - the experience and the food and conversation! I will let you be surprised with the various locales, yet I can tell you that i enjoyed them all. Importantly, he was an excellent at guiding directions as well as sequencing of the food tour. Would highly recommend ... Nino $ Naples - great combo for food tour

Where do I start? Nino was an amazing tour guide. We picked him because in his bio he said he was a foodie and boy did he deliver. Naples was a busy city with tons of places to eat. Nino took us to all the small places we would have never stopped in. We ate the best “Real” Italian mozzarella of our lives. Not sure I will ever see mozzarella the same again after eating such an amazing cheese. There is so much more I could say but this review would be pages long. We’ve been to a lot of food tours over several different countries. Naples had the best food we’ve ever had hands down. Book Nino you will not be disappointed. The best food tour we’ve had

We had the pleasure of spending three hours with Nino recently exploring Naples on foot - technically on a food tour but in reality a delightful combination food and history tour! The food choices he made were exceptional and all were from little out of the way places we couldn’t have known about. Such a lovely experience on many different levels. We had the added bonus of being the only people on that particular tour. Thank you Nino for a wonderful time! A genuine Neopolitan experience

Words are not enough to describe our experience with Nino. He is a great personality with deep knowledge and love on his field and this love is channeled to his audience. He gave us a day to remember and we are grateful for that. Perfectionist to the core a real gentleman who we now consider a friend!! The route he planned, the information he provided on every aspect were beyond far beyond any expectation. Withlocals is lucky to have him in its crew. Nino you are the best. Thank you!With THE BEST!!!

We had a great introduction to Naples with Nino. His approach was to educate us of why Naples is what it is today through its historical foundations. It was a very interesting technique which most could easily understand. As a foodie he moved seamlessly into giving an understanding of the development of the Napoleon food and wine culture. A thoroughly enjoyable 3 hours. A definite yes to using Nino. A great guide for discovering Naples!

We loved our walking tour with Nino. We enjoyed the combination of history and food! Nino pointed out so many things about Naples that we would have missed on our own. We even strolled by a plaque of a famous Italian who shares my last name and Nino knew all about him! It was very impressive. We loved that Nino knew all about the history the dishes as well as the city. Nino was very gracious with his time and made sure we had fun. I have a new perspective on Naples because of Nino and we hope to return one day to do more! Grazie, Nino!Lovely stroll and eats with wonderful Nino

Thank you nino for an amazing tour. Nino was really informative and friendly and answered any questions we had. Despite us being a group of 7 which can be difficult especially with us all chatting away, he held the group together and made sure we were all involved. The food we ate was delicious and varied. Overall we all had a lovely evening with Nino and I would definitely recommend! Lots of great food and information

We booked a 10 Tastings of Naples street food tour with Nino for the day we arrived in Naples. Our family of four - two parents and two young adults - thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our walking and eating tour with him! The food we tasted was amazing and he gave us lots of background on the origins of the various things we tasted, the history of the region and so much more. The buffala mozarella, the pizza, the pasta with ragu...my mouth is watering remembering all the delectable foods we tasted! He also gave us a fantastic restaurant recommendation that turned out to be the best meal of our whole trip to Italy! Nino was delightful, informative and also gave us some great advice beforehand on procuring Napoli tickets. We would book with him again and recommend his street food tour to anyone looking for a nice overview in Naples. Worked out perfectly to do it our first day since we knew what we liked and could go back for more!Fantastic street food tour!

This is the only tour of many with With Locals that was a disappointment. It was difficult to hear Nino and he seemed that he would much rather be elsewhere. While we agreed to skip one course, we only had six tastings. We ended an hour early. I have never before not tipped a guide but I felt that we way overpaid for what we received. Very disappointed

Nino led us through Napoli on one of the hottest days of the year. He told us all kinds of great stories about the history of this awesome city, in a very relaxed way while he adjusted the program to our wishes. We had to visit the official Napoli store together with Nino. He liked it just as much as we did 😅 Nino took us to some great places, and made sure we had a really magnificent pizza! Definitely worth it! 💙💙💙Fun, relaxed and detailed tour

Our group of 8 had an excellent experience with Nino on the 10 Tastings of Naples private tour. Given our largish party, the tour was an easy way to see the city and we loved all the food stops that we wouldn't have been able to find or navigate, without Nino. Nino had a huge wealth of knowledge on all matters Naples and really enhanced our experience of this wonderful city.Fantastic Tasting Day

