2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: Italian

Welcome to the heart of one of the oldest cities in Europe! Together with your guide, you will cross the heart of the historic center of Naples: from Piazza Bellini, you will continue towards Via dei Tribunali, the Decumano Maggiore of ancient Neapolis, but also one of the most lively and rich streets of Naples. You will meet Cappella Sansevero, the treasure chest of the magnificent Veiled Christ, and the hypogeum of the church of Santa Maria delle Anime del Purgatorio in Arco, the cradle of one of the oldest and longest-lived cults of Neapolitan devotion. The Basilica of San Lorenzo Maggiore and finally the Duomo will be waiting for you a few steps away; in a journey between ex voto and shrines, the most important for all the Neapolitans will stand out: the ampulla with the blood relic of San Gennaro, the patron saint of the city.
* tickets for the Museo Cappella Sansevero and the Museum Complex of the Arco Purgatori are not included in the price.