We had an excellent afternoon food tour with Nino! We had a family of 6 that included 2 seniors and 2 children (9yrs and 6yrs). Nino was warm, friendly, calm and patient and effortlessly walked us through the busy streets of Napoli tasting the BEST food. We tried so much delicious food but it was just the right amount as were full yet still comfortable and we enjoyed learning about the culture and the pride in their food. Highly recommend spending time with Nino!Lovely afternoon with Nino

We took the walking food tour with Nino and he couldn’t have been better. His knowledge of the history, food and best places to get specific types of food was exactly what we were looking for. Nino was so polite and enjoyable to spend time with that it made for a perfect way to spend the last day of our three week vacation. The only recommendation I would make is (and I meant to do this before we met up but ran out of time) to let Nino of food preferences in advance. We are not big meat or fish eaters and had Nino known he would’ve tailored our tour accordingly. Lots of food for food lovers!! Great Experience

Nino did a great job on our 10 Tastes tour. As a longtime and enthusiastic local, he was able to tell us a lot about the history of the city and its people. The walk was at a good pace, all the store owners knew him where we went, he reserved food and seats for us at little shops which we would not have been able to do on our own, he is personable and friendly and speaks good English. He accommodated our schedule by meeting us at our hotel and ending the tour at the San Severo chapel where we had a tour booked already. Thanks Nino!Excellent history and food tour

He spoke so passionately about his home town of Naples and pointed out great places to visit and eat at that we used for the duration of our stay. Not to mention the amazing food that we ate at multiple places along our tour. We highly recommend taking a tour with Nino if you are in Naples!Fabulous tour

We really enjoyed the food tour. It was a great opportunity to explore Naples and sample the local food and drink and get an insight into the culture. The only disappointment is that the food tour had to be cut short and that we didn't get a chance to sample all 10 of the food and drink. Great food tour of Naples.

The authentic, locally produced food was a revelation of how it “should” taste! If you are from England you will never be able to buy pizza, mozzarella or ragu again!! Thank you Nino. Good company and fabulous food.

We were only in Naples for a few days and looking for a way to see the city and taste some amazing food. Nino went above and beyond what we were expecting and told us all about the history of the city and even showed us hidden gems as we walked. The food was incredible (we're still thinking about the buffalo mozzarella) and it really was the highlight of our trip. Thanks again, we'll definitely be back. Great tour that really made our trip

The 10 tastings of Naples was a nice way to start our vacation in Italy, and Nino was n excellent host. While it's clearly a food tour, Nino is also very well versed in Naples history and shared his passion for the city with us. It was fun, and tasty, having pizza in Naples, but the ragu was just fantastic. We did the tour as soon as we landed in Naples. Our plane was several hours late arriving and Nino monitored the flight status and was flexible on time. I recommend the tour an Nino as guide.Naples and food fun with Nino

Good sense of humour, excellent knowledge of the city, its history and it’s tasting gems. We are in love with Napoli, the food, the sounds, the colours… (cloud nine has found a name: Napoli!) all brought to life by Nino! No walking after a flag… he gives personal attention all the time. He is very patient and resilient. The tour should not be done when you are too hot or tired from other travels. It would be best enjoyed after a good rest. Kind regards Dick and MaraNino is a great host!

Three hours with Nino was an absolute gift. We only had a day in the Naples and I am so grateful for the tour we took with Nino. After our time together I felt that I had an understanding of the city (past and present). We went to the most significant places in Naples and where to eat, shop, and revisit when possible. Nino was engaging and held our interest the entire three hours (on a super hot day). He is a wonderful guide and I can't recommend the tour enough. I learned, saw, understood, and am grateful for all he shared with us. This is truly the only way I would go about visiting a new city again. Thank you Nino!Exceptional!

We met Nino at one of the great Italian monument; at Dante’s Statue. I loved the fact that Nino took time to explain the local culture. He showed the point of interest, and made us feel fully oriented in the city. The plans we had and have for upcoming days will go smoother, as we were personally shown by Nino, where what transport leaves and to where. And what museums are the most important. They are not always pointed out in travel books, as those are written to a specific public. The chaotic Naples seemed immediately easier to visit, and our preoccupations just flew away, feeling easy and safe in this city. Good tips about what and where to eat, were also great. As we two travellers have totally different interest, we found Nino fulfilling our needs. Thank you and see you in Milan Great historical tour
